The thyroid is an endocrine gland in the shape of a butterfly, whose location is in the lower front part of the neck. Its function is to produce thyroid hormones, which are released into the blood and transferred to all body tissues. These hormones promote the proper function of the brain, heart muscles, and other organs, keep the body warm and provide body energy.

The disrupted thyroid function leads to numerous health issues, like fatigue, restlessness, weight gain, weight loss and others. Thyroid disorders are:

• Hypothyroidism – the thyroid gland produces does not produce sufficient amounts of thyroid hormones, so the whole body and the metabolism are decelerated.
• Hyperthyroidism – the thyroid gland produces excessive amounts of thyroid hormone, which accelerates the body’s functions, as well as the heart rate and the metabolism.
• Thyroiditis – It is an inflammation of the thyroid gland, which happens when the thyroid is attacked by the antibodies created by the Boyd’s immune system.
• Goiter – It is an abnormal thyroid gland enlargement which may lead to throat issues and swelling.
• Thyroid Nodules –abnormal thyroid cells growth which creates a lump within this gland.
• Thyroid Cancer – The thyroid gland tissues form cancer cells. This disorder affects over 45,000 annually.
