This is accomplished by supporting each of the seven steps involved in thyroid function: providing bioavailable iodine for thyrocytes; promoting iodine uptake by thyrocytes through interactions with sodium-iodide-symporter (NIS) proteins; promoting triiodothyronine (T3) & thyroxine (T4) production and secretion from thyrocytes; promoting conversion of T4 to the more bioactive T3 by liver cells and other peripheral cells; promoting RXR/TR heterodimerization of thyroid receptors on target cells; promoting binding of thyroid hormone receptors to DNA by RXR/TR heterodimers; and promoting action of T3 on target gene expression. This formula also provides antioxidants that help protect against oxidative damage caused by free radicals.
Indications
Helps in the function of the thyroid gland. Helps to prevent iodine deficiency, source of antioxidants.
