About the thyroid:
Full endocrineweb.com article HERE. The sole function of the thyroid gland is to make thyroid hormone. This hormone has an effect on nearly all tissues of the body where it increases cellular activity [so an underactive thyroid means more body fat?

Full yourhormones.info article HERE. The thyroid gland produces hormones which regulate the body’s metabolic rate as well as heart and digestive function, muscle control, brain development and bone maintenance. Its correct functioning depends on having a good supply of iodine from the diet. The release of thyroid hormones from the thyroid gland is controlled by thyrotrophin-releasing hormone(TRH) from the hypothalamus in the brain and by thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) produced by the pituitary gland. This forms part of a feedback loop called the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis.
