Question

Explain why a persion with an underactive thyroid have an increased body mass

Answer 1

Answer:

The hormones your thyroid gland releases help regulate your metabolism, or how efficiently your body burns food for energy. When your thyroid makes less of its hormones — as it does in hypothyroidism — your metabolism slows down. So you won't burn off calories as quickly and you'll gain weight.
