The thyroid gland produces thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) which have a number of functions in the body and are particularly critical in maintaining your pet’s metabolic rate. This in turn may have an impact on a range of other body functions such as digestion (also body weight), heart rate and reproductive functioning.
Energy levels and even skin and coat health are also influenced by the functioning of the thyroid gland. Maintaining balance of thyroid hormones and of the pituitary gland which regulates them is therefore important for the overall systemic health of your dog or cat.
What is the conventional treatment?
Hypothyroidism in pets is conventionally treated by administering a daily dose of synthetic thyroid hormones. This can often restore healthy thyroid functioning very effectively.
One of the main problems with synthetic thyroid hormones however is that they may result in too much thyroid hormone in the body, resulting in hyperthyroidism. This is because it is often difficult to determine exactly how much of the synthetic hormones are needed for optimal thyroid functioning.
The natural way
The thyroid gland does not operate in isolation and should be seen as part of overall systemic functioning. From a holistic approach, therefore, it makes sense that regular exercise and a balanced diet are important in maintaining systemic as well as thyroid health. Iodine is a mineral that is crucial to the functioning of the thyroid gland and it is therefore important that your pet’s diet include iodine or an iodine supplement – also found in kelp extracts.
Certain herbs are also known to support the health of the thyroid. As animals react well to supplementation with herbal remedies, these can also play an important role in supporting your pet’s thyroid functioning. Herbal remedies can be equally effective in maintaining skin and coat health, digestive functioning and maintaining a healthy body weight.

"Both my dog’s vet and I are very impressed with your product Thyro-Pet which has helped to regulate my dog’s thyroid functioning very effectively. By using this natural product regularly we have managed to completely stop his synthetic medication without any return of his previous symptoms. Many thanks- I am thrilled to have my pet on an effective, all-natural regimen." Heather
"Several months ago my Boxer began to pick up weight and I was convinced our kids were sneaking him plenty of fattening treats behind my back. It turned out, though, that he had a low-functioning thyroid gland. After using your Thyro-Pet formula for about a month we noticed him dropping the excess weight and also saw that he had far more energy to play and when taken for walks. We will be stocking up on this excellent product that has improved our pet’s quality of life so much!" Shona
"The results that my dog Sundae, an 8-year-old female Chow Chow, have experienced are simply amazing. A month ago, she had no hair on her back, sides, and tail. After three weeks of giving her Thyro-Pet, the hair growth is unbelievable. Her tail is almost completely covered and the hair is returning to her sides and back. I took her to the vet today and he could not believe that there is a natural formula that has worked wonders on this dog… Thyro-Pet is really helping her."Dr. J.

Thyro-Pet contains the following 100% natural ingredients:
Bladderwrack
(Fucus vesiculosis) is a sea vegetable which is a prime source of iodine - crucial in supporting thyroid health. It has been used in humans for thousands of years, especially in traditional Chinese medicine, and is just as effective in domestic animals. Apart from the beneficial effect on thyroid functioning, kelp is also used as a metabolic tonic and will help ‘tubby’ pets to shed their excess weight. It has been studied for its ability to support health (Le Tutour B, Benslimane F, Gouleau MP, et al. “Antioxidant and pro-oxidant activities of the brown algae, Laminaria digitata, Himanthalia elongata, Fucus vesiculosus, Fucus serratus and Ascophyllum nodosum.” J Applied Phycology 1998;10(2):121-129.) When using kelp for people or pets, always make sure that it is sourced from a reputable and trusted company. Kelp harvested from the beach or near to the coast may be contaminated with industrial waste, sewage, lead, mercury or other toxins. Kelp used in Thyro-Pet has been harvested only from uncontaminated areas and screened for the presence of toxins, heavy metal and other contamination.
Huang Qi
(Astragalus membranaceous) is an herb which has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for many centuries as a revitalizing tonic for the endocrine system. It is a very useful supporter of thyroid and adrenal gland function and also helps to maintain blood pressure and blood sugar levels within the normal range. (Yin X, Zhang S, Kong Y, et al. “Observation on efficiency of jiangtang capsule in treating diabetes mellitus type 2 with hyperlipidemia.” Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine 2001;7(3):214-216 ). Recent research also confirms the positive effect of Astragalus on the immune system. (Jiao Y, Wen J, Yu X. “Influence of flavonoid of Astragalus membranaceus's stem and leaves on the function of cell mediated immunity in mice”. Zhongguo Zhong Xi Yi Jie He Za Zhi 1999;19(6):356-358.)
Eleuthero
(Eleutherococcus senticosis) is a botanical cousin of Panax ginseng and has been used in ancient Chinese medicine for thousands of years to support healthy energy levels and endurance. This herbal ingredient is excellent for maintaining healthy energy levels. Recent research has clinically proven that regular use of Siberian Ginseng will help the body to withstand physical stress and support immune functioning.
Annual Nettle
(Urtica urens) is used traditionally and in modern herbalism as a circulatory tonic to support healthy metabolism, thyroid and adrenal function. This herb is also a good source of minerals, as well as Vitamins A, B and C.
