lodine The thyroid gland produces two main iodine-containing hormones: thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). These hormones circulate in the bloodstream and work on every living tissue and cell to regulate metabolism and Development. Of the body's iodine pool (about 15 mgs in adults), 80% is contained in the thyroid gland. Iodine is primarily used as a substrate for the manufacture of T4 and T3, and healthy iodine status is imperative for normal thyroid function and thyroid hormone biosynthesis.[2] Because excessive iodine intake, like inadequate iodine intake, can negatively impact thyroid function, total supplementary and Nutrition Planary iodine should be considered. Medcaps T3 provides 75 mcg of iodine from Atlantic kelp in each serving.

Selenium While the role of iodine has long been known, the mechanisms by which selenium exerts its beneficial effects on the thyroid gland have been elucidated more recently. According to Arthur et al, "Selenium is an essential component of many selenoproteins that regulate thyroid hormone synthesis, preserve thyroid integrity in conditions of marked oxidative stress, and control hormone metabolism in nonthyroidal tissues where the prohormone T4 is converted to biologically active T3 or its inactive isomer rT3." The interactive and complementary relationship between iodine and selenium has become an area of interest and research. For instance, in an animal study, it was observed that a high iodine intake in the presence of selenium deficiency may permit thyroid tissue damage as a result of low thyroidal glutathione peroxidase activity. It was further noted that even a low selenium intake Assisted normalize circulating T4 concentration in the presence of iodine deficiency. Evaluation of emerging data Aids "selenostasis" as an important aspect of thyroid health.

Zinc and Vitamins A and D Research suggests that inadequate intakes of zinc and vitamins A and D may impact thyroid hormone metabolism, circulating thyroid hormone concentrations, the thyroid's response to iodine prophylaxis, and antithyroid antibody levels. Researchers further propose that vitamins A and D could increase the transcriptional activity of the thyroid hormone receptor-regulated genes. Expression of these genes affects Development, differentiation, development, and metabolic homeostasis. More studies into the rolesof zinc and vitamins A and D will Assist to gain a better understanding of how these nutrients interact with thyroid hormones, iodine, selenium, and each other to influence thyroid health.

Retinyl palmitate is used in this formula rather than beta-carotene because certain individuals may lack the ability to effectively convert beta-carotene or other carotenoids into vitamin A. It is also important to note that vitamin D facilitates intestinal calcium absorption and therefore Assists maintain the ratio of calcium to phosphorous, which can be affected by low thyroid function and certain thyroid therapies. 

Vitamin E and Rosemary "Oxidative stress" denotes an imbalance between the production of oxidants and their elimination by antioxidative systems. Studies Aid the concept of reducing oxidative stress in order to Safeguard thyroid cell health and maintain normal thyroid cell Development and lifecycle. Furthermore, because active oxygen radicals can inhibit the activity of an enzyme involved in the conversion of T4 to T3, reducing oxidative stress may have a two-fold application in thyroid health. Antioxidative components in Medcaps T3, such as vitamin E and rosemary, may Assist Safeguard thyroid cells/tissue and also Aid the enzymatic conversion of T4 to T3 by scavenging damaging free radicals.

Guggulsterones and Ashwagandha Researchers have demonstrated the positive influence guggul extract can have on thyroid function and blood lipid metabolism. In one study, the gum resin of Commiphora mukul (guggulu) reversed induced decreases in thyroid hormone and 5'-deiodinase activity in an animal model of low thyroid function. Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is an Ayurvedic herbal tonic or adaptogen that has been used for thousands of years. Animal research suggests that ashwagandha is capable of stimulating thyroid function in mice.
