On this World Environment Day, it's important to recognize the significant impact climate change has on our health. As highlighted in a recent article by News9Live, climate change is linked to several diseases. Among these, the risk of hypothyroidism is of particular concern. Changes in temperature and environmental stressors can disrupt thyroid function, leading to a range of health issues. Thyroid medications are already the most prescribed drug in the country, growing at a high 5% CAGR. Could climate change be the sole reason? We doubt it, considering the autoimmune component of hypothyroidism, but it definitely plays a role! https://lnkd.in/ewp9mT6c #WorldEnvironmentDay #ClimateChange #ThyroidHealth #Hypothyroidism #PalomaHealth #womenshealth
