These pure biologically identical hormones are found either by extraction from plants or synthetically manufactured.
Thyroid Hormone
Thyroid hormone is a metabolic hormone secreted by the thyroid gland. This hormone affects every cell in the body.

People who suffer from low thyroid function tend to experience fatigue and low energy, forgetfulness, mental confusion, depression, arthritis-like pain, susceptibility to colds and infections, as well as slower thinking. While these aspects are considered all part of normal aging, this also is secondary to thyroid insufficiency. Research has shown that improving thyroid levels will alleviate many symptoms of thyroid insufficiency and allow our system to function more effectively and efficiently.
