Nutritional and botanical support for healthy thyroid function in a non-glandular formulation. Thyroid hormones regulate the metabolism of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, influencing how these macronutrients produce energy. A deficiency or excess of thyroid hormones can have far-reaching effects. For example, high cortisol levels can interfere with thyroid function, leading to low thyroxine (T4) levels or poor conversion of T4 to triiodothyronine (T3), the active form. Each thyroid hormone has multiple important functions in the body; for example, T4 supports cardiac output, heart rate, respiratory rate, and basal metabolic rate—a low basal metabolic rate can lead to fatigue, chills, and difficulty losing weight. Thyrocsin provides nutritional and botanical support for healthy thyroid function, the conversion of T4 to T3, and normal cortisol levels.* This non-glandular thyroid support formula is only available from Thorne. Thorne's Thyrocsin formula contains key thyroid-supporting ingredients, including iodine, which is needed for T4 formation, and L-tyrosine, which is a necessary component for both T4 and T3 formation.* Animal studies have indicated that ashwagandha, an Ayurvedic herb, may increase T4 concentrations. * Thyrocsin also contains several nutrient cofactors needed for the conversion of T4 to T3, including the minerals selenium, zinc, and copper.* Thyrocsin contains vitamin B12, as a deficiency of this vitamin appears to interfere with thyroid hormone activity.* The conversion of T4 to T3 may be inhibited by heavy substances, such as hydrochloric acid, vitamin C, and vitamin E. Vitamin C may also be inhibited by heavy substances, such as hydrochloric acid, vitamin C, and vitamin E.
