What Is Thyroid Disease?
All day, every day, our bodies are performing countless different functions. We tend not to notice, but these functions include things like the digestion of our food, processing food for energy, the beating of our heart, and so much more. These functions need to be all working well in order for our good health to be maintained.
Helping with the functioning of these functions are chemicals that are produced by our bodies. These chemicals are known as hormones and they are manufactured in our glands from nutrients in our food. There are numerous different glands in the body the produce different hormones, and one of these glands is known as the thyroid gland.
