Two hormones secreted by the Thyroid are:
1. Thyroxine
Also called tetraiodothyronine (T4)
Increases metabolism
2. Triiodothyronine (T3)
Increases metabolism
Both aid cells by increasing uptake of oxygen to support metabolism

3. Calcitonin
Decreases calcium levels in blood by removing calcium from bloodstream and moving it to bones
