How Does My Body Work?
Thyroid
Your thyroid is a vital regulatory gland that controls your metabolism. If it’s not pumping out enough of its hormones, you suffer from hypothyroidism, resulting in weight gain, fatigue, feeling cold, sore joints, and depression. If it’s pumping out too much of its hormones, you suffer from hyperthyroidism, resulting in weight loss, feeling agitated, overheating, sweating, and anxiety.
