Thyrocsin 60 Vegetarian Capsules

Thyrocsin™ by Thorne Research offers nutritional support of thyroid function in each easy-to-swallow vegetarian capsule. Thyrocsin contains the nutrients and botanicals that have been shown to enhance T4 production. It also provides the key nutrients to allow for peripheral conversion of the T4 to T3. This supplement can help optimize metabolism, but possibly the most important part about Thyrocsin is that it does all this in a unique and non-glandular formulation.

About T4 and T3 in Thyrocsin by Thorne Research

T4 (thyroxine) and T3 (triiodothyronine) are both hormones that are produced by the body’s thyroid gland. Both hormones are absolutely essential to the proper development of all of the cells within the body. These hormones are responsible for regulating the metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, and they affect how these compounds produce energy. That’s how they work together, but on their own, they also have important functions. T4 supports heart rate, cardiac output, respirator rate and basal metabolic rate (BMR). If you are experiencing a low BMR, you may be exhibiting symptoms of fatigue, chills, or you might be having trouble losing weight.

How Can Thyrocsin Help?

Thyrocsin, by Thorne Research, works by providing supportive nutrients to help your thyroid gland function normally. But that’s not all it does: Thyrocsin also provides the nutrients that are necessary for the body to convert T4 to T3 in the tissues that surround the thyroid gland.

Iodine – Iodine is one of the nutrients that are essential for the formation of T4

L-tyrosine – L-tyrosine is another nutrient that is essential for the formulation of T4, but it is also necessary for T3 formulation.

Ashwagandha – Animal studies have indicated that ashwagandha (an herb that is commonly used in Ayurvedic medical practice) can increase concentrations of T4.

B12 – When one is suffering from a B12 deficiency, it may also cause interference with thyroid hormone activity. That is why Thorne included B12 in this supplement.

Zinc, copper and selenium are also included because they are necessary for the body to convert T4 to T3.

Vitamins C and E were added for their antioxidant effects. This is because it is known that the conversion of T4 to T3 can be inhibited by heavy metal toxicity and lipid peroxidation, both of which can be lessened by antioxidants.

The thyroid hormones are involved with metabolism throughout the body, so that is why a deficiency or an excess can have such far-reaching and devastating effects. If your cortisol levels are too high, that can interfere with thyroid function, which can result in low T4 or poor conversion of T4 to its active form, T3.

Studies have shown that nutrient supplementation, such as with the nutrients you’ll fine in Thyrocsin by Thorne Research, can be of benefit to people who have excess cortisol being produced in the body.

Take two capsules of Thyrocsin two times daily, or as directed by your doctor.
