May 18-24 is the Week of Prevention of Diseases of the endocrine system.
The endocrine system works like the conductor of an orchestra: if one instrument (thyroid gland, adrenal glands, pancreas) is stretched, the whole body suffers. Mood, weight, energy, appetite, and even whether you wake up refreshed depend on these glands.
The most common "breakdowns" today are hypothyroidism, diabetes mellitus and autoimmune thyroiditis. The good news is that many problems can be prevented, especially when it comes to the thyroid gland.
Evelina Maratovna Sitdikova, an endocrinologist at the Yelabuga Central District Hospital, told about 5 simple rules for the prevention of thyroid diseases.
The thyroid gland controls the metabolism and heat in the body. The main enemy for her is iodine deficiency and constant stress.
