The thyroid is
a gland that has an immediate effect on the metabolism. Hormonal
activity of the thyroid is important for maintaining health and
a continuous quality of life. It is responsible for the process
of correct growth and maturing. Disorders of thyroid gland functions
cause changes in the metabolisms of fats, carbohydrates and proteins,
but also minerals and vitamins.
Considering the effect on the
regulation of metabolism, body temperature and a complete physical
and psychological health of individuals,
we felt it necessary to include a nutritionist approach to treating
disorders of this gland.
