About the Thyroid The thyroid gland is located at the front of the neck, below the voice box. The thyroid gland is a soft, small bow-shaped gland, below the voice box or larynx (Adam’s Apple) on either side of the trachea (windpipe). Thyroid disease affects women more than men and is usually caused by an autoimmune disease. Iodine deficiency is the most common worldwide cause of thyroid disorders. Along with thyroid auto-immune disease, a low-iodine diet can cause hypothyroidism, an enlarged thyroid gland (goitre), infertility, pregnancy outcomes and foetal brain development. As part of the endocrine system, the thyroid plays a critical role in the healthy function of the body, influencing and regulating the activity of all cells and tissues. A healthy thyroid gland uses ingested iodine from iodine enriched foods to produce thyroid hormones which regulate body and brain growth and development, body temperature, energy levels and metabolic functions. #thyroid #austhyroidfdn #WorldThyroidDay Ds_vIxlE6LE |
