Hyperthyroidism May Increase the Risk of Getting Dementia in Women

According to a recent study presented at the 15th International Thyroid Congress and 85th Annual Meeting of the American Thyroid Association, data evaluated are from 9,495 adults with an average age of 64.9 years to determine the relationship between the function of the thyroid and the risk for dementia and MRI-related brain structures.

It is found that higher levels of free T4 were associated with a significantly higher risk for dementia. Findings also found that there is an increased risk for dementia in women, which is associated with higher free thyroxine levels. There is no risk increase found among men.

      My HSV2 Journey, A Natural Healing Success

      I was diagnosed with HSV2 14 years ago, and honestly, it was pretty overwhelming at first. I got some info about tablets to help manage the outbreaks, but i was on a mission to find a natural remedy. As someone who loves hitting the gym and navigating the usual life stresses, I was facing outbreaks almost every month that could last for weeks.
      I tried just about everything. Tea tree oil? Ouch, that stuff stung like crazy. Lysine? Sometimes it helped, but I had to take over 6000 mg daily, which just left me exhausted. Hot baths didn’t do anything for me either. I noticed that smoking and drinking seemed to trigger outbreaks, so I decided to cut those out since they weren’t doing my health any favors in my mid-30s.
      Even regular exercise would lead to more outbreaks, and let’s not even talk about manscaping, definitely a no go. On top of all that, my mood was sinking, and I was feeling pretty down. My sex life was non existent, and I just wanted to feel like myself again. I wasn't a fan of prescription meds, and I was avoiding doctors because, you know, manly reasons. But I finally thought, why not?
      After reading some great reviews online about Dr Utu Herbal Cure
      , I decided to give it a shot. I reached out through his email at drutuherbalcure@gmail.com and ordered the Herpes Herbal Cleanser. I received the herbal cleanser through DHL and committed to a four week treatment plan.
      Fast forward to when I got my blood tested, it came back negative for HSV2! I even went to another hospital for a second test, and once again, NEGATIVE! This was a total game changer for my health, and I can’t believe how quickly 13+ years of depression lifted.
      Feeling like myself again has been truly incredible!
