The thyroid works in close association with the hypothalamus and pituitary glands. The action of the thyroid is seen in these areas: Metabolism, energy use, protein production and the impact on other hormones. Specific nutrients support the health of the thyroid and production of the hormones T3 & T4: Iodine is a component of T3 & T4 – provided by the sea vegetables Kelp, Irish Moss, Bladderwrack. Selenium, required for the conversion of T4 to T3, is found in these seaweeds. L-Tyrosine is a structural part of both T3 & T4. Manganese is required for T4 production. Chromium for energy metabolism.
