339: The Energy Series: Thyroid and Metabolism [Part 5]

In our final episode in the Energy Series, we're going to take a look at the thyroid gland, thyroid hormones and how it impacts your ENERGY.

Fun fact: Did you know you have thyroid hormone receptors on every single cell of your body? Although we often associate the thyroid gland with our metabolism, the thyroid gland affects MANY functions in your body.

Signs of an underactive thyroid gland (which is far more common and overactive) are:

brain fog or memory problems hair loss low energy/ fatigue weight gain constipation depression or mood swings high cholesterol sensitivity to cold

In this week's episode I share:
🦋 Why so many women who struggle with low thyroid hormones are told that everything is normal
🦋 The ACTUAL root cause of thyroid conditions
🦋 What to do to support your thyroid gland 

I'm so glad you're here!

The thyroid gland is regulated by the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland, which release hormones that stimulate or inhibit the production of thyroid hormones as needed to maintain a balance in the body. When the thyroid gland produces too much or too little thyroid hormone, it can lead to a range of health problems, including hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) and hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid).
