Description
Thyroid Px is a balanced blend of minerals and botanicals designed to support the healthy functioning of the thyroid gland while simultaneously maintaining healthy metabolic function. Thyroid Px optimizes thyroid function, normal body temperature and general metabolic rate.
This formula can help stabilize thyroid peroxidase immunoglobulins which is essential for normal thyroid activity. The powerful antioxidants selenium and zinc, as well as the myrrh guggul gum resin, help neutralize free radicals that affect iodothryonine-5'-monodeiodinase enzyme activity, which is involved in the conversion of T4 to the active T3 hormone.
Iris species contain oleoresins in their roots and are historically claimed to move fluid (lymph). Myrrh Gum Resin is a powerful adaptogen which not only augments the thyroid, but also the liver and kidney. Studies suggest that Commiphora's constituents may help to increase iodine metabolism in the thyroid and T4-T3 conversion in peripheral tissues. Given the important role iodine plays in thyroid function, Thyroid Px includes 12 mg of Potassium iodide in 2 capsules.

Suggested Use
1 to 2 capsules twice daily, or as recommended by your healthcare practitioner. Can be taken with or without food.
Note
Ingestion of iodine and/or iodide has been associated with heart palpitations, acne-like skin lesions, headache in the frontal sinus cavities, and unpleasant brassy taste, as well as increased salivation and sneezing. Some sensitive individuals may not tolerate high doses of iodine, even when clinically indicated. Iodine supplementation indirectly stimulates TSH production which increases the absorption of iodine into the thyroid gland. While Thyroid Px may cause a transient increase of TSH, it simultaneously maintains healthy thyroid hormone levels in most patients, unless the patient is hypothyroid. High doses of iodine, administered to a small subsection of patients with Hashimoto's Disease, have been found to potentially aggravate the disease. In these cases where T4 levels drop, discontinue use. Thyroid Px is not a replacement for thyroid hormone therapy.
Warnings
Due to potential drug-herbal interactions, tell your physician about any medications you are taking. Do not exceed recommended amount. Do not take with low blood pressure. In very rare cases this product may potentially lower blood pressure.
Not to be taken during pregnancy. Discontinue use if allergic reaction occurs.
