We're getting real cozy with the thyroid today and exploring the connection it has to our energy levels. Trust me, this little gland has a big job and when she's not happy, neither are we! So grab your favorite cozy blanket, a cup of tea, and get ready to learn all about the power of your thyroid!

In This Episode:

  • Stubborn weight that won't budge despite diet and exercise may be a sign of thyroid dysfunction.
  • Your body's ability to digest and absorb nutrients and minerals is greatly impacted by the function of your thyroid gland.
  • Endocrinology is essentially the intricate conversation and communication taking place within your body, where hormones act as the messengers delivering important signals.
