Optimum function of thyroid gland is pivotal to the production or cellular energy, the maintenance of appropriate body temperature, the achievement or management of correct body weight, cholesterol metabolism, and the overall feeling of vitality and wellness.

Main symptoms of sub-optimal thyroid function include fatigue and a body temperature that is too cold. This is because when our bodies burn calories from the food we eat, we makes energy which makes heat, thus a lack of either one can indicate a metabolism that is not up to scratch. Such individuals tend to get tired easily or eat to excess at given times.

Irregular or erratic function of the thyroid can be due to many things and if you are concerned it is recommended in the first instance that you seek medical advice as there are several clinical conditions which can generate symptoms similar if not identical to those exhibited by a poorly functioning thyroid.

Hypo-Thyroidism (under-active). Symptoms include Fatigue, lethargy and slowed movement, depression, memory problems. weight gain, constipation, intolerance of cold and cold extremities, dry hair and skin, goitre, puffiness around the eyes, heavy periods.

Hyper-Thyroidism (over-active). Symptoms include Mood changes, restlessness, anxiety, difficulty in sleeping, weight loss despite increased appetite, rapid heartbeat, increased sweating, intolerance of heat, bulging irritated eyes, muscle weakness, lightness or complete absence of periods.

However, the power of correct nutrition via diet and the associated supply of key nutrients cannot be overlooked in the proper function of this important gland. A proper and optimal balance of nutrients is extremely important to help manufacture and activate thyroid hormones and a lack of nutrients can have a direct effect on the body's ability to produce energy.
