3:36 am
same ordeal. oh, the sign right land weighs just 20 grams and is about the size of a walnut. it's the body's metabolic control center. if it gets overactive, it can trigger a whole range of some tools. and it can also cause problems if it's under active. let's take a closer look at this vital gland. you show its shape, the thyroid is sometimes compared to a butterfly. it sits rather inconspicuously at the front of the neck. but appearances are deceptive. in fact, the thyroid is the sacred ruler of the organs, the key to the thyroid power is the hormones that it produces. fades, whole mines rate, almost every cell in the body. they influence growth,
3:37 am
but also i metabolism and hate production within the cells. because the thyroid hormones, it's sorry, powerful, it's important that the gland produces just the right amount, body temperature, blood pressure, and hot rate tend to be low if the thyroid is underactive and elevated if overactive. this can lead to sensitivity to the code on the one hand and hot flushes on the other. low thyroid hormones can slow digestion and lead to depression, while high hormone levels can cause diarrhea, restlessness and sleep disorders. thyroid function can also affect the menstrual cycle and le bader from the beginning of pregnancy, children depend on the mother's thyroid hormones until the fetuses aren't. thyroid gland becomes active. hormones also play
3:38 am
a crucial role in physical development before birth. to be able to function, the thyroid needs one raw material in particular iodine. the human body cannot produce iodine itself and can only store it to a very limited extent. it must, therefore, being jested regularly through food. certain types of fish contain lots of iodine lack, haddock, and salmon as their show fish, dairy products and egg. good non animal sources of iodine and nots spin age c weighed pumpkin and table. salting rich with iodine. interestingly, butterflies also have an organ that produces the same hormones of the thyroid gland . they control the metamorphosis from caterpillar's butterfly. just to south thyroid gland is involved in many changes in our lives.

a quarter is an enlarged thyroid gland. it's associated with an increase or decrease in thyroid hormones. the main symptom is swelling at the front of the neck. the most common cause is the lack of iodine in the diet which can be a problem in remote parts of the world. the recommended daily dose varies from country to country, but on average young people and adults need $100.00 to $200.00 micrograms per day. pregnant and breast feeding women need mall. 100 grams of fish contain between 50 and 250 micrograms of iodine. the body also needs enough iron and selenium to absorb iodine. both of these minerals are found in meat, eggs, and lentils. thyroid problems are usually genetic. they tend to run in the family.

3:41 am
time to rest and relax or, or organ suffer. prolonged stress can also affect the thyroid gland with chronic stress. boosts the production of thyroid hormones. their task is to mobilize energy for the body cells won. sugar and fatty acids are released and transported to the muscles via the blood vessels activating the fight or flight response. but the fight or flight response doesn't help us much in our modern desk bound lines. when we're permanently stressed, cells become desensitized to molecular signals, reducing cellular uptake of thyroid hormones. the thyroid then starts producing more and more hormones. it can become inflamed, the internal issue to mover, initially. inflammation of the thyroid gland causes for thyroid cells to produce
3:42 am
more thyroid hormones, already. corn and sooner. fruit done. but chronic inflammation then cause a cell death. and as a result, hypo thyroid isn't. who did i not wonderful to hyper thyroidism and underactive, thyroid gland can go unnoticed for a while. the symptoms can be caused by other condition, but eventually, inflammation, fullis, altenor damage thyroid. it was a, from, out of the thyroid gland is completely replaced quite as scarring under effectively disappears. then there's no solution one to any megabits. it's form on the only option that is to take it tablets to move to replace the thyroid hormone salmone dois tablet. and so as it's my, most of you have to take one tablet a day as a diesel. thyroid hormone replacement therapy is widely available, right? man is relatively simple, i'm for huh. anyone suffering from too much?
