Was Your Latest Attempt To Lose Weight Sabotaged By Poor Thyroid Function?
 
  According to a recent report by The Thyroid Foundation of America, 13 million Americans, 11 million of them women, have a malfunctioning thyroid and most of them don't know it. Even more important is the fact that there could be tens of millions more with "borderline" thyroid function.
 
How Does a Lack of Adequate Thyroid Function Prevent a Loss of Excess Body Fat and Body Weight?
 
  Thyroid hormones are responsible for the conversion of stored body fat into free fatty acids -- the only form of fat the body can use for fuel. Neither thermogenesis, nor loss of excess body fat, can occur without adequate thyroid hormone, making sufficient free fatty acids available for fuel. Thyroid hormones make the body more sensitive to norepinephrine -- the neurotransmitter (chemical messenger) responsible for activating the fat burning process (thermogenesis). This means that less norepinephrine is required to utilize free fatty acids for energy -- reducing unsightly body fat stores in the process.
 
Can a Lack of Thyroid-Specific Nutrients Trigger "Borderline" Thyroid Malfunction?
 
  Inadequate nutritional support is one of the established causes of poor thyroid health. Common sense dictates that if you indiscriminately reduce caloric consumption, in an effort to quickly shed excess body weight, you also reduce the nutritional support necessary to maintain "borderline" thyroid function.

Are You a ThyroStart™ Candidate?

How many diets have you tried this year? You followed the diet instructions... You used the products you bought... You even started to exercise... Then why are you still overweight?
	Millions of women, just like you, are plagued by two haunting questions:   1. "Why did my last diet fail?"               and 2. "What can I do next?" ThyroStart™ provides a serious answer to both questions.

    For the tens of millions of overweight women with potential "borderline" thyroid function, their mere participation in an ill-conceived weight loss program of unbalanced, reduced caloric intake and increased exercise can send them over the edge. After just a few days of such "dieting" you can hit the proverbial "weight loss plateau," oftentimes resulting from a sudden drop in thyroid specific nutrients. In other words, a drastic reduction of caloric intake, without the addition of thyroid specific nutritional support, may be the cause of "weight loss plateau" and ultimate diet failure.
