The thymus is a very important lymph gland located right above the heart. When you're born, the thymus is large, and as you get older, it shrinks.  The thymus has a very important primary function called central tolerance. Tolerance is all about preventing a self-attack. You don't want your own immune system to go rogue and destroy your own tissues.  T cells — T cells are developed in the thyroid gland.  There are three types of T cells:  • Killer cells — Kill viral infected cells (needs iodine)  • Helper T cells
