Bio-Thyro™ capsules can nutritionally assist individuals in normalizing their metabolism. In addition to checking their thyroid hormone levels with a blood test, you may have also have them take their axillary (arm pit) temperatures (normal 97.8 – 98.2 degrees Fahrenheit) in the morning when they awaken (but before they get out of bed) for 10 days or their oral temperatures three times per day for three days (normal 98.3 – 98.9 degrees Fahrenheit). Either way, as you know, these temperatures are important in determining whether their metabolism is within a normal range. Many practitioners find that today’s thyroid blood testing is not accurate enough to pick up all cases of hypothyroidism (low thyroid). Because of this, another category of hypothyroid individual called a sub clinical hypothyroid individual has been described. These individuals have normal blood test results but have low metabolic rates as evidenced by there below normal temperatures. They also have classic hypothyroid symptoms, but typically are not diagnosed due to their ‘normal blood test results’. Nutritional intervention is what Bio-Thyro™ is all about.

Biopterin is a rare vitamin that enhances the body’s utilization of Tyrosine. It is considered a co-factor and aides in enzymatic processing of Tyrosine to its various hormones in the body.

Iodine is the most important mineral for the thyroid gland. Iodine, along with tyrosine is used to actually manufacture thyroid hormones. In Bio-Thyro™ we use a type of kelp (Fucus vesiculus) to supply the organic protein bound iodine the thyroid needs.

Glandulars such as Hypothalamus, Anterior Pituitary, and Thyroid (Thyroxin-Free) are freeze-dried, hormone free, and range grazed bovine from New Zealand. These clean glands provide many trace factors, co-enzymes, fatty acids, amino acids, proteins, etc. that cannot be overlooked. They make a great formula fantastic. Here Bio-Thyro™ provides you with the target glands that regulate thyroid glands function.
They are provided to enhance the hypothalamus to balance its thyroid releasing hormone (TRH) output, to balance the pituitary’s thyroid-stimulating- hormone (TSH) output, and the thyroid’s thyroxin (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) hormone output. The importance of glandular support is not overlooked in Bio-Thyro™.

N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine is a special form of the amino acid L-Tyrosine. This acetylated form is rapidly absorbed and highly bioavailable by the body’s tissues. Tyrosine is involved in Thyroid hormone production with its cofactor iodine. It is also involved in adrenal hormone production, neurotransmitter production in the brain and the skin’s tanning compound melanin. In Bio-Thyro™, our emphasis is on enhancing optimal thyroid hormone production.

Copper, Zinc and Manganese are trace minerals involved as co-factors in enzymatic conversion of T4 “thyroxin” (the weaker thyroid hormone) to T3 “triiodothyronine” (the stronger thyroid hormone). The enzyme needed for this conversion is deiodinase and its activity is dependant on good trace mineral status. Without proper conversion of thyroid hormones the body’s cells would run at a lower than normal metabolic rate (burn fuel “calories” slower).
