Feeling off? Here's what your thyroid might be trying to tell you
Specialist GP Dr. Angelica Logarta-Scott says the thyroid controls the metabolism which affects energy, weight, and mood. When it is not working properly, the whole body can feel out of balance. There are two main thyroid problems. Hyperthyroidism means the body is running too fast and can cause anxiety, weight loss, and sweating. Hypothyroidism means the body is running too slow and can cause tiredness, weight gain, and brain fog. Thyroid issues are common and treatable with the right medication or hormone supplements. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle can also help support thyroid health. It is important to see a doctor if you notice ongoing changes in your energy, weight, or mood says Dr. Scott.

No backer needed: Understanding Australia's ‘fair go' culture for Filipino migrants
Australia's 'Fair Go' principle ensures that employment is based on merit, not connections or influence, which might seem in contrast to the workplace culture in the Philippines. Filipino migrants in Australia have one of the highest employment rates among migrant groups, with 87% of skilled migrants in work as of 2023.
