ThyroVantage HT™

• Provides nutritional elements for healthy thyroid hormone formation
• Includes tyrosine and key minerals for thyroid function, including iodine, selenium, copper, and manganese
• Withania somnifera (ashwagandha) and guggul extract stimulate thyroid function
• Pantothenic acid helps support adrenal gland responsiveness
• Suitable for vegetarians/vegans

Subclinical hypothyroidism is present in 10% of the adult population and, if left untreated, increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. As a complement to prescriptive treatment, ThyroVantage HT provides the nutritional elements necessary for healthy thyroid hormone production, including L-tyrosine, an important nutritional precursor to thyroxine (T4). It also provides catecholamines, such as norepinephrine and dopamine, as supplementation has been shown to alleviate periods of stress. Potassium iodide provides iodine, which is essential for thyroid hormone formation and is deficient in 15-23% of women.6, Iodine supplementation in iodine-deficient women has been shown to reduce both TSH and cholesterol levels.

ThyroVantage HT includes two herbs known to stimulate thyroid function: Commiphora mukul, which improves T3 formation in animal studies, and Withania somnifera, which significantly improved TSH, T3, and T4 levels in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism in a prospective randomized controlled trial. Selenium (as selenomethionine) is also included, as supplementation has been shown to reduce thyroid autoantibody (thyroid peroxidase) levels in adults, both when combined with levothyroxine and when administered alone. Pantothenic acid provides additional adrenal support, with the minerals copper and manganese providing cofactor support for thyroid function.
