Thyroid
and Parathyroid Glands
The
thyroid gland is shaped like a butterfly and usually weighs less than
one ounce. The thyroid cartilage covers the larynx and produces the
prominence on the neck known as the "Adam's Apple". The
thyroid gland controls the rate at which the body produces energy from
nutrients. If the body does not get enough iodine, the thyroid gland
cannot produce a proper amount of hormones for this conversion process.
The result can be a goiter, an enlargement of the thyroid gland. In some
parts of the world, iodine is so scarce that most of the population have
goiters. The parathyroid glands are four small oval bodies located on
each corner of the thyroid gland. These glands control the level of
calcium in the blood. The thyroid gland secretes hormones which regulate
energy, and emotional balance may rely upon its normal functioning. When
the rate of production is excessive, the results can be weight loss,
nervousness, or even emotional disturbances. If the rate of production
is excessively low, a slowing of bodily functions may result. The
parathyroid glands, located behind the thyroid, control the
blood-calcium level. Calcium is important, not only for bones and teeth,
but also for nerve functioning, muscle contractions, blood clotting and
glandular secretion. If we don't have enough calcium for these
functions, the body will take it from the bones, causing them to easily
fracture. It may also cause twitching, spasms, convulsions and even
death. Too much calcium may cause a weakening of muscle tone and kidney
stones.
