Males and females are both affected by sluggish thyroid. Women more often suffer from this health impairment, and up to 50% of women may have a thyroid impairment.

Thyax natural medicine gives help for hypothyroidism by stimulating the thyroid to increase its own production of thyroxine. Thyax does so by supplying natural substances that the thyroid gland uses as building materials and as working tools to produce the hormones.

Since Thyax stimulates thyroxine naturally, it does not have the side effects of ordinary drugs for hypothyroid disease that are containing thyroxine - such as headaches, sleeplessness, bone loss, and increased heart contraction rate.

For many years thyroid problems, especially problems from low thyroid activity, have been underestimated, misunderstood, and portrayed as insignificant, but thyroid insufficiency disease can have many negative bodily effects. Here are some ways you can benefit by increasing the amount of thyroxine in your system by maintaining a healthy thyroid that is sufficiently active:

 

The natural ingredients of  the Thyax medicine for hypothyroidism

This medicine for sluggish thyroid has a lot of mineral and vitamine substanses as the working ingredients. These minerals are all necessary for the function of the thyroid and the production of the thyroid hormones. Here is the composition of one dosis.

Acetyl L-Tyrosine 250 mg

Magnesium (magnesium aspartate) 200 mg

Zinc (picolinate) 10 mg


L-Tyrosine Complex combines thyroid tissue, the amino acid tyrosine, and synergistic trace minerals that must be present for endocrine gland functions, especially the thyroid. The thyroid gland needs iodine and L-tyrosine to produce hormones that control the body's metabolism. The trace minerals magnesium and zinc are included in the formula and are involved with specific enzymes linked to endocrine glandular processes.

Iodine 450 mcg
Iodine is a trace element that is vital to the health of the thyroid gland. It also provides the building blocks for the hormones secreted by the thyroid.

Manganese 10mg
Manganese is involved in the production of a wide variety of enzymes. These enzymes influence such biological processes as the production of collagen,the metabolism of protein and of cholesterol. Manganese is also necessary for normal bone growth and the metabolism of amino acids.


L-Aspartic Acid 200 mg
Works with L-Tyrosine, synergistic vitamins, minerals and co-enzymes to supply nutritional support for the health of the thyroid gland.


Potassium (potassium aspartate) 198 mg
Helps to treat the fatigue associated with thyroxine deficiencies.


Niacin/Niacinamide (50/50) 50 mg
Vitamin B1 (thiamine HCl) 30 mg
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) 50 mg
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) 50 mg

These vitamins promote the general health of the thyroid.

Some in depth knowledge about hypothyroidism

What is hypothyroidism

The thyroid gland is located in the front of the neck just below the larynx in front of the windpipe. It is made up of two lobes at both sides of the trachea with a thin bridge between.

It secretes hormones controlling, that is mostly enhancing metabolism. These are foremost thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3).  The substances monoiodothyronine and diiodothyronine are also made, but these are mostly intermediate products in the syntesis of thyroxine.

The thyroid hormones stimulate both the break-down of energy-rich molecules like fat and carbohydrates to yield energy for work, and the building up of proteins and other complex molecules.

Actually, thyroxine is produced first, and then triiodothyronine is produced by stripping out one iodine atom from the thyroxine molecules. This stripping is done both in the thyroid gland and in the body elsewhere. Triiodothyronine is actually the most effective hormone of the two.


By the condition called hypothyrodism (sluggish or lazy throid gland), the thyroid gland do not produce enough thyroid hormone to stimulate the metabolic processes, and these chemical processes in the body therefore slow down. Thereby fat and carbohydrates that should be broken down, remain stored, the body does not get enough energy for the daily processes, and there will be a lack of proteins and other complex molecules to be used as tools in internal processes, to build up new structures in the body, and to repair damage.

Because of these basic effects, unsufficient production of thyroid hormones will cause a variety of symptoms and may affect all body functions. The symptoms may vary from mild to the most severe, which is called myxedema.


The earliest symptoms occuring, are directly connected to lack of energy for internal processes and external work, and to the fact that energy rich molecules remaines stored in deposits instead of being used. Symptoms occuring early because of insufficient thyroid production are:

-weakness
-Slow mental reactions and thoughts
-depression
-Slow physical reactions
-fatigue
-intolerance against cold
-constipation
-weight gain (unintentional)
-thin and brittle hair
-pale skin color
-joint or muscle pain
-thin, brittle fingernails


Later on the lack of enzymes and other complex molecules that do work in the organism, takes greater effect, causing direct function failur in various organs, imbalances like for example beginning edema in various body parts and deposits of matter that should normally be eliminated. The lack of buliding molecules also begin to have effects. Effects taken place at a somewhat later stage are:


-decreased taste and smell
-thinning of eyebrows
-hoarseness
-abnormal menstrual periods
-slow speech
-dry flaky skin
-skin thickening caused by fatty and other deposits and edema
-puffy face, hands and feet caused by edema and various deposits

Later on the decreased production of proteins and other building constituents take full effect, and at the same time the function failur, the deposits of fat, the deposits of waste and the edema increase even more. Late symptoms of hypothroidism are:

-overall and often extrema swelling
-muscle spasms (cramps)
-muscle pain
-muscle atrophy
-uncoordinated movement
-absent menstruation
-joint stiffness
-hair dryness
-hair loss
-facial swelling
-drowsiness
-appetite loss

If hypothyroidism occur in childrens and teens, the late effets will impair the development and growth. Prolonged hypothyroidism in children and yourth may result in:

-short stature
-separated sutures
-delayed formation of teeth
-absence of teeth
-delayed or disturbed puberty
-disturbed development of the sexual organs

There is a variant called congenital hypothyroidism that one can detect by screening tests of newborns.

 

The endocrine system of a human. The hypofysis (pituitary) controls the other endocrine glands, by its hormones.

The causes of hypothyroidism

Hypothyroid disease is most often caused by automimmune conditions where the body's immune system attacks the thyroid gland and makes it inflamed so that tissue in the thryroid gland is destroyed or impaired. When the tissues of the thyroid gland is injured in this way, it will produce too little thyroid hormones.

There are several variants of these autoimmune conditions. A frequent variant in North America is  Hashimoto's thyroiditis where the immune system attacks the proteins in the gland that are tools in the production of thyroid hormones, like thyroid peroxidase or stores for thyroid hormone like  thyroglobuline.

The hypothalamus (a part of the brain) and the pituitary gland regulate the secretion of T3 and T4. Abnormalities of the pituitary or hypothalamus may thus also cause thyroid secretion disorders. Failure of the pituitary gland to secrete a hormone to stimulate the thyroid gland (secondary hypothyroidism) is however a less common cause of hypothyroidism.

Other causes are congenital defects, surgical removal of the thyroid gland, irradiation of the gland, infection of the thyroid gland or various inflammatory conditions.

Risk factors include age over 50 years, female gender, obesity, thyroid surgery, and exposure of the neck to x-ray or radiation treatments.

 

Findings by physical examinations

A physical examination shows delayed relaxation of muscles during tests of reflexes, pale and yellow skin, loss of the outer edge of the eyebrows, thin and brittle hair, coarse facial features, brittle nails, firm swelling of arms and legs. One may note mental slowness. Vital signs symptoms are slow heart rate, low blood pressure, and low temperature.

The heart may be enlarged, which is detected by x-ray.

Laboratory tests to determine thyroid function include:

-T4 test (low)
-serum TSH (high in primary hypothyroidism, low or low-normal in secondary hypothyroidism)

Additional abnormalities found by laboratory workup may include:

-increased cholesterol levels
-increased liver enzymes
-increased serum prolactin
-low serum sodium
-a complete blood count (CBC) that shows anemia (anaemia)

 

Complications

Complications are heart disease, increased risk of infection, infertility, and miscarriage.

Myxedema coma, the most severe form of hypothyroidism, is rare. It may be caused by an infection, illness, exposure to cold, or certain medications in an individual with untreated hypothyroidism. Symptoms of myxedema coma include unresponsiveness, decreased breathing, low blood pressure, low blood sugar, and below normal temperature.

 

Traditional treatment

The purpose of traditional treatment is to replace the deficient thyroid hormone, and not give a causative cure for hypothyroidism. Levothyroxine is the most commonly used medication. The lowest dose effective in relieving symptoms and normalizing the TSH is used. Life-long therapy is the norm and medication is thus continued even when symptoms subside. Thyroid hormone levels must be monitored yearly after a stable dose of medication is determined.

However, treatment with this medicine for hypothyroidism may result in symptoms of to much thyroid activity (hyperthyroidism), such as restlessness, rapid weight loss, and sweating, when the mediaction is not titrated to the right amount.


Myxedema coma is treated with intravenous thyroid replacement and steroid therapy. Supportive therapy of oxygen, assisted ventilation, fluid replacement, and intensive-care nursing may be indicated.
 

The traditional treatment against hypothyroidism restores normal state as long as one manages to titrate the medication doses to right level. The medication is lifelong since the treatmet does not give a fundamental cure against hypothyroidsm.
