Thyroid Beginner series #1 - What Does Your Thyroid do & Why is it so Important?
This is video #1 in my thyroid beginner series. This series includes videos which are only 5-10 minutes in length and designed to get you up to date on thyroid basics.
Video #1 in this series focuses on what your thyroid does and the basics of how it actually works.
Your thyroid is influenced by signals from the brain which tell your body to produce thyroid hormone which then acts on your cells.
Anything which interferes with this process will results in decreased thyroid hormone and symptoms that you will experience!

Hey guys!
I'm Dr. Westin Childs and I focus on thyroid health, hormone balance, and weight loss. I write about thyroid disorders, weight loss, insulin resistance, estrogen/progesterone balance on my blog. I truly believe that hormone balance is the key to managing your weight, your mood and your quality of life which is why I'm so passionate about it.
I take a personalized/functional medicine approach to management of conditions. I'm not accepting patients but you can learn more and get plenty of information on my blog!
