Hypothyroidism is a chronic illness that can affect anyone but is particularly common in women. It's even estimated that as much as 10% of the general population of women may suffer from at least a minor form of this condition. If you're one of the 10 million people in America currently living with a diagnosis, it's time for you to discover an herb known as Ashwagandha. Adding this natural plant to your treatment routine is very easy and has a lot of promise for reducing your symptoms and improving your health.

What is Hypothyroidism?

The thyroid is a small gland, located at the bottom of the neck, that is largely responsible for regulating the body's metabolism through the release of the right hormones. When your thyroid gland becomes underactive or even stops working altogether, you'll naturally experience a lot of metabolism-related problems. Some of the most common symptoms of this condition include:

• 

  General fatigue and tiredness no matter how much you rest

• Muscle weakness that comes and goes in different parts of the body

• Steady or sudden weight gain that is hard to lose no matter how much you restrict calorie intake

• Cramping in various major muscle groups, mainly the back, legs, and upper arms

• Increased sensitivity to cold temperatures, to the point of being physically uncomfortable due to air conditioning or a cool breeze outside

• Hair loss that can't be traced to stress or hormonal imbalances

• Chronic constipation

• Depression and mood swings

• Anger and overblown reactions to small irritations

• Dry skin and hair that does not respond well to typical moisturizers

• Pale skin despite sun exposure or a complexion that is naturally darker

• Absent or irregular menstrual cycles

• Loss of sex drive and sexual response to stimulus.

Even the most minor cases of thyroid dysfunction can trigger a cascade of these bothersome symptoms to interrupt your life. While this condition is not directly life-threatening, it can make you feel so depressed that you can't handle your daily responsibilities anymore. Taking control of your thyroid's function is difficult, but it's worth the effort to find the right treatment to restore your natural metabolism. Allowing your metabolism to fail without assistance could leave you struggling with long-term obesity and the serious health risks that come along with it.

5 Reasons Why Your Thyroid and Metabolism Is Slow

Your Thyroid is responsible for the hormones regulating your metabolism. It extracts iodine, as well as secondary nutrients such as tyrosine, from the bloodstream and produces the hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). T3 and T4 are transported throughout the body where they control the body's metabolism, determining how many calories to convert to energy. If your body is feeling slow, if you're more tired than usual, or if you just don't feel like you used to, your thyroid might be the reason behind these problems.

According to the United States National Library of Medicine, thyroid disease affects 27 million Americans. Approximately 13 million of those affected are presently undiagnosed. People suffer from low metabolism and hormone imbalance and never consider seeing a doctor. Thyroid problems can be triggered by the production of too much hormone (hyperthyroidism), too little hormone (hypothyroidism), or cancer.

Hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism are silent epidemics. They can be hard to diagnose because in most cases they are linked to other health problems. Symptoms often appear gradually so patients may not feel like anything is wrong for a while. Most people schedule an appointment when they discover a lump on their neck. Depending on the symptoms, a doctor may perform several tests before diagnosing a thyroid disorder. If you have symptoms associated with hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, consider taking supplements together with your medication. Try any of these natural remedies for thyroid disorders and improve your thyroid’s functionality.

If you’re having unexplainable mood swings, constantly feel tired, or have difficulty sleeping, chances are your body is producing excess thyroid hormones.

Sure, you may be eating the right foods in the right proportions, but you have no way of regulating the amount of nutrients you ingest.

As a result, you may end up suffering from hyperthyroidism (an overproduction of thyroid hormones T3 and T4).

To ensure you remain healthy, take natural supplements for hyperthyroidism. You will restore the function of your thyroid gland and keep thyroid disorders at bay.
