Hypothyroidism and homeopathy

Thyroid problems are a very common medical condition. Thyroid is actually a gland that can be located in the frontal part of neck. Thyroid gland turns iodine intake (that we take from food) to thyroxin -T4 (80%) and triiodothyronine -T3(20%), which are thyroid hormones. Thyroid uses iodine and mixes with tyrosine: it is amino acid and makes T3 and T4. T3 and T4 usually transforms to calories and oxygen.
