THYROID SUPPLEMENTS

Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland doesn’t produce enough thyroid hormone. There are several types of hypothyroidism. The most common is Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, an autoimmune disease in which the body attacks the thyroid gland. This disease can affect males and females, but is most common in women over the age of 50.

The thyroid gland is involved in regulating metabolism. Low thyroid levels cause your body to slow down, which may contribute to weight gain. Left untreated, hypothyroidism can cause mental health symptoms such as depression, as well as serious health complications.

Thyroid supplements provide necessary nutrients for healthy thyroid function. For those with mild under-active thyroid, they can nourish and strengthen the gland so it is able to increase thyroid hormone production. Talk to your doctor first before taking these supplements, as too much thyroid is also risky.
