Natural Thyroid Support for Cats
Although less common, hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) can affect our feline friends. Apart from slowing down, if you notice your kitty is showing signs like increased coat shedding, fur thinning, thickened skin, weight gain or a dulled appearance, you should consider taking them to see your trusted vet to run some tests. Your pet care professional will be able to measure thyroid hormone levels in their blood (TT4 test) as well as run some other tests to rule out other conditions.
For kitties with hypothyroidism, we'd suggest adding a natural cat thyroid supplement to help support their body, like NHV Thyro Up to your furbaby's daily regimen. Thyro Up's liquid formulation means that you can easily hide it in food or a favorite snack (we know how picky cats can be!). NHV Thyro up for underactive cat thyroid can safely be used long-term as a natural health support. Thyro Up promotes healthy thyroid function and is a beneficial aid for improving metabolism in cats of all sizes and ages (as long as they are weaned and vaccinated).
How NHV’s Natural Cat Thyroid Supplement Provides Glandular Support
Hypothyroidism can cause a lot of discomfort for your sensitive feline companion. If left untreated, kitties with hypothyroidism may develop many health issues, like potential heart issues such as bradycardia (unusually slow heartbeat). The herbs in this blend work synergistically to help support thyroid function while promoting energy levels, and healthy metabolism.
Ingredients like Astragalus and Eleuthero support healthy thyroid function, stimulate metabolism and protect the body against physical, mental and emotional stress. Kelp is rich in iodine which stimulates the thyroid gland while ingredients like Licorice and Gotu Kola contain many beneficial properties for balancing thyroid hormone levels. Herbs like Papaya and Watercress add nutrient support to help regulate hormone levels as well as support immune function. Cayenne’s vasodilator and analgesic properties help encourage blood circulation to outer extremities and stimulate the glandular system. The antioxidant properties in Thyro-Up help to protect the body from oxidative cell damage, which promotes metabolic health and improves energy levels; while its sedative properties help calm your kitty and reduce their anxiety and stress.

FAQ
What’s the difference between hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism?
Hyperthyroidism refers to a thyroid gland that produces too much thyroid hormone (overactive) and hypothyroidism refers to a thyroid gland that does not produce enough hormones (underactive). These two conditions often present very different signs and symptoms. To learn more, here is a link to our blog about both conditions!
What are the symptoms for hypothyroidism?
- Decreased energy levels (lethargy)
- Possible weight gain and obesity
- Increased coat shedding
- Hair thinning and hair loss
- Reproductive issues
- Dull appearance
- Thickening of the skin
Can I use the Thyro-Up and the Resthyro together?
Thyro-Up and Resthyro are formulated for opposite thyroid issues. Thyro Up helps with an underactive thyroid while Resthyro soothes an overactive thyroid gland. The effects of each supplement may undo the effect of the other, so it is not recommended to use them both at the same time.
Can I use this cat thyroid supplement with other supplements and treatment?
Yes. For added support with feline hypothyroidism, we recommend taking Multi Essentials which helps to stimulate metabolism, promote healthy skin and coat, aid with digestion and increase energy levels. Thyro-Up can also be used in conjunction with traditional cat thyroid medication, just be sure to separate medication and any supplements by a couple of hours so each as time to work in the body.
My cat has hyperthyroidism, should I use Thyro Up?
No. If your cat has hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), we recommend taking:
- Resthyro - It helps to support the thyroid gland and control appetite. It also helps to relieve tension and irritability, reduce thirst, support heart health and improved kidney function.
- Turmeric – Is often recommended to be taking with Resthyro to help support the other organs affected by hyperthyroidism. Turmeric supports the heart, aids digestion, improves skin and coat health, supports liver function and relieves discomfort.
