View Medical News Thyroid and Weight Brochure [4/0] Vote Up Vote Down http://thyroid.org/patients/patient_brochures/weight.html Submitted by nkharrufa 17 months, 1 week, 17 hours ago It has been appreciated for a very long time that there is a complex relationship between thyroid disease, body weight and metabolism. Thyroid hormone regulates metabolism in both animals and humans. Metabolism is determined by measuring the amount of oxygen used by the body over a specific amount of time. If the measurement is made at rest, it is known as the basal metabolic rate (BMR). Indeed, measurement of the BMR was one of the earliest tests used to assess a patient’s thyroid status.
