Hello friends of Steemit in this opportunity I want to write to you about a disease that is silent and could go unnoticed while we attribute the symptoms to the stress of the day to day. Sometimes we believe that with only eating we will get fat but it happens that we must mix several factors (healthy eating, exercise routine and at the same time resting, multivitamins) so that our body gives us a favorable response but sometimes the same fails then you ask .. what's going on...??

Why do not I get fat?

Well, get a hormone check you may have Hyperthyroidism, the thyroid is a small butterfly-shaped gland, located in the front of the neck just below the Adam's apple and in front of the trachea (if it is not pathological it is impossible to see it). simple sight, if you have any disease can be visible and palpable by means of some palpation maneuver), produces a hormone called thyroxine that is responsible for metabolism and other functions.

When the thyroid hormones are produced in excess (T3 triiodothyronine - T4 thyroxine) we speak of hyperthyroidism, the most frequent form being Graves-Basedow disease. The most common symptoms of hyperthyroidism are:
  • Exhaustion.

  • Weightloss.

  • Hypertension

  • Nervousness.

  • Tachycardia.

  • Increase in sweating.

  • Feeling of heat when others do not feel it.

  • Change in menstrual periods.

  • Most frequent bowel movements

  • Fine Tremor.

  • Bulging eyes.

  • Sudden changes of mood.

That in turn produces a large cardiac output, it is as if you were doing exercises at all times.

But do not be alarmed, hyperthyroidism is a curable disease if it is treated in time; For the treatment, drugs, Radioactive Iodine or Surgery are used, after being controlled the hormonal storm 90% of the cases are converted to hypothyroidism that is less aggressive for the cardiovascular system and for the nervous system; is in all aspects contrary to hyperthyroidism (there is weight gain, lethargy, cold intolerance, hypotension) in terms of signs and symptoms and being a chronic disease can live with it with life-long treatment and adequate dose.
Soon I will write another post #stemm ..
