Overweight individuals commonly have a majority of the symptoms associated with a sluggish thyroid function. This is especially true for those who have a history of yo-yo dieting or difficulty losing weight by cutting back on calories and trying to exercise more.

The healthy function of your entire thyroid system is a top-level health priority. Sluggish thyroid is now shown to make any other health problem more challenging on top of being a significant issue in and of itself. A lack of proper nutrition for your thyroid system is a huge metabolic problem. How can your body make energy if it lacks basic nutrients that make normal thyroid function possible?*

A common problem is that your thyroid lacks nutrients to make basic thyroid hormone, known as T4 (thyroxin), or you may lack key nutrients that help convert the inactive thyroid hormone T4 to the biologically active T3 (triiodothyronine). Your thyroid can be inflamed or "stressed," which gets in the way of making T4 at an optimal rate. And your liver can be inflamed or stressed, which gets in the way of converting T4 to T3 at an optimal rate. Cells around your body require basic nutrition to carry out the metabolic instructions that T3 is giving them; otherwise it is no different than not having enough T3.*

Any or all of these simple case thyroid problems can be addressed with nutrition. Optimal nutrition can enhance the formation of thyroid hormone in the thyroid gland, the activation of the inactive T4 to the biologically active T3, and the nutritional ability of cells to utilize thyroid hormone.*

Thyroid Helper^® provides the selenium your liver needs to convert T4 to T3. It provides manganese to boost specific antioxidant enzymes inside your thyroid gland and your liver, so that both organs can function in a less stressed and less inflamed manner. It provides tyrosine to boost dopamine and nerve related thyroid formation, as well as the core molecule of thyroid hormone (T4 is one molecule of tyrosine surrounded by four molecules of iodine). Several herbs that are synergistic with these functions are included to round out the very popular Thyroid Helper^® formula.*

We use a water soluble and extremely biologically active form of iodine called Iosol Iodine. It is one of the most popular supplements to help individuals warm up. Iodine is needed for thyroid hormone formation. Unlike potassium iodide, which can clog the thyroid gland due to its poor solubility, Iosol readily washes away if it is not needed. It is hands down the best iodine on the market today.*

Daily Energy Multiple Vitamin^™ is a breakthrough in bioactive nutrients, containing all co-enzyme B vitamins and special mineral transporters. This supplement enhances cellular uptake of vital nutrients to carry out the instructions of thyroid hormone within cells so that energy is actually made. It is free of the cheap cyanide producing form of B12 known as cyanocobalamin. Cyanide metabolites are very hard on the thyroid -- only cheap vitamin companies put this low-grade B12 in their supplements. Vitamin B12 and folic acid are especially important for the enzymes that make thyroid hormone. A lack of B12 is commonly found in those who struggle with thyroid function (along with poor mood).*
