Feature Ingredients
- L-Tyrosine - is a precursor to T4
-
Ashwaghanda promotes T48; pantothenic acid helps the adrenal gland in responsiveness9, copper11 is linked to decresed plasma T3 concentrations, manganese supports T310; and iodine and selenium are additional thyroid and adrenal supporting nutrients.
- Subclinical hypothyroidism (SHT) has been reported to present in 4 to 20% of the adult population.1 Patients with this thyroid disorder typically present with a serum TSH that can range from 5 to 9 mU/L along with varying degrees of symptomatology including bradycardia, constipation, dry skin, hoarseness, fatigue and muscle cramps.2,3
- In addition, untreated SHT may have significant health consequences as it increases the risk for coronary heart disease (dyslipidemia, endothelial vascular dysfunction) in adults.4
- While there are a number of prescriptive treatment options including low doses of L-thyroxine or whole gland thyroid, both nutritional and herbal remedies are useful therapeutic adjuncts.
- The amino acid L-tyrosine, as found in ThyroVantage HT, is an important nutritional precursor for thyroxine (T4). Biochemically, L-tyrosine is iodinated from thyroglobulin to form 3,5 diiodotyrosine which in turn is oxidized to the hormone thyroxine (T4).5
-
Iodide is another important factor in thyroid function with the oral administration of 500 mcg per day resulting in a significant increase in TRH-stimulated serum TSH concentrations.6
