Thyroid location
Thyroid gland is the butterfly-shaped and is located inside the neck. When viewed from the back, there is a parathyroid gland.
Function of thyroid
Thyroxine is produced and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland, stimulated by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). In this case, iodine is needed to produce thyroxine. Thyroxine enhances the metabolic function of cells and accelerates the breakdown of all substances. That is, the basal metabolic rate increases. Excess secretion of thyroxine leads to weight loss, rapid pulse, and excessive sweating. Weight loss pills, like licorice, contain this thyroxine.
When too little thyroxine is secreted, all metabolism slows down and the heart beats slower. If your thyroxine secretion is low, you may have hard time standing up to cold, your speech becomes slurred, muscle reflexes become slow down, and the body and stature become dull.
