Hormone Balancing Part 2: Your Thyroid Gland

The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped endocrine gland that is  located in the lower front of the neck. The thyroid’s job is to make thyroid hormones, which control metabolism for your entire body.  Thyroid hormones also help the body use food for energy. Additionally, they help us to stay warm and keep the brain, heart, muscles, and other organs working at their optimum levels.  Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher continues a multi=episode talk on the role of hormones and health.  This episode introduces the audience to the thyroid gland.
