If you’re just not feeling like yourself, talk to your doctor. It could be your thyroid. (For Spectrum Health Beat)
When your thyroid isn’t working properly, it can cause a lot of problems. It’s important to understand what your thyroid does and to be aware of signs that can signal a health issue.
The thyroid is a small gland located near the base of your neck. Its primary job is to produce the hormones that control many bodily functions, including how fast you burn calories and how fast your heart beats.
