Ingredients
The main ingredient, Gum Guggul Extract, delivers a powerful 300 mg of guggulsterones per dosage. Studies have shown guggulsterones to have thyroid stimulating activity, whereby there is an increase in the conversion of T-4 to T-3. Subjects showed not only a decrease in body fat, but lower cholesterol and blood triglyceride levels as well.*
THYROX T-3 also contains phosphates, which are found in high-energy compounds such as ATP and phosphocreatine. Thyroid activity is directly related to the amount of energy one possesses, thus it is important to ingest ample amounts of phosphates daily. Studies have shown that phosphates can prevent a decrease in T-3 and increase the BMR. Furthermore, phosphates have a positive effect on creatine storage, buffering lactic acid and increasing ATP.*
L-Tyrosine, an amino acid found in THYROX T-3, is used by the thyroid gland for the production of Thyroxine, a vital hormone involved in regulating growth, metabolism, skin health and mental state. In fact, low levels of L-Tyrosine have been associated with hypothyroidism and will trigger a deficiency of the hormone norephinephrine at a specific brain location, which will result in depression and mood disorders.*
THYROX T-3 contains Posphatidyl Choline, which emulsifies and breaks down fat deposits in the body, which is helpful in the prevention of arteriosclerosis, heart disease, gallstones and liver problems. Medical studies have shown that Posphatidyl Choline is also beneficial in the treatment of neurological disorders, memory loss and depression.*
