Researchers identified five traditional herbs that may target a key immune process involved in obesity-related Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. Through computational analysis, the research team found that these herbs may act by regulating efferocytosis, a process where immune cells clear dying or dead cells from the body. The study highlighted the potential therapeutic effects of these herbs in managing obesity-linked autoimmune thyroid disease, emphasizing the need for further experimental and clinical trials.
