Thyroid Disorders - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The thyroid gland is located in the neck and produces hormones which affect all the major body systems such as heart function and circulation, metabolism and the immune system. Over-or under-production of these hormones can have serious health implications such as depression, heart problems, hypothermia and digestive disorders, although with early treatment a full recovery is possible. This comprehensive book describes and explains the symptoms of thyroid problems, what causes them, how they are diagnosed and treated and how the patient can best manage the disorder and care for their health.
