The Tao of Books Bargains Thyroid Disorders

Alan Rubin

Your thyroid gland influences almost every cell and organ in your body because its general function is to control your metabolism. If your thyroid is functioning correctly, your metabolism should be normal. If your thyroid is working too hard, your metabolism is too high, and the result can be anything from an increased body temperature to an elevated heart rate. When your thyroid function drops below normal, so does your metabolism – you may gain weight, feel tired, and experience digestive problems and depression. Anyone who wants to understand the big role of the little gland in the front of the neck can look to Thyroid For Dummies for a common sense approach to figuring out: Causes of thyroid conditions; Symptoms related to thyroid problems; Treatment options; Consequences of going without treatment; Explore how the thyroid dysfunction influences your mood.; Determine the size, shape, and content of your thyroid gland.; Discover whether you're at risk; Clarify the thyroid-weight connection; Deal with thyroid conditions in children.
