The thyroid's function is to regulate the metabolism of the body. How fast things go, or how slow things go. It does everything from the top of the head, all the way to the toes, in regard to how fine your hair is, how coarse your hair is. How fine or coarse your skin is, if you have diarrhea, or constipation on the extremes. It also will regulate your weight. If you're a fast metabolizer where you're burning calories, or if you're a slow metabolizer where you're going to gain weight. It also can affect your heartbeat, in terms of how fast or how slow it goes.

Thyroid is one of the six hormones that affect weight gain. What it does, it regulates how fast you burn food. If you are hypothyroid, where your thyroid level is low, then you're not going to burn the calories. You're going to hold onto those calories. If you're hyperthyroid, where your thyroid gland is overactive, then you're going to run through those calories, and you actually will lose weight. It's a very important link.
