The thyroid is a lifestyle disorder and can be easily treated with lifestyle correction. Let's understand what is Thyroid and how can be treated with the right Nutrition. The thyroid is an endocrine gland located low in front of our neck which secrets the thyroid hormone. It regulates the body's metabolic rate and controls heart, muscle, and digestive functions. The thyroid hormones are:- 1. Triiodothyronine (T3) 2. Threonine (T4) These hormones are regulated by Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH ).TSH levels in your blood are rising and fall depending on your bodyโ€™s need to produce more or fewer thyroid hormones. ๐˜ฟ๐™ž๐™จ๐™ค๐™ง๐™™๐™š๐™ง ๐™ง๐™š๐™ก๐™–๐™ฉ๐™š๐™™ ๐™ฉ๐™ค ๐™๐™๐™ฎ๐™ง๐™ค๐™ž๐™™ ๐™ƒ๐™ค๐™ง๐™ข๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™š ๐™–๐™ง๐™š: 1.
