Thyroid hormone affects virtually every organ system in the body, including the heart, nervous system, digestive system, bone, and metabolism.

📌The impact of thyroid hormones on the central nervous system:

📍 In the prenatal period, they are needed for the maturation of the brain.

📍In adults, mood is affected by a thyroid issue:
🔹 in hyperthyroidism, it can lead to restlessness
🔹in hypothyroidism, it can cause brain fog and memory issues

📌The impact of thyroid hormones on metabolism:

📍Thyroid hormones:
🔹affect metabolic rate
🔹stimulate the metabolism of carbohydrates and anabolism of proteins
🔹may cause increased glucose reabsorption and glucose oxidation.

It is within TFI's mission this month to increase awareness of thyroid disorders and the importance of recognizing early symptoms and receiving timely treatment: in case of new symptoms, ask for lab tests and get your neck checked.

Not only selenium and iron but also zinc deficiency may be linked with thyroid autoimmune diseases. Zinc may have regulatory effects on thyroid hormones and it plays a key role in the metabolism of thyroid hormones, specifically

by regulating:
🔹 deiodinase enzyme activity
🔹thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH)
🔹thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) synthesis

and by modulating:
🔹the structures of transcription factors involved in the synthesis of thyroid hormones.

Zinc concentrations may affect:
🔹T3, T4 and TSH levels

Zinc transporters are present in the hypothalamus, pituitary, and thyroid.

Remember:
📌 Micronutrients are essential for normal thyroid function. It is important to consider micronutrient deficiencies (selenium, iron, and zinc) in case of thyroid dysfunction.
