The Role of the Thyroid
In today’s lesson, “The Role of the Thyroid” from the Thyroid Balance course, we explore just how vital this small, butterfly-shaped gland really is.
Your thyroid sits in the throat and controls metabolism—not just weight, but the energy every single cell in your body needs to function. When thyroid function slows, the effects ripple through almost every system:
- ⚡ Low energy and poor ATP production
- 🌡️ Feeling cold, even in warm weather
- 🧠 Brain fog and sluggish thinking
- 🩺 Higher LDL cholesterol, reduced immunity, and gut issues like constipation or dysbiosis
- 👩 Hormonal imbalances, heavy periods, PMS, and even infertility due to lower progesterone
The takeaway? Thyroid health isn’t only about weight—it’s about whole-body vitality, from your liver and heart to your hormones and immune system.
✨ Supporting the thyroid means looking at systemic wellness and addressing root causes, not just symptoms.
