Thyroid disease is called "gall disease" in traditional Chinese medicine and is a type of emotional disease. When people persist in negative emotions, thyroid disease may be induced, and even thyroid cancer may occur.
Emotional stability and mental health can help people achieve better physical and mental balance and reduce the risk of cancer. There is no clear scientific evidence of a direct cause-and-effect relationship between emotions and stress and thyroid cancer, but stress and emotional problems are often considered as possible risk factors and included in prevention measures.
