Understanding How Thyroid Works
Our customized care programs are natural, drug-free treatment options for people suffering from thyroid hormone imbalances.
Thyroid Basics
The thyroid is a small butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of the neck. lt makes thyroid hormone, which is carried throughout the body in the bloodstream. Thyroid hormone controls metabolic activities, including how fast calories are burned and one's heart rate.
lf The Thyroid Is UNDER-active, lt Causes Fatigue.
Thyroid hormone levels play a major role in how our body performs. lf someone's thyroid is under-active (referred to as hypothyroidism), he or she will feel tired, sluggish, gain weight and experience other unpleasant symptoms.
And, hypothyroidism affects more women than men. lt can cause women to experience menstrual problems, and symptoms can even be mistaken for menopause.

Why Many Thyroid ProblemsGo Undiagnosed
Mainstream medical lab testing normally assesses thyroid function by testing levels of only three markers: T4, Free T4 and Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH).
However, there are some big problems with what's considered "normal" lab results.
