The thyroid gland is responsible for hormone production and metabolism throughout the human body. If the activity of the gland is below normal, then this can lead to a disease such as hypothyroidism. It is characterized by an overly harsh reaction to temperature changes, rapid fatigue, and weight gain. To stimulate the activity of the thyroid gland, a special thyroid-stimulating hormone is formed in the brain. It was his level and the ratio of human weight that scientists studied on more than 2000 people. The study found that overweight people had significantly higher levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone, although they fluctuated within the normal range. In general, the entire study group of people aged 45-48 gained weight during the study (3.5 years). At the same time, men and women who had a higher level of thyroid-stimulating hormone recovered more. However, the results of the study have not yet been fully analyzed. Metabolism is controlled by the nervous and endocrine systems. This complex process is not yet fully understood. In addition, it is believed that the thyroid gland and body weight are interdependent and can affect each other.
