ThyroVantage, Thyroid Support, 90 Vegetarian Capsules
Preclinical hypothyroidism occurs in 4 to 20% of the adult population. Patients with this thyroid disease typically have serum thyrotropin levels of 5 to 9 mU/L along with varying degrees of bradycardia, constipation, dry skin, hoarseness, fatigue, and muscle cramps. In addition, untreated hypothyroidism can have serious health consequences as it increases the risk of coronary heart disease in the elderly. There are many treatment options with drugs including low-dose L-thyroxine, nutritional supplements, and herbs that also have useful therapeutic applications. The amino acid L-tyrosine is an important dietary precursor for thyroxine (T4). Biochemically, L-tyrosine is iodinated by thyroglobulin to form diiodotyrosine, which in turn is oxidized to the hormone thyroxine (T4). Iodide is another important factor in thyroid function, with a daily intake of 500 micrograms leading to a significant increase in thyrotropin concentrations.
Advantages:
- Z-guggulsterone from Commiphora mukul stimulates thyroid function in vivo
- Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) supports T4 function in vivo
- with added pantothenic acid to support adrenal gland activity
- manganese supports the formation of 3-iodothyronine (T3) in vivo
- copper is associated with reduced plasma T3 concentration in humans and animals
