Most people who come to see me for depression, anxiety, mood ups/downs, hair loss, insomnia, weight problems, etc etc… I discover that they have a thyroid gland which isn’t working up to speed. Why?

And yes, it does support our immune system plus a whole lot more. The primary positive benefit is to reduce inflammation, the big factor in all illness.
