Whatis the thyroid gland?
Your thyroid gland does a certain kind of work in your body. Your ears allow you
to hear, your eyes make you see and your thyroid makes you grow normally and
stay healthy. Because radiation affected their thyroid glands, some of the boysin
Rongelap grew slowly after the fallout. In 1965, they were given special medicine
and they grow normally. If you have a
thyroid operation,it is very important
that you take the medicinethatis given
to you. The medicine will do the same
work as your thyroid and it will keep
you healthy.
