Women represent up to 80% of autoimmune diagnoses. Research increasingly points to chronic stress and immune dysregulation as key contributors. At Global Health, we use epigenetic testing, adrenal support strategies, and personalised lifestyle medicine to help manage symptoms and address root contributors.
Many people experiencing low mood, anxiety, fatigue, or brain fog assume it’s simply stress or burnout. However, an underactive thyroid can significantly affect how your brain produces and uses energy — influencing mood, cognition, and emotional resilience. While thyroid medication is often essential, optimal recovery involves more than hormone replacement alone. Supporting brain energy through targeted nutrition, blood sugar stability, sleep, stress regulation, and gut health plays a critical role in helping patients feel like themselves again. A comprehensive approach to thyroid health addresses not just laboratory values, but overall mental clarity, mood stability, and long-term wellbeing.
Struggling with sleep and thyroid fatigue? Up to 80% of thyroid patients have sleep issues — but the solution isn’t more hours in bed. Learn how improving sleep quality can support thyroid function by up to 22%.

Could the very blueprint of life be interacting with the invisible energy fields around us? Emerging research suggests that DNA may behave like a fractal antenna, capable of absorbing and responding to electromagnetic fields (EMF). As everyday exposure to EMF increases through mobile phones, Wi-Fi, and power lines, scientists are exploring what this interaction could mean for human health. Studies have raised questions about whether prolonged EMF exposure may influence DNA integrity, cellular stress responses, and long-term disease risk. Understanding how electromagnetic energy interacts with biological systems is becoming increasingly important in a world where wireless technology is everywhere.
Chronic stress can leave the body feeling depleted, overwhelmed, and slow to recover. Often described as adrenal fatigue, stress-related exhaustion, or chronic fatigue, these experiences reflect a nervous system under prolonged pressure. Restoring balance is not about quick fixes, but about gently reducing stress load, supporting daily rhythms, and creating conditions that allow the body to recover. Through thoughtful lifestyle changes, nutrition, and appropriate professional support, it is possible to rebuild resilience and improve long-term wellbeing.
Ongoing stress can place significant strain on the body’s adrenal system, affecting energy levels, sleep, mood, and stress tolerance. While there is no single solution, supportive lifestyle strategies play a key role in restoring balance and resilience. This article outlines practical, evidence-informed approaches—including stress management, gentle movement, nutrition, and sleep habits—to help reduce stress load and support adrenal health in a sustainable way.
Maintaining stable blood sugar is one of the most effective ways to support steady energy, clearer thinking, and balanced mood throughout the day. By focusing on whole foods rich in fibre, lean proteins, and healthy fats—and reducing sugary and highly processed choices—we can avoid the highs and lows that impact both our bodies and our emotional wellbeing. This article explores the key foods and simple meal strategies that help keep blood sugar steady and mood more stable, supporting overall health and daily resilience.
