The thyroid gland regulates metabolism in every cell of the body. A deficiency of thyroid hormones, which often goes undiagnosed, can impact virtually all aspects of health. In addition, with a sluggish thyroid you won't get full value from other nutritional therapies. Almost all treatment of sluggish thyroid requires use of desiccated thyroid or synthetic thyroid hormone. Naturopathic physicians prefer the use of desiccated natural thyroid. At South River Compounding Pharmacy we compound patient specific doses of Thyroid Replacement. We compound SUSTAINED RELEASE T3 and any combination of T3/T4 desired. By monitoring patient symptoms and labs, we can help you feel "normal" again. Email or call us today. We can help.

Prescription for a Healthy Thyroid

Nutritional Supplementation:
Provides key nutrients for jump-starting thyroid
function.

Diet: Be sure to avoid some foods that can
prevent the utilization of iodine. These foods
are termed goitrogens and include turnips,
cabbage, mustard, soybean, peanuts and
millet. Cooking usually inactivates goitrogens.

Exercise: Exercise is critical to stimulate
thyroid gland secretions and increase tissue
sensitivity to thyroid hormone. Many health
benefits from exercise may in fact result from
improved thyroid function.
