There are an estimated 59 million Americans suffering from various problems that can be attributed to some type of thyroid malfunction. Yet, many people have not been checked or accurately diagnosed. The thyroid, a butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck, is the master gland of metabolism. When thyroid function is less than optimal, it can impact every aspect of your life. Key areas of concern are weight, depression and energy levels.

Undiagnosed and untreated thyroid problems may dramatically increase risk of:
