🦋

Thyroid 19% DV

Selenium (undefined% DV) converts T4 to active T3. Essential for thyroid function.

🏥

Testosterone Low

zinc + magnesium. Zinc for 5α-reductase and aromatase inhibition. Mg reduces SHBG. D3 activates Leydig cells. Boron si.

🏥

Hypothyroid

selenium + zinc. Thyroid hormone synthesis requires iodine + tyrosine for T4 structure, selenium for T4→T3 conversion.

🩸

Iron 6% DV

6% DV. Supports red blood cells and oxygen transport. Low iron = fatigue, brain fog.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Cornmeal, degermed, unenriched, white support gut health?
Cornmeal, degermed, unenriched, white contains 3.9g of fiber per 100g (14% DV). Fiber feeds beneficial gut bacteria, which produce short-chain fatty acids (butyrate) that reduce inflammation, strengthen the gut barrier, and improve insulin sensitivity.
Does Cornmeal, degermed, unenriched, white affect hormones?
Yes — Cornmeal, degermed, unenriched, white is rich in selenium (19% DV), which Required for T4→T3 conversion (deiodinase enzyme). Selenoproteins protect Leydig cells from oxidative damage.. selenium supports T3 (active thyroid) and Testosterone production. fiber supports Estrogen and Insulin production. vitamin b6 supports Progesterone and Dopamine production.
Does Cornmeal, degermed, unenriched, white contain anti-nutrients?
Oxalates (spinach, beet greens, Swiss chard — bind calcium). Goitrogens (raw cruciferous — broccoli, kale, cabbage — can impair thyroid iodine uptake). Cooking cruciferous vegetables deactivates goitrogens. Pair high-oxalate greens with calcium-rich foods (they bind in gut, not kidneys). Avoid green potatoes. Only a concern with very high raw intake + iodine deficiency (for goitrogens) or kidney stone history (for oxalates).
