Loading... Please wait...The thyroid gland, shaped like a butterfly and usually weighing less than an ounce, is intimately concerned with the concentration and metabolism of iodine to produce the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4), and thilodothyronine (T3). These are stored in the follicles as thyroglobulins until enzymes release them for metabolic use in the body. Their production depends on the presence of iodine in adequate amounts. Thyroid hormones exert a controlling influence on growth and on our metabolic rate. The metabolic rate is the speed with which the body transforms nutrients into energy. If the metabolic rate is markedly increased, Hyperthyroidism occurs. If the metabolic rate is markedly decreased, Hypothyroidism is the result. It is also felt that thyroid problems can cause many recurring illnesses and fatigue.T-100, an all-natural supplement has proven extremely successful in supporting the thyroid and normalizing its function.

Excerpt from Dr. Berglund's book, Tired of Being Sick and Tired":
"This is my strong thyroid booster. I use T-100 when I have a patient who has a long way to go and whose thyroid needs a great deal of stimulation. T-100 is the most likely to make the thyroid overshoot into hyperthyroidism."
**Our hope is that you can get your thyroid hormones to where they need to be, but managing your thyroid treatment on your own can be challenging. Dr. Berglund wrote his book, "Tired of Being Sick and Tired" to make that process easier for you. For this reason, we recommend reading his book in order to increase your chance of success.
