This small gland that controls everything

It weighs barely 20 grams. It is shaped like a butterfly resting at the base of your neck. And yet, it influences every cell, every tissue, every organ in your body.

Your thyroid is your metabolic thermostat. It dictates how quickly your cells burn energy, how your body functions in terms of temperature, and the rhythm of your heartbeat. It regulates your weight, digestion, mood, the quality of your skin and hair, your ability to think clearly, and even your fertility.

When it functions well, everything runs smoothly. You have energy, you digest well, you sleep well, you think clearly.

When she slows down, it's like someone turning down the dimmer on your entire being.
