  • Research shows that stress not only contributes to the onset of autoimmune disorders but also worsens the disease once it develops, creating a harmful cycle for patients.

@reumalho Deve ser o Gabor Maté. Uma pena que ele faça uma relacão de causalidade mágica, porque de fato estresse e/ou trauma são fatores de risco (desregulação HPA, resistência do sistema imune ao hipercortisolismo, neuroinflamação e blablabla). https://t.co/KaaObcf3FE

@MoonsHarvest @kswallowtarot I hear you. So sorry you went though that. Was it autoimmune? Stress is a major trigger for autoimmunity. (Research on Graves' disease, an autoimmune thyroid disease, included.) https://t.co/9WLKN6PNHA https://t.co/V8bgpCxxsj https://t.co/mj43qVUEma

@PhilipLacombe @philippe_geenen @rvdwalle Mijn punt blijft dat als je met isolatiemaatregelen (effect op immuunsysteem) enkele tienduizenden gezinnen in de armoede duwt je onmiddellijk 5 levensjaren per kind verliest, terwijl een covid-dode gemiddeld 1j. ouder is mogen worden. https://t.co/UuUpOoxfWc https://t.co/d4mKb9LA3b
