The thyroid is a hormone-producing gland that helps regulate the body’s metabolism, body temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, and the functioning of vital organs such as the liver and brain. Unfortunately, many people today do not eat a well balanced diet that contains all the nutrients needed for our thyroids to function at its maximum potential. Thyroid support supplements are dietary supplements containing vitamins, minerals, herbs, and amino acids that, when taken daily, support thyroid function and promote healthy metabolism and weight.

You might see l-tyrosine, iodine, selenium, and schizandra listed on many thyroid supplements. These ingredients have been independently tested, and there is plenty of scientific proof to show that these ingredients lead to a better thyroid. The difference is in the quality of the extract and the specific blend.

According to numerous external studies, as well as our own, certain supplements list a certain amount of their ingredients, but the quality is harder to tell. Unfortunately, many thyroid supplements put powders of certain plants into the pill. This low-grade powder does little to nothing for you. High-end extracts are expensive to produce, and often lead to a somewhat expensive pill.

From out experience looking at supplements, as well as calculating the wholesale and retail pricing for the ingredients, a bottle of high quality supplement for the thyroid should cost around $30 – $40. Anything cheaper probably has been filled with plant byproducts. Anything much more expensive, and you are looking at either a pharmaceutical or a fake.

This is an important thing to consider. Each supplement has a different number of pills in it. Most have 60 pills per bottle, but some others come in quantities as low as 30 or as much as 90. One might think that a bottle of 30 pills would last for 30 days / 1 month. However, this is almost never the case. Most supplements have recommended dosages of 2 pills per day, but some can be up to 4 pills per day. Stay away from pills with high dosages.
