Welcome
The North Texas Thyroid Awareness Foundation Inc.'s goal is to be the voice of the many women and men who suffer from Thyroid Disease and have yet to be heard. For this
reason,The North Texas Thyroid Awareness Foundation Inc. was created. Thyroid
disease is a medical condition impairing the function of the thyroid gland which
regulates the body's metabolism. This disease can wreak havoc on the body's ability
to produce energy, build muscle, regulate body temperature, produce hormones and
much more.
Therefore, the North Texas Thyroid Awareness Foundation Inc. strives to educate citizens on the different diseases covered by thyroid disease. The NTTAF cannot stress enough just how critical it is to have your thyroid tested. The main goal of the foundation is to insure that thyroid testing becomes routine during annual checkups. The minor inconvenience of a blood test could have a major effect on one's life. The foundation encourages people to speak up at their next annual checkup and ask for a quick screening of the thyroid.
