Nature

Endocrine gland disorders are most often the result of a gland producing too much or too little hormone.

Background

Endocrine glands are different from other organs in the body because they release hormones directly into the bloodstream. Hormones are powerful chemicals controlling and instructing the functions of various organs. Hormones are produced by several glands and organs such as the ovaries, testes, thyroid, pancreas, pituitary, liver and others. They travel through the bloodstream from where they are produced to where they interact with receptors to do the work for which they were intended. Hormones regulate fluid retention, mineral metabolism, sexual function and libido, reproductive functions, growth and development, aging and numerous other functions. They initiate reactions in the body (whereas enzymes usually help to facilitate them).

Incidence

Spike proteins from COVID-19 infection and the vaccines can damage endocrine glands, including pituitary, thyroid and adrenal glands, as well as reproductive organs and many more.

Claim

Gland disorders represent a critical and often overlooked health crisis that affects millions worldwide. These conditions, ranging from thyroid dysfunction to adrenal imbalances, can lead to severe physical and mental health issues, disrupting lives and diminishing quality of life. Early detection and treatment are essential, yet awareness remains alarmingly low. It is imperative that we prioritize research, education, and healthcare access to combat these disorders, ensuring that individuals receive the care they desperately need.

Counter-claim

Gland disorders are often overstated and sensationalized, diverting attention from more pressing health issues. While they can affect a small percentage of the population, the vast majority of people lead healthy lives without ever encountering these problems. Focusing on gland disorders distracts from critical public health challenges like heart disease and mental health, which impact millions. It's time to prioritize real health concerns rather than exaggerating the significance of gland-related issues.
