I read an interesting article today, that points to 3 very common viruses/infections, that could possibly be the underlying cause for many peoples thyroid disorders. I am not quite sure how factual this information is, or how it might relate to many of you, but it might prove worthwhile to read and get tested.

Title: Herbal Medicines for Thyroid Disorders

The 3 viruses/infections he discusses are:

1- Epstein-Barr

2- H. Pylori

3- Yersinia Enterocolitica
