I read in the news today that weight loss jabs eg. Livaglutide are to be offered on apps without the need to visit a doctor. I remembered reading that Thyroid Cancer could be a possible side effect and in trying to read more about how thyroid hormones were involved came across the following research paper which I found interesting and thought I would share. It mentions Thyroid Hormones significant effect on lipid metabolism and that sub clinical hypo was found to be associated with non alcoholic fatty liver disease.
