Clinical Benefits:
- Relieves nervous unrest: Thyrocalm contains Rehmannia glutinosa and Melissa officinalis for the relief of irritability and nervous unrest. In an animal study, Rehmannia glutinosa has been shown to lower adrenergic receptor affinity and peripheral conversion of T4 to T3. An in vitro study has shown Melissa officinalis to inhibit conversion of T4 to T3 and disrupt TSH binding to its receptor.
- Calming: Rehmannia glutinosa is traditionally used in Chinese medicine as a yin tonic to improve symptoms of heart fire including insomnia and irritability. In animal studies, Rehmannia glutinosa has reversed morphological changes to the pituitary and adrenal cortex by antagonising the suppressive effect of glucocorticoids on the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis. The carminative and sedative actions of Melissa officinalis assist those with nervousness and sleeping problems. The possible anxiolytic activity of lemon balm results from an elevation of GABA levels that occurs due to inhibition of GABA-transaminase.
