The thyroid gland, which is located in the neck, produces hormones that affect a variety of metabolic processes in the body. If the body does not produce sufficient amounts of the thyroid hormone T4, symptoms of underactive thyroid result.Among these symptoms are fatigue, depression, weight gain, hair loss, feeling cold often, constipation, brittle or splitting nails, memory problems, and dry skin.Since iodine is required to produce thyroid hormones, certain foods that are rich in this important mineral may play a key role.mong these symptoms are fatigue, depression, weight gain, hair loss, feeling cold often, constipation, brittle or splitting nails, memory problems, and dry skin.

Flowers lure pollinators in several ways, with color as their main attractant. Bees are drawn to yellow, blue and white but cannot see red. When you spot a bee burrowing deeply into a red or pink flower, the center of the flower is probably yellow. The center holds the flowerâs reproductive organs.
...There are Blue, Red, and Green Bees. 1  I like bees. 2  The Blue Orchard Mason Bee (Osmia lignaria) is found in the northern range of the Rocky Mountains mainly in British Colombia. 3  Red bees (Osmia rufa) are very similar to the blue bee in how they forage, nest, and sting (except the male has no stinger). When laying eggs the male larvae are placed closer to the nest's opening so they emerge first. They are found in parts of the UK, Scandinavia, mainland Europe, and parts of the Middle East.
