“…An excess of unrelated iron promotes thyroid gland impairment, as excess iron generates free radicals that trigger fat oxidation and lipid oxide generation, resulting in cellular toxicity and cell injury [31]. When Transferrin saturated to bind with iron, thus, Iron cannot accesses specific tissues, and TSH activity is boosted by opening calcium channels and activating protein kinase [32].…”

The lack of iron storage has a significant impact on the thyroid gland's efficiency, and its synthesis of hormones, which are required for biological activities in the body, has been compromised. Furthermore, thyroid issues have a negative impact on iron levels in the body and the amount of iron stored. Inactivity of the gland leads to poor iron absorption, and it is frequently misdiagnosed with hypothyroidism due to similar symptoms. Although hypothyroidism and iron insufficiency are distinct illnesses, they are sometimes linked. Hypothyroidism can impair the body's ability to absorb iron, resulting in iron deficiency anemia. Furthermore, because both illnesses can induce symptoms like weariness, weakness, and pale skin, it's critical to receive a good diagnosis to discover the underlying source of these symptoms. Iron deficiency is commonly connected with hypothyroidism. Current research has demonstrated that adding iron to hormonal therapy for the treatment of pathological hypothyroidism situations improved the pathological condition as compared to using hormonal therapy for the thyroid gland alone.
