Thyroid function benefits the nervous system by harmonizing the pituitary-adrenal-thyroid axis and detoxifying the body.
COMPOSITION OF THE THYROID CODE
Vitamins
- Vitamin B2 – Vitamin B2, also called riboflavin, is an important water-soluble vitamin that acts as an antioxidant in the body. It is related to energy production, participates in the methylation process and protects against oxidative stress;
- Vitamin B12 /Methylcobalamin/ – this essential vitamin plays a role in many important areas of health, including helping to convert food into energy and the health of the nervous system. It participates in the Krebs cycle and the methylation process, making it extremely important for energy supply;
- Vitamin D3 /Cholecalciferol/ – vitamin D acts as an immune modulator and more and more studies point to the significant role of vitamin D in reducing the frequency of autoimmune diseases;
Minerals
- Zinc /Zn Bisglycinate/ – zinc is directly related to the function of the thyroid gland. When zinc levels are low, no TSH is made, resulting in low levels of thyroid hormones T4 and T3;
- Manganese /Manganese gluconate/ - manganese has mechanisms to protect against free radicals in the body, which makes it an important mineral for counteracting destructive processes and reactions in the body;
- Selenium /L- Selenomethionine/ - selenocysteines are involved in promoting the antioxidant function of glutathione and thioredoxin, which neutralize the toxic effects of free radicals. Selenium is of great importance for the production of thyroid hormones and should be taken in optimal amounts;
Amino acids and derivatives
- N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine /N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine/ – N-Acetyl L-Cysteine helps reduce thyroid antibodies. It also supports our detoxification pathways (which are usually disrupted in hormonal imbalances) and quickly converts to glutathione once in the body;
- L-Tyrosine /L-Tyrosine/ – an important amino acid (component of proteins) necessary for the production of thyroid hormone. Without enough iodine or tyrosine, you cannot make thyroid hormones;
Plant extracts
- Schisandra extract /Schisandra chinensis/ – known as a popular adaptogenic herb, schisandra is used in Chinese medicine to promote overall health and vitality. It has strong antioxidant properties;
- Ashwagandha extract /Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal/ – when the body is stressed, the immune and nervous systems can be affected, making a person feel exhausted, which often happens with hormonal imbalance. Ashwagandha can help your body get an extra dose of energy and vitality;
- American ginseng extract /Panax quinquefolius L./ – this plant is an adaptogen and contributes to optimal levels of cortisol, glucose and insulin;
- Guggul extract /Commiphora mukul/ – the extract of this plant stimulates thyroid activity, working for the successful conversion of T4 to T3 and helping the body to carry out detoxification more effectively;
- Bubble algae extract /Fucus vesiculosus L./ – this type of algae is used in alternative medicine as a supplement (for weight loss and as a source of iodine) and in the treatment of thyroid disorders, especially hypothyroidism. Contains iodine and valuable minerals for thyroid function.
