Most people aren\u2019t really aware of the attention their thyroid deserves\u2014that\u2019s probably why somebody decided to make an awareness month for it. If you weren\u2019t already in the know about what your thyroid does, we can simplify the answer for you: it\u2019s a lot.<\/em><\/a>This forgettable butterfly-shaped gland is part of the endocrine system, working with a bunch of other organs and glands to produce hormones that help control your body\u2019s growth rate and metabolism, and can regulate sexual function.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

So Here\u2019s Why You Should Pay Attention<\/h4>\n<\/div>
\n\n<\/div>
\n

If your thyroid isn\u2019t working the way it\u2019s supposed to, that can lead to a lot of different complications<\/a>, including Graves\u2019 disease. And throwing your thyroid out of whack can be caused by something as simple as too much stress. So to make sure your thyroid is in tip-top shape, keep your stress minimal<\/a>, and a balanced diet with plenty of nutrition<\/a> won\u2019t hurt you, either.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n<\/div>
\n

And If You\u2019re Concerned?\u00a0<\/h4>\n<\/div>
\n\n<\/div>
\n

You won\u2019t have to look far. Hancock Health\u2019s endocrinology department<\/a> is more than happy to address any concerns you might have and will work with you to keep that vital gland operating exactly how it\u2019s supposed to.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
