There is an old medical saying that just a few grains of thyroid hormone can make the difference between an idiot and an Einstein. It aptly characterizes the thyroid as a quickener of the temp of life. The thyroid, the body’s thermostat, secretes 2 hormones that regulate body temperature, energy usage and calorie burning. The thyroid gland regulates the rate at which the body utilizes oxygen and controls the rate at which various organs function and the speed with which the body utilizes food. Thyroid secretion is essential for the operation of the cells. The thyroid plays an important role in the growth processes. In humans, growth and maturation fail to take place normally when the thyroid is absent or functioning far below normal. Hypothyroidism has been estimated to affect 40% of people in the United States, 90% of which are WOMEN. Undiagnosed thyroid problems can be behind many unidentified symptoms of fatigue, many recurring illnesses, and non-responsive health problems. Symptoms of underproduction of thyroid hormones include: weight gain, fatigue, muscle weakness, cramps, appetite loss, slow heart rate, low body temperature, hair loss, dry skin, constipation, depression, increased allergies, and CALCIUM METABOLISIM PROBLEMS. Symptoms of iodine deficiency: Fatigue—an under active thyroid typically causes fatigue. Iodine supplementation can quickly activate the thyroid and relieve fatigue. Thyroid disease—When there’s not enough iodine to bind with cell membranes, it allows enzymes called peroxidases to wreak havoc and cause autoimmune disease such as thyroiditis. While iodine will help the thyroid increase production of hormone where necessary, it also inhibits over-release from the gland by giving thyroid enzymes what they want. These iodine seeking enzymes that attack thyroid membranes can be normalized when they get the iodine they need.
