Boost your Thyroid by including Selenium in daily diet!!
Thyroid Hormone regulates Metabolism & other body functions & is secreted by thyroid gland.
✔️The thyroid (gland) is the organ that has the highest concentration of selenium in the body. Selenium plays a critical role in thyroid hormone Metabolism.
✔️Thyroid hormone represents the combination of the two main hormones that are released by thyroid gland: thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3)
✔️ Once thyroid releases thyroxine (T4) into our bloodstream, certain cells in body transform it into triiodothyronine (T3) as cells that have receptors are better able to use T3 than T4. Therefore, T4 is generally considered to be the inactive form of thyroid hormone, and T3 is considered the active form of it.
✔️ According to the Research Deficiency of Selenium inhibits conversion of T4 into T3 resulting into slower Metabolism & condition of hypothyroidism.
✔️As per RDA, 55 Mcg of Selenium is recommended for a healthy adult
