January is Thyroid Awareness Month. Thyroid problems tend to more common in women.  Common symptoms include:  Fatigue, feeling "cold", anxiety, dry skin, loss of hair, depression, and having trouble losing wt.  Elevated cholesterol is also common.  Treating the cholesterol levels with statins will not alsways lower the cholesterol levels until the thyroid is corrected.  Some studies attribute the thyroid problems to the use of fluoride in tap water.  Other studies suggest the lack of iodine in our diets.

This month, if you mention this online special, we will offer a Thyroid panel (blood test) for #38.50 ( a 15% savings).  If you have been wondering about the health of your thyroid now is  a great time to get this done.
