Orthoplex S.F.M.

Product Details

Orthoplex S.F.M. is a tyrosine supplement that may be of assistance in conditions associated with poor thyroid function and adrenal function. S.F.M. contains tyrosine, which is an amino acid precursor to dophamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine. S.F.M. may also help to maintain a normal, healthy mood.

Tyrosine and iodine are utilised by the body for the production of thyroxine, which is a hormone secreted by the thyroid gland which regulates metabolism.
