Thytrophin PMG

[Guest guest]

Someone sent me this as what they are taking. They are also taking large doses of Letcithin. Is anyone familiar with this???

Thytrophin PMGA Special Combination Formula With Primary Ingredients of 45 Mg Of Bovine Thyroid PMG® Extract (Processed to Remove Thyroxine), Calcium Lactate, And Magnesium CitrateThe thyroid gland is an endocrine gland consisting of a large number of follicles (small secretory sacs or cavities) that contain thyroglobulin. Thyroglobulin is an iodine-containing protein from which thyroxine, triiodothyronine (T3), and tetraiodothyronine (T4) are derived (T3 and T4 stimulate every tissue in the body to produce proteins and increase the amount of oxygen used by cells). Thyroxine, a principle hormone secreted by= the thyroid gland, enhances the capability of all food types for energy production and increases the rate of protein synthesis in most tissues. Parafollicular cells secrete the hormone calcitonin (works together with parathyroid hormone). Calcitonin is involved in calcium metabolism and works to decrease blood calcium levels. Calcitonin also inhibits bone resorption (act of removal by absorption).HOW THYTROPHIN PMG® KEEPS YOU HEALTHY Maintains Cellular HealthProtomorphogen™ extract is the brand name of Standard Process' extracts derived from nucleoprotein-mineral molecules. The foundation for the functi= on of these uniquely formulated nucleoprotein-mineral extracts comes from the = antigen-antibody reaction that takes place during normal cell maintenance. = The antigenic properties promote healthy cell division, function, and growt= h. When a tissue needs support, at least a dozen different compounds are formed that can cause white blood cells to travel together toward the compromised area. They include degenerative products of the tissues themselves. These substances strongly activate the macrophage system, and within a few hours, the macrophages begin to devour the destroyed tissue byproducts. At times, the macrophages can also affect the structure of the = remaining healthy cells. The bovine thyroid PMG™ extract in Thytrophin PMG® appears to neutralize the circulating antibody, thereby contributing t= o the maintenance of cellular health.*Improves calcium absorptionCalcium lactate is a very soluble calcium salt and highly bioavailable, changing to calcium bicarbonate (the type used by the body) in one chemical= step. Unlike other forms of calcium, which are largely insoluble in water a= nd need acid conditions to be absorbed, Standard Process' calcium lactate is highly soluble in water (a neutral pH) and does not depend on acidic conditions to perform its function.*Enhances metabolic efficiencyMagnesium functions as a cofactor, assisting enzymes in catalyzing many chemical reactions. It functions in such reactions as nerve conduction and = nerve excitability; energy transfer, muscular activity; and many other spec= ific processes. This important mineral is a critical dietary substance and is an= essential element in over 300 enzymes in the body. While magnesium is present in most cells in only minute quantities, it plays an important role= in human metabolism, as does it partner, calcium. The magnesium in this product aids in the uptake of calcium lactate by the body. Magnesium and calcium are synergistic, meaning that what they do for the body together, t= hey cannot perform on their own. Magnesium deficiencies are often accompanied by calcium and potassium deficiencies. WHAT MAKES STANDARD PROCESS' THYTROPHIN PMG® UNIQUE · Contains enzymes factors, minerals, amino acids, and proteins combined = with bovine thyroid PMG® extract. · To help to support the role of the thyroid in basal metabolism, its dyn= amic relationships with other endocrine glands, and its vital role in the promot= ion of growth.* · Contains Protomorphogen™ extracts - Protomorphogen™ extracts are remarkable ingredients extracted and processed in a singularly unique manner by Standard Process Inc. Standard Process uses only adult sources of Protomorphogen™ extracts because they contain the important antigenic properties of nucleoprotein-mineral determinants, the foundation of the product. · Thytrophin PMG® provides nutritional ingredients and support for the musculoskeletal system.* · The calcium lactate in Thytrophin PMG® is not derived from a dairy sour= ce.Standard Process obtains their calcium lactate from pure-vegetable sources = of calcium. · The ingredients in Thytrophin PMG® are processed to remain intact; complete nutritional compounds. · Not disassociated into isolated components.UNIQUE PROCESSING · Bovine thyroid PMG™ extract is processed to remove its thyroxine. · Standard Process uses a patented, exclusive low-temperature, high-vacuum drying technique. · Preserves the tissue's enzymatic vitality and nutritional potential · Standard Process'expert microbiologists and chemists in on-site labs constantly conduct bacteriological and analytical test of raw material, pro= duct batches, and finished products. · Ensures consistent quality and safety. · Vitamin and mineral analyses conducted validate product content and specifications.Assures high quality and delivery.Product Information:Thytrophin PMG® was introduced into the Standard Process line of products in 1952.Bottle size: 90 Tablets.Each tablet supplies: 45 mg of bovine thyroid PMG™ extract, processed to remove its thyroxine.Proprietary blend: Magnesium citrate, and bovine thyroid PMG™ extract (processed to remove its thyroxine).Other ingredients: Calcium lactate, cellulose, calcium stearate.Suggested Use: One tablet per meal, or as directed.Sold only through health care professionals.
