Thyroid Support Tincture - Kelp, Horsetail and Stinging Nettle Herbal Blend
This is an alcohol-based liquid extract (tincture) of three herbs extracted together in equal parts. Thyroid Support is the name of the blend; it is a traditional herbal product, not a capsule and not a standardized iodine product. The kelp in it naturally contains iodine, and the amount is not standardized - please read the safety information below before use.
- Kelp, whole plant - Ascophyllum nodosum (knotted wrack), a brown seaweed of the North Atlantic (Fucaceae); naturally contains iodine
- Horsetail herb - Equisetum arvense herb (Equisetaceae)
- Stinging nettle leaf - Urtica dioica leaf (Urticaceae)
- Extract type: Alcohol tincture. Other ingredients: organic alcohol, vegetable glycerin, crystal clear purified water
- Origin: Responsibly sourced botanicals; seaweed from cold North Atlantic waters. Gluten free. Made in the USA.
What is in the blend
- Kelp (Ascophyllum nodosum) - the knotted wrack, a tough olive-brown seaweed that grows on rocky North Atlantic shores; like all brown seaweeds it takes up iodine and minerals from seawater, in amounts that vary with season and place.
- Horsetail herb - the segmented, brush-like stems of Equisetum arvense, one of the oldest plant lineages on Earth, once used to scour pots because of its gritty silica.
- Stinging nettle leaf - the young leaf of the common nettle, a traditional spring green of Europe and North America.
Why a tincture
The three dried herbs are macerated together in organic alcohol with a little vegetable glycerin and water - the classic herbal method. A tincture keeps for years at room temperature in a cool, dark place, has a sharper taste (salty from the kelp, green from the nettle), and a few drops disappear in a glass of water or juice. A serving of 20 to 30 drops is roughly 1 ml of liquid, so the amount of alcohol per serving is small.
How to use
Shake well before use. Put the number of drops shown on the label into a little water or juice and drink it, up to the frequency shown on the label. Do not exceed the label serving, and use it as a course with breaks rather than continuously. Store in a cool, dark place with the cap tight.
Tincture or drops?
If you avoid alcohol or prefer a milder taste, the same three-herb blend is available as Thyroid Support Alcohol-Free Drops - the glycerite version. The herbs and proportions are identical; only the extraction liquid differs.
Important safety information - please read before use
This blend contains kelp, a seaweed that naturally contains iodine in an amount that varies and is not standardized. Please read before use.
- Iodine and the thyroid: too much iodine can disturb thyroid function in either direction. Do not use this product if you have a thyroid condition, an autoimmune thyroid disorder, or take thyroid medication, unless your doctor is supervising you. Do not exceed the label serving.
- Pregnancy / nursing: do not use. Excess iodine can be harmful, and horsetail is not recommended in pregnancy.
- Duration: use as a course with breaks, not continuously. Horsetail contains thiaminase, an enzyme that can deplete vitamin B1 with prolonged daily use.
- Kidneys and heart (horsetail): do not use if you have kidney disease or fluid retention caused by heart or kidney problems. Horsetail and nettle have a diuretic effect and may add to diuretics or lithium.
- Blood thinners: kelp and nettle contain vitamin K. Consult your practitioner if you take warfarin or other anticoagulants.
- Blood sugar: nettle may lower blood sugar - monitor if you take diabetes medication.
- Seaweed and heavy metals: seaweeds can take up arsenic and other metals from seawater, which is why sourcing matters. Keep to the label serving.
- Allergies: avoid if you are allergic to nettles or to seaweed.
- Contains alcohol. If you have a medical condition or take medication, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Not for children without medical advice. Do not use it to self-treat any medical condition - see a qualified doctor instead. Keep out of reach of children.
