Vitamin #1 that improves your thyroid (how to take it)
Today we're talking about the number one vitamin for the thyroid, essential vitamins if you suffer from a thyroid condition, whether it's hypothyroidism or underactive thyroid. Let's take a quick look at the best minerals and vitamins for the thyroid gland and how to consume them.
Vitamins and minerals:
1. Selenium. Selenium is a mineral that the thyroid gland uses to perform its function. We need 55 mcg of selenium per day; it can be obtained through diet or by taking a supplement.
2. Zinc. Zinc is another essential mineral for the thyroid. It helps reduce symptoms of thyroid conditions and is involved in the production of thyroid hormones.
3. Vitamins B6 and B12. These B vitamins are what the thyroid uses to perform its function of producing T3 and T4. Consume them for a healthy thyroid.
4. Vitamin D. A lack of vitamin D is associated with the development of thyroid disease. Consuming or synthesizing it is essential for proper thyroid function.
5. Vitamin A. Vitamin A is a protective and antioxidant agent for the thyroid gland. Consuming it improves the function and symptoms of thyroid disease.
