• Low functioning thyroid is a new epidemic of the society affecting more than 3% of people. If thyroid function is low, it causes weight gain, loss of energy, cold intolerance and menstrual irregularities in women. • All people who are aged 50 and above should have their thyroid profile (TSH test) done to look for thyroid deficiency. • In younger people, or in cases of infertility, menstrual irregularity, pregnancy, weight gain, one should check for thyroid deficiency. • Iodized salt should be used to prevent thyroid deficiency. • Non–iodized salt is only used in two conditions: firstly in patient with thyroid inflammation and secondly, while doing Jalneti in naturopathy, a yoga–related nasal wash technique. • In pregnancy, even mild thyroid deficiency can affect the growth of fetus hence dose requirement of thyroid medicine is much higher in pregnancy than in non–pregnancy. • In the elderly, the dose of thyroid medicine to be started is always low as compared to one in the adults. • If thyroid deficiency is untreated, osteoporosis (thickening of bone) and/or atrial fibrillation (irregular and fast heart rate) may result. Osteoporosis can cause recurrent fractures and atrial fibrillation may cause brain paralysis. • In Allopathic medicine, thyroid deficiency is treated by synthetic T4 hormone replacement. In TFSP, thyroid extracts are available, which contain both T4 and T3 potential drugs. • In Ayurveda, thyroid stimulant drugs are available but they are effective only if some amount of thyroid gland is available. • As per Ayurveda, eating soya and drinking water from copper vessel is good for thyroid.
