Glands and Hormones
Each endocrine gland has a particular trace mineral or mineraloid that is especially important for its functioning. The following table lists endocrine glands and their gland-specific nutrient and mineral activators.
Gland
Glandular Support
Mineral Activator
Critical Nutrient
Pituitary
Neonatal lamb pituitary and hypothalamus tissue
(Cytozyme-PT/HPT)
Nutrient complex with neonatal lamb pituitary and hypothalamus glandular tissue and synergistic nutrients for pituitary and thyroid balance (Thyrostim)
Manganese (Mn-Zyme)
For sensitivity to vitamin A deficiency, consider Bio-Ae-Mulsion
For vitamin E deficiency consider E-Mulsion 200
For iodine deficiency consider Liquid iodine Forte
These nutrients need to be supplied in physiological balance. Pituitary is particulary sensitive to excessive iron buildup
