If we imagine the human endocrine system as an orchestra, then the thyroid gland will be a soloist in it, on the normal functioning of which the work of many internal organs depends. It produces hormones that regulate the functioning of the liver, stimulates and prevents the immune system from falling apart, promotes the coordinated activity of the nerves, and is also responsible for our sexual desire. Scientists have found that women are more prone to diseases of the "soloist". The exact reasons for this are not named, but there is a hypothesis that the representatives of the weaker sex are more susceptible to emotional manifestations and are sensitive to any endocrine disruptions.
The main causes of problems in the work of this body is the lack of iodine. It can lead to a decrease in activity, as a result of which a diffuse goiter or nodules on the thyroid gland may gradually form. They are of two types:
- The first, not very dangerous, colloidal type, occurs after a partial defeat.
- The second type - tumors (adenomas -benign growths, and cancerous tumors).
Colloids won't go anywhere, it's like adhesions after surgery. In relation to adenomas, it is possible to treat thyroid nodules with folk remedies. But it will go as an auxiliary, together with medication.
First you need to decide on the symptoms. The following manifestations should alert every woman: the appearance of apathy and a complete lack of interest, chronic fatigue at any time of the day, a constant desire to sleep, memory loss, hearing and vision loss, a sharp set of extra pounds, brittle nails and hair. If you find at least half of the signs from this list, you need to see a doctor and be examined. But pain in the thyroid gland cannot appear, this is a myth. This impression is created due to the fact that the enlarged gland presses on the trachea, and the person feels suffocation and discomfort. In general, many organs do not declare themselves with direct pain, but “get off” with a deterioration in general well-being. Therefore, despite the high level of medicine, we did not get sick less, because we often notice problems only when they become inevitable.
Treatment of thyroid nodules with folk remedies should be done carefully. First you need to make sure that the state of the body allows you to apply these methods. You need to start by balancing your diet. Iodine is found in seafood and seaweed. The former, of course, are quite expensive, but algae can be found at reasonable prices if you do not buy instore, but in the market at a seller selling ingredients for Korean cuisine. You can make a lot of delicious salads from seaweed. You also need to get away from simple s alt and switch to sea s alt, it really has active iodine. Many common vegetables also have this element. Eggplant is considered the record holder, followed by tomatoes, beets, carrots, garlic and many others.
Treatment of thyroid nodules with folk remedies can be carried out using chokeberry and feijoa. It is taken in a glass of fruit and sprinkled with sugar, to taste. Take 2 tablespoons, you can with a decoction. For him, first make a collection of the following herbs: mint, senna, flax seed, motherwort, immortelle, buckthorn, wormwood, tansy. A collection spoon is poured with boiling water and left for 20 minutes, then you can use a quarter cup at a time.
Treatment of thyroid nodules with folk remedies can also be carried out locally, that is, with lotions and compresses. For example, from oak bark and shells and partitions of walnuts. They must be boiled for at least one and a half hours, then moisten a piece of cloth with this decoction and attach to the neck. On the basis of partitions of walnuts, a vodka infusion is also made (a 0.5-liter container is filled by a third with partitions, poured with vodka to the top, insisted for about a month). They are treated with infusion in courses of one month, taking ten-day breaks. There are three courses in total. Take 1 table. spoon before eating.
