Ready to make changes in the new year? Is weight one of them? This is for you.
A very important part of weight loss and gentle detoxing is learning how and why the body functions the way it does. It functions as a whole system. Crash or fad diets may work in the short term but may cause long term frustration and even damage to the body. Losing weight is a personal journey and requires support for the body, mind, emotions and spirit.
Did you know the thyroid is an important gland that plays a key role in weight management, plus many other functions of the body?
Before you even set weight loss goals, get your thyroid checked. The thyroid is located in the front of the neck and can be balanced, over active or under active. When out of balance, not only are hormones impacted, but also weight gain or loss. It is important to have annual thyroid checkups with your healthcare professional.
