Can Viruses Directly Harm the Thyroid Gland‪?‬ Save My Thyroid

    • Alternative Health

In past episodes, I’ve discussed the impact of viruses such as Epstein-Barr on the immune system. The same viruses can also impact the thyroid gland, both directly and indirectly.

As usual, I dove into research around this, and today I’m sharing three research studies, breaking down how they were designed and exploring the results they found.

In this episode, you’ll learn what research shows about:
Whether viruses are possible triggers of autoimmune thyroid diseaseThe most common viruses that were identified in patients undergoing thyroid surgeryCytomegalovirus as a causative agent of thyroiditisPeople with compromised immune systems are more susceptibleThe direct and indirect effects of COVID-19 on thyroid healthAs always, I hope you found this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
