Tips for thyroid health.
The thyroid gland affects almost all functions of the body. It is for this reason that many organs and systems of the body suffer when disorders occur in the thyroid gland. According to doctors, it is not very difficult to prevent thyroid diseases. For this, you just need to follow the very simple recommendations of doctors.
- The main cause of diseases of the thyroid gland is lack of iodine. For this reason, the first recommendation of world endocrinologists is to use iodized salt. However, it should also be taken into account that iodized salt should not be used in case of thyrotoxicosis (increased activity of the thyroid gland), thyroid cancer and some other diseases.
- The thyroid gland does not like excessive exposure to sunlight. For this reason, it is very dangerous to abuse "zagar". This should be considered especially by people with thyroid diseases among close relatives.
- According to doctors' observations, smoking can stimulate the development of thyroid gland diseases. For this reason, quitting smoking is very important for thyroid health.
- Hypovitaminosis and avitaminosis (deficiency of vitamins and minerals) develop in the body as a result of incomplete nutrition, unbalanced diets, hunger. This is very harmful for health. For the normal functioning of the thyroid gland, it needs many other substances in addition to iodine - manganese, copper, zinc, iron, cobalt, etc. The lack of these substances has a negative effect on the health of the thyroid gland. A person's nutrition should be varied, all the main groups of food products (fruits and vegetables, meat and dairy products, legumes, leguminous plants, vegetable oils, etc.) should be included in the diet. Only in this case, a person will provide his body with all the substances necessary for its normal functioning.
- Strong stress can promote the development of thyroid gland diseases. For this reason, doctors recommend staying away from stressful situations as much as possible, and in case of very strong, chronic stress, seek the help of specialists.
- Frequently recurring infectious and viral diseases are very harmful for the health of the thyroid gland. Chronic inflammations in the ENT organs (ear, nose, throat) are especially dangerous. For this reason, it is very important to treat such inflammations in time.
- According to doctors' observations, excess body weight can also cause disorders in the thyroid gland.
- Constant strengthening of the immune system is extremely important for the health of all organs, including the thyroid gland. Proper nutrition, physical activity, outdoor walks, sufficient sleep and rest are the main factors that ensure the health of a person's immune system.
- Preventive examinations are very important. These examinations allow detecting human disorders in the initial stages. This ensures faster and easier treatment of any disease.
