THYROID COMPLEX

The butterfly organ: the thyroid gland

Butterfly-shaped, it nestles against the windpipe below the larynx - our thyroid gland. And without it, our body would be in chaos, because this small organ influences almost the entire organism: many important metabolic processes, the cardiovascular system, sweat and sebaceous gland production, brain activity and even our psyche.

More precisely, it is these two thyroid hormones:
thyroxine and the resulting triiodothyronine.

You are probably more familiar with them under the terms T4 and T3. They have the short names because thyroxine has four iodine atoms and triiodothyronine has three.

A healthy gland produces around 80 to 100 micrograms of T4 and 10 to 50 micrograms of T3 every day. This may not sound like much at first, but if this hormone production becomes imbalanced, it can have serious consequences. We are talking about hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.

Hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism - what happens in the body?

If the function of the thyroid gland is impaired, this can have many different causes. Iodine deficiency is a particularly common cause, but autoimmune diseases such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis or Graves' disease can also be one of the possible triggers.

If you want to be sure, a blood test can provide you with information about the concentration of thyroid hormones in your body. Another option is an ultrasound scan, which will reveal the size and structure of the organ.

Hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can lead to various symptoms.

If the production of the hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) is too low, the metabolic processes slow down as absorbed nutrients cannot be converted into energy. This impaired energy metabolism can lead to sluggish bowel function, weight gain or even tiredness and frequent chills in the case of an underactive thyroid.

If, on the other hand, the hormone levels are above normal, the metabolic processes in the body run at full speed. It is not uncommon for hyperthyroidism to cause diarrhea, weight loss, palpitations and increased sweating.

As you can see, a balance of thyroid hormones is crucial for our general well-being.

Your thyroid trio: iodine from kelp + selenium + L-tyrosine

L-tyrosine, iodine and selenium work together as crucial building blocks for healthy thyroid function.

The amino acid L-tyrosine forms the structural framework for the thyroid hormones T3 and T4. The next step is the addition of iodine to this basic framework. Only then are the actual hormones produced. However, they only become fully effective when they are activated with the help of selenium-containing enzymes.

The thyroid gland can therefore only produce, convert and activate the hormones efficiently if all three nutrients - L-tyrosine, iodine and selenium - are sufficiently present.

In addition to 200 mg L-tyrosine, our thyroid complex contains 100% of the recommended daily requirement of iodine and selenium - combined in one daily capsule. The iodine is extracted from knotted seaweed (Ascophyllum nodosum), a type of brown algae that is particularly rich in iodine. These large marine algae, also known as kelp, are mainly found in the North Atlantic and in the Baltic and North Seas.
Pure nature for your "butterfly".

Kelp is also known for its ability to gently support digestion*, so you are doing something good for your intestinal function at the same time.
But our thyroid capsules from Pure Ella offer you even more ...

Thyme herb - plant power for immune balance and well-being

Although Thymus vulgaris - the botanical name - does not contribute directly to the formation or activation of thyroid hormones like iodine, selenium and L-tyrosine, it is a very valuable supplement.

You may already be familiar with thyme as a beneficial herbal remedy for colds. This is due to its essential oils, especially thymol and carvacrol. The extract from the aromatic leaves has been known for centuries to support the immune system and the upper respiratory tract.* A balanced immune response is also important for the well-being of the thyroid gland - especially for sensitive or stressed metabolic systems.

As a herbal supplement, thyme can help you to gently support your body.

All 8 B vitamins - for energy and metabolism

Do you often feel tired and listless? Is your digestion sluggish and do you sometimes put on weight even though you don't eat any more or differently than usual?

If nutrients from your meals can no longer be converted into energy normally, this also affects other metabolic processes. B vitamins in particular play a decisive role in the utilization of food, i.e. in our body's energy metabolism.

In our thyroid complex you will find a balanced combination of all eight existing B vitamins - these are

• Vitamin B1 (thiamine)
• Vitamin B2 (riboflavin)
• Vitamin B3 (niacin)
• Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid)
• Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine)
• Vitamin B7 (biotin)
• Vitamin B9 (folate)
• Vitamin B12 (cobalamin)

If you supply your body with enough B vitamins, this can help you to achieve a normal energy metabolism and reduce tiredness.* You may know biotin more as a "beauty vitamin" for skin, hair and nails. However, it also supports the metabolism of macronutrients - i.e. carbohydrates (sugar), protein and fats.*
