Boosting Your Thyroid Over 13 million people in America suffer from low thyroid function. There is strong reason to believe that an underactive thyroid is a major block to weight loss, especially for women. Thyroid hormones are necessary for normal health and cellular activity and if thyroid function is not normal, weight loss is next to impossible. The thyroid gland is responsible for controlling the temperature of the body, and use of energy and growth rate in children. Fatigue, depression, weight gain, cold hands and feet, sensitivity to cold, low body tempera- ture, headaches, joint pain, menstrual disorders, puffy eyes, hair loss, brittle nails, constipation, ringing in the ears, loss of sex drive and frequent infections are all possible indicators of a sluggish thyroid. © The AlternativeDaily.com 25
