Support Your Thyroid and a Healthy Metabolism
Thyroid issues can affect up to an estimated 30 million Americans, but as many as half of those may not realize they have a thyroid issue. The reason? Thyroid issues are hard to pin down and can masquerade as other health issues. The truth is that thyroid issues can have a far-reaching effect. The good news is that supporting thyroid health can be as simple as taking Thyromine.
What is the Thyroid and What Does it do?
The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped organ located at the base of your neck. It releases hormones that control metabolism, the way your body uses energy. The thyroid's hormones regulate vital body functions, including:
- Breathing
- Heart rate
- Central and peripheral nervous systems
- Body weight Muscle strength
- Menstrual cycles Body temperature
- Cholesterol levels Much more!
How the Thyroid Gland Works
The thyroid is part of the endocrine system, which is made up of glands that produce, store, and releases hormones into the bloodstream so the hormones can reach the body's cells. The thyroid gland uses iodine from the foods you eat to make two main hormones: Triiodothyronine (T3) Thyroxine (T4) It is important that T3 and T4 levels are neither too high nor too low. Two glands in the brain—the hypothalamus and the pituitary communicate to maintain T3 and T4 balance.
