@landyschemist: If you have an underactive thyroid, your thyroid gland is not producing enough thyroid hormones 🌱 The thyroid gland is a small butterfly shaped gland in the neck responsible for producing T3, T4 hormones which help to regulate our metabolism. Signs of an underactive thyroid may include: - Sensitivity to the cold - Weight gain - Numbness in the hands - Muscle aches - Tiredness and fatigue - Dry skin + hair - A puffy face Key ingredients to support healthy thyroid levels include: 🌿 Selenium: this mineral is required for thyroid hormone production and protects our thyroid from oxidative stress. 🌱 Iodine: This is necessary for thyroid function. Both the hormones T3 and T4 contain iodine! 🌿 Zinc: Zinc helps thyroid hormone production and supports healthy levels of T3, T4 and TSH. Another key nutrient is iron which the thyroid uses to convert T4 into T3 (the active form of thyroid hormone) Disclaimer: Consult your doctor before starting supplements. Results vary; not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. #hypothyroid #hypothyroidism #thyroid #underactivethyroid #weightgain #tiredness #puffyface #t3 #t4 #hormone #seleniumbenefits #zincbenefits #iodinebenefits #landyschemist #biocare
