Thyroid
The thyroid is responsible for controlling your metabolism, blood calcium levels, energy, excess fats, hormones, oxygen, weight loss. Blood tests can determine your TSH levels to see if you thyroid gland is functioning properly. If you have an under-active thyroid, you are said to have hypothyroidism. If you have an overactive thyroid, you are said to have hyperthyroidism. The thyroid can also be related to several other conditions such as Grave's Disease and heart problems.

Does years of swallowing bubble gum cause weight gain or any other health problems?
It's not a good idea to swallow wads of bubble gum, but it's highly doubtful it would cause any future problems because the stomach acids would do their magic on it and you'd get rid of it through a bowel movement. Watch for the bubble! LOL
It Depends.

Where ishe t thyroid gland is located?
The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located in the base of the neck just below the Adam’s apple. It’s responsible for producing hormones that regulate our metabolism, as well as other body organs.
What effects does radiation for thyroid testing have on a baby?
Prenatal Radiation Exposure The exposure of an unborn baby to radiation is referred to as prenatal radiation exposure. This can occur when the mother's abdomen is exposed to radiation from outside her body. Also, a pregnant woman who accidentally swallows or breathes in radioactive materials may absorb that substance into her bloodstream. From the mother's blood, radioactive materials may pass through the umbilical cord to the baby or concentrate in areas of the mother's body near the womb (such as the urinary bladder) and expose the unborn baby to radiation. The possibility of severe health effects depends on the gestational age of the unborn baby at the time of exposure and the amount of radiation it is exposed to. Unborn babies are less sensitive during some stages of pregnancy than others. However, unborn babies are particularly sensitive to radiation during their early development, between weeks 2 and 15 of pregnancy. The health consequences can be severe, even at radiation doses too low to make the mother sick. Such consequences can include stunted growth, deformities, abnormal brain function, or cancer that may develop sometime later in life. However, since the baby is shielded by the mother's abdomen, it is protected in the womb from radioactive sources outside the mother's body. Consequently, the radiation dose to the unborn baby is lower than the dose to the mother for most radiation exposure events. Pregnant women should consult with their physicians if they have any concern about radiation exposure to their unborn baby. Unborn babies are especially sensitive to the cancer-causing effects of radiation. However, the increased risks depend on the amount of radiation to which the baby was exposed and the amount of time that it was exposed. During the first 2 weeks of pregnancy, the radiation-related health effect of greatest concern is the death of the baby. The unborn baby is made up of only a few cells during the first 2 weeks of pregnancy. Damage to one cell can cause the death of the embryo before the mother even knows that she is pregnant. Of the babies that survive, however, few will have birth defects related to the exposure, regardless of how much radiation they were exposed to. Large radiation doses to the unborn baby during the more sensitive stages of development (between weeks 2 and 15 of pregnancy) can cause birth defects, especially to the brain. When an unborn baby is exposed to large doses of radiation (above the dose received from 500 chest x-rays) during the more sensitive stages of development (especially between weeks 8 and 15 of pregnancy), the health consequences can be severe, especially to the brain. Babies exposed to the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki during the 8- to 15-week stage of pregnancy were found to have a high rate of brain damage that resulted in lower IQs and even severe mental retardation. They also suffered stunted growth (up to 4% shorter than average people) and an increased risk of other birth defects. Between the 16th week of pregnancy and birth, radiation-induced health effects (besides cancer) are unlikely unless the unborn baby receives an extremely large dose of radiation. In the 16- to 25-week stage of pregnancy, health consequences similar to those seen in the 8- to 15-week stage could occur, but only when the doses are extremely large (more than about 5,000 chest x-rays received at one time). At this dose level, the mother could be showing signs of acute radiation syndrome (see www.bt.cdc.gov/radiation/ars.asp), which is sometimes known as radiation sickness. After the 26th week of pregnancy, the radiation sensitivity of the unborn baby is similar to that of a newborn. At the 26th week of pregnancy, the unborn baby is fully developed though not fully grown. Unborn babies exposed to radiation in the womb during this stage of pregnancy are no more sensitive to the effects of radiation than are newborns. This means that birth defects are not If you meant a baby baby, I don't think it's a good idea.
Can epimedium cause side effects?
Ingesting an excess amount of the herb can lead to vomiting, dizziness , thirst, and nosebleed.
What is the purpose of gland steam ejector in centrifugal compressor?
The gland steam ejector in a centrifugal compressor serves to maintain a low-pressure environment at the shaft seal area, preventing the escape of process gas. By creating a vacuum, it helps to minimize leakage and loss of working fluid, which enhances the overall efficiency of the compressor. Additionally, it aids in protecting the compressor from contamination and maintaining a safe operational environment. Overall, the gland steam ejector is crucial for effective sealing and operational reliability.
Are ACE diet pills safe to take for people with thyroid issues?
Most people are able to take ACE diet pills safely when they have thyroid issues. However, it is advised for you to watch out for certain side effects if you take this drug. These side effects include fatigue, hair loss, depression, and muscle cramps.
Yes. It is practically impossible for a surgeon to remove every cell when performing a thyroidectomy. When taking thyroid hormone replacement medication following surgery, thyroid tissue that grows back will not be stimulated to produce thyroid hormone. However, if the patient discontinues medication after confirming regrowth, the new gland may start to overproduce. The result, hyperthyroidism all over again.
What does it mean if they find hot nodules after doing a thyroid scan uptake?
After performing a thyroid scan uptake, if it is determined that there is a hot nodule it typically means that the nodule is hyperfuncitioning. According to the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists ThyroidAwareness.com website, "The scan tells whether the nodule is hyperfunctioning (a "hot" nodule), or taking up more radioactivity than normal thyroid tissue does; taking up the same amount as normal tissue (a "warm" nodule); or taking up less (a "cold" nodule). Because cancer is rarely found in hot nodules, a scan showing a hot nodule eliminates the need for fine needle biopsy. If a hot nodule causes hyperthyroidism, it can be treated with radioiodine or surgery."
What not to consume within 3 hours of taking thyroid medications?
After taking your thyroid medication, it is best to wait at least 30 minutes before eating food. If you eat immediately after taking your thyroid medication, drink coffee, drink alcohol, or even add Metamusil to your water, this can affect the overall effectiveness of your thyroid medication. Make sure to read all of the directions on your thyroid prescription bottle. Doctors will note to not take antacids, calcium or iron within four hours of taking the medication. Talk with your doctor if you have any questions about what you can/cannot consume after taking your thyroid medication.
What precautions should be taken with the Bender-Gestalt test?
.should be administered and interpreted by a trained psychologist or psychiatrist.should always be employed as only one element of a complete battery of psychological or developmental tests.should never be used alone as the sole basis for a diagnosis
In terms of size where does the thyroid cartilage rank in the architecture of the larynx?
The thyroid cartilage is the largest of the nine cartilages that make up the laryngeal skeleton, the cartilage structure in and around the trachea that contains the larynx.
If you mean that the eyes look protuberant or "bugged" out, some people have that as a normal feature of their facial bone structure. In other cases, it can be a sign of a disorder called Grave's Disease, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid gland. This common sign of exophthalmos (sometimes called proptosis), or protuberance of the eyes, often is the first indication of Grave's Disease. There are too many other possibilities to list all conditions that can involve this sign.
If only one eye is bulging, it can also be a sign of a tumor behind the eye.
An eye examination by an Ophthalmologist is recommended when this condition either of one eye or both is first noted.
Ride 'horseback' on the thyroid gland?
Ahh .. the "four horsemen ...." of the thyroid gland are the parathyroids! :)
What does the pituary gland regulate?
The other way around. The pituitary is in charge.
But there is feedback : adrenals to hypothalamus to pituitary to adrenals.
Was there any blood relationship between Joseph and Mary?
Another Answer from our Community
Yes there was, and the names of her parents are known, and comes down to Jewish family genealogies and their accuracy. In his "Daily Bible Illustrations" Dr Kitto writes: The fact that the descent of Jesus from David could be established by registers , and the presence of two such minute pedigrees as those of Matthew and Luke, evince that the Jews were, up to this time, still careful in the registration of family descents....The rabbins [sic] assure us that [after the captivity] they became still more careful in registering their genealogies; with immediate reference, doubtless, to the expectation of the Messiah; but with the ulterior object ...of preserving means for establishing the exact fulfillment of the predictions respecting his parentage. That such existed to even a later date is shown by Josephus, who declares that he traced his own descent in the tribe of Levi by public registers; and he expressly informs us that, however dispersed and dispossessed his nation were, they never failed to have exact genealogical tables prepared from the authentic documents which were kept at Jerusalem; and that in all their sufferings they were particularly careful to preserve these tables, which were renewed from time to time. (From page 76 of "Daily Bible Illustrations - The Life and Death of Our Lord " section "29th Week, Third Day" by Dr Kitto, exact date unknown but possibly 1871.)
The Bible tells us David's wife Bathsheba had 4 sons, 2 of whom were Nathan and Solomon:- 1Ch 3:5 ...[David's]wife Bathsheba, daughter of Ammiel, bore him four sons: Shimea, Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon. Solomon became king, and among his descendants was Joseph, (the husband of Mary the mother of Jesus, and Jesus' stepfather); his genealogy is given in Matthew chapter 1:- Mat 1:7 [Good News Bible] From David to the time when the people of Israel were taken into exile in Babylon, the following ancestors are listed: David, Solomon (his mother was the woman who had been Uriah's wife [ie Bathsheba]), Rehoboam, Abijah, Asa, Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah, Manasseh, Amon, Josiah, and Jehoiachin and his brothers. Mat 1:12 From the time after the exile in Babylon to the birth of Jesus, the following ancestors are listed: Jehoiachin, Shealtiel, Zerubbabel, Abiud, Eliakim, Azor, Zadok, Achim, Eliud, Eleazar, Matthan, Jacob, and Joseph, who married Mary, the mother of Jesus, who was called the Messiah.
However, his wife Mary traced her lineage back to Solomon's brother Nathan:- Luk 3:23-31 CEV When Jesus began to preach, he was about thirty years old. Everyone thought he was the son of Joseph. But his family went back through Heli,[v. 24] Matthat, Levi, Melchi, Jannai, Joseph, [v. 25] Mattathias, Amos, Nahum, Esli, Naggai, [v. 26] Maath, Mattathias, Semein, Josech, Joda; [v. 27] Joanan, Rhesa, Zerubbabel, Shealtiel, Neri, [v. 28] Melchi, Addi, Cosam, Elmadam, Er, [v. 29] Joshua, Eliezer, Jorim, Matthat, Levi; [v. 30] Simeon, Judah, Joseph, Jonam, Eliakim, [v. 31] Melea, Menna, Mattatha, Nathan, David,
Regarding these genealogies in Matthew and Luke, Dr William Smith says in 'Smith's Bible Dictionary' (1884) in the article 'Genealogy of Jesus Christ', that:- "1. They are both the genealogies of Joseph, that is, of Jesus Christas the reputed and legal son of Joseph and Mary. 2. The genealogy of St. Matthew is Joseph's genealogy as legal successor to the throne of David. St. Luke's is Joseph's private Genealogy, exhibiting his real birth as David's son, and thus, showing why he was heir to Solomon's crown. The simple principle that one evangelist exhibits that genealogy which contained the successive heir to David's and Solomon's throne, while the other exhibits the paternal stem of him who was the heir, explains all the anomalies of the two pedigrees, their agreements as well as their discrepancies, and the circumstance of there being two at all. 3. Mary, the mother of Jesus, was in all probability the daughter of Jacob, and first cousin to Joseph, her husband. ... (Godet, Lange and many others take the ground that St. Luke gives the genealogy of Mary, rendering Luk_3:23thus: Jesus"being (as was suppposed), the son of Joseph, (but, in reality), the son of Heli." In this case, Mary, as declared in the Targums, was the daughter of Heli, and Heli was the grandfather of Jesus. Mary's name was omitted because "ancient sentiment did not comport with the mention of the mother as the genealogical link." So we often find in the Old Testament, the grandson called the son. This ... shows that Jesuswas not merely the legal but the actual descendant of David; and it would be very strange that in the gospel accounts, where so much is made of Jesusbeing the son and heir of David and of his kingdom [that] his real descent from David should not be given. ).
In his "Daily Bible Illustrations" Dr Kitto says:-"... But the two genealoogies are materially different. They coincide until David, when Matthew takes the ruling line [ie of Solomon]; whereas Luke takes the ...line by David's son Nathan....Matthew makesJoseph the son of Jacob,whereas Luke represents him as Heli, or Eli. He could not naturally have been the son of both these persons [thus] Jacob and Heli are different names for the same person. They are obviously two different genealogies from the common ancestor David.....[T]he genealogy in Matthew is that of Joseph, and the one in Luke that of Mary - the former being the legal, and the latter the real genealogy of Jesus.....
Furthermore, Mary is always called by the Jews 'the daughter of Heli' and by the early Christian writers 'the daughter of Joakim and Anna'. Now, Joakim and Eliakim (as different names in Hebrew for God) are sometimes interchanged; so that Heli or Eli is an abridged form ofEliakim interchanged for Joakim."(From page 77 of "Daily Bible Illustrations - The Life and Death of Our Lord " section "29th Week, Third Day" by Dr Kitto, exact date unknown but possibly 1871.)
The Bible says in Luke 3:23 that Mary's father was Heli, and he was the "father of Mary and father-in-law of Joseph in the line Jesus Christ's royal ancestry "
It is known from other sources that her father was also called Joachim, and her mother was Anna:- Little is known of Mary's personal history from the New Testament. Her parents are not named in the canonical texts, but in apocryphal sources, widely accepted by later tradition, were Joachim and Anne. She was a relative of Elizabeth, wife of the priest Zechariah of the priestly division of Abijah, who herself was of the lineage of Aaron and so of the tribe of Levi. In spite of this, some speculate that Mary, like Joseph, to whom she was betrothed, was of the House of David and so of the tribe of Judah, and that the genealogy presented in Luke was hers, while Joseph's is given in Matthew.
Saint Joachim ... was the husband of Saint Anneand the father of Mary, the mother of Jesus, and therefore is ascribed the title of "forebearer of God", in the Roman Catholic, Orthodox, and Anglican traditions. The canonical Gospel accounts in the New Testament do not explicitly name either of Mary's parents, but some argue that the genealogy in Luke 3 is that of Mary rather than Joseph, thereby naming her father as Eli. ... The story of Sts Joachim and Anne appears in the apocryphal Gospel of James.
To summarize, the Bible tells us Mary's father was Heli (aka Eli, Eliakim, or Joakim, Joachim) and both an apocryphal gospel and Roman Catholic, Orthodox, and Anglican church tradition tell us her father was Joachim and mother was Anne.
