Abstract

Development of Thyroid disease is presenting great challenges to countries worldwide.  In India too, thyroid disorders are a major concern these days.  This increase in thyroid disorders may be due to more and more frantic life style that people engage themselves in today (Verma and Jameel 2012).and similarly because of the lack of suitable nutrients in the soil. Hypothyroidism and Hyperthyroidism are the two main disorders caused by a variety of conditions and passes through the generations by inheritance. Millions of people in the world are suffering from thyroid disorders. A woman is about seven to ten times more likely to be more likely to be diagnosed with a thyroid condition than men. Medicinal plants are part of the social life of people and play a crucial role in the health management. The study showed that the herbal remedies to the thyroid disorders are less expensive harmless, easy to assess, eco-friendly and potentially effective. In present study we aim to focus on effective of select herbs on curing thyroid disorders and study their effects on thyroid disorders with respect to following parameters: blood pressure, body temperature, body mass index and pulse rate in thyroid patients. Herbal remedies in thyroid patients moderate these parameters and the main benefit of new herbs in thyroid disorders are discussed in the present study.
