Thyroid & Metabolism

Byron J. Richards, Board Certified Clinical Nutritionist, explains thyroid health:

I have been helping individuals naturally straighten out their thyroid issues for over 20 years (read more about me). In addition to following the Leptin Diet and moderate exercise, the cornerstone of my success has been the use of three dietary supplements: Thyroid Helper®, Iosol Iodine, and Daily Energy Multiple Vitamin™ . In my experience, these products help over 80% of the people who try them.* We call these three products our “Thyroid Energy Package."

I designed Thyroid Helper® to enhance the conversion of T4 (basic thyroid hormone) to T3 (metabolically active thyroid hormone), while at the same time protecting the thyroid gland and liver so optimal metabolic rate can be maintained.* Iosol Iodine is a unique water-soluble form of iodine that has been in use over 50 years. It is the safest and most effective iodine supplement available.* Daily Energy Multiple Vitamin™  is a breakthrough in bioactive nutrients, containing all co-enzyme B vitamins and special mineral transporters. I designed this product to enhance cellular uptake of vital nutrients to carry out the instructions of thyroid hormone within cells so that energy is actually made.* It is free of the cheap cyanide-producing form of B12 known as cyanocobalamin. Cyanide metabolites are very hard on the thyroid -- only cheap vitamin companies put this low grade B12 in their products.

When trying to balance and maintain healthy thyroid function your two key priorities are less fatigue (a better energy level) and proper body temperature (not too cold, not too hot, and not intolerant of heat or cold).

All fatigue is not the same. Thyroid-related fatigue means that the idling speed of your body's car engine is set too low and likely to conk out or stall. Your head typically feels heavy or tired too much of the time, your mood may suffer, you struggle to make it through the afternoon, and if you sit down to take a break you may find yourself asleep. (Read more about thyroid-related fatigue).

People with sluggish thyroid function are most often cold, putting on extra layers of clothes and trying to endure cold hands and feet. When cells burn calories to make energy it is normal to produce 65% energy and 35% heat. If your metabolism is not up to par you make less energy and heat (leaving you too cold). The supplements in the “Thyroid Energy Package” work synergistically to promote normal cellular calorie burning -- improving both thyroid hormone function and cellular energy production throughout your body.* (Read more about thyroid and body temperature regulation).

Boost your metabolism with our comprehensive thyroid support package.* Thyroid Helper™, Daily Energy Multiple Vitamin™, and Iosol Iodine.

Most popular thyroid supplement to improve energy, mood, motivation, and weight loss. Specialty formula to enhance conversion of basic thyroid hormone T4 to active T3. Essential nutrition for anyone with thyroid issues.*

Aids natural formation of thyroid hormone. Safest and most effective type of iodine for thyroid function. Helps warm up body temperature.*

Co-enzyme B-vitamins are highly efficient in metabolism to help turn on cellular energy production.* These nutrients work extremely well with Thyroid Helper™ and Iosol Iodine.

Our most popular support package for weight loss. Take one pack in the morning and one pack in the middle of the afternoon to sustain energy and burn calories.*

Top formula to control cravings and reduce cortisol that may contribute to abdominal weight gain. It is specially designed to help a person feel satisfied and energized on smaller meals.*

Q10 enhances the use of oxygen in energy production within a cell, enabling thyroid hormone to carry out its primary function of regulating the rate of cellular oxygen utilization. Also helps fatigue with a heavy head (lack of oxygen to the brain).*

Contains high quality iron bisglycinate. A lack of iron in cells can cause fatigue because iron is needed to implement the cellular response to thyroid hormone. Helpful for fatigue, vertical grooves in finger nails.*

Contains sulfur-containing amino acids and mineral cofactors that support the metabolic activity of the liver, the key organ that must work properly for healthy thyroid function (T4 is converted to T3 mostly in the liver). Helpful for afternoon energy drop.*

Contains bioactive zinc citrate/ picolinate that helps thyroid hormone bind to the DNA receptors inside cells (these are called zinc fingers). Helpful for fatigue, loss of sex drive, weak fingernails.*

Contains MSM Sulfur and TMG (tri-methylglycine). Sulfur is required for the formation of the enzyme that helps activate thyroid hormone. TMG helps bring oxygen to the brain. Helpful for sluggish metabolism, poor mood.*
