Thyroid hormones
- Influence virtually every organ system in the body
- They tell organs how fast or slow they should work
- They also regulate the consumption of oxygen and the production of heat
- Regulate your metabolism—how the body uses food, either using it for immediate energy or storing it for the future.
- The pituitary gland controls how well the thyroid works
The thyroid gland can develop several distinct problems:
- A nodule or growth on the thyroid
- A thyroid goiter is an enlargement of the thyroid gland
- Hyperthyroidism means there is too much thyroid hormone and speeds up the body's metabolism
- Hypothyroidism means there is too little thyroid hormone and the body's metabolism slows down
- Thyroid cancer is a fairly common cancer, with an excellent long-term survival rate
