Why This Is Great for Thyroid Patients
Zinc deficiency is remarkably common in hypothyroid patients and can directly impair thyroid hormone synthesis. Zinc is required for the enzyme that converts T4 to T3, and low zinc levels are associated with decreased Free T3 and elevated reverse T3. Studies have shown that zinc supplementation can improve thyroid hormone levels in patients with low T3. Beyond thyroid conversion, zinc supports immune regulation — important for those with Hashimoto's autoimmunity — and helps with the hair loss and skin issues that many thyroid patients experience.
