The disease causes a certain type of antibody to attach itself to cells in the thyroid. In layman&#8217;s terms, Grave&#8217;s Disease causes too much &#8216;thyroxin&#8217;, a hormone produced by the thyroid gland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Causes and Risk Factors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The disease is said to be five times more common in women than in men. It occurs most frequently between ages 20 and 40. Risk factors include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Genetics (family history)<\/li><li>Gender<\/li><li>Age<\/li><li>Other autoimmune disorders<\/li><li>Emotional stress<\/li><li>Physical stress<\/li><li>Pregnancy<\/li><li>Smoking cigarettes<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Symptoms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Typical signs of Grave&#8217;s disease include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>nervousness<\/li><li>a fine tremor of the hands<\/li><li>weight loss<\/li><li>fatigue<\/li><li>breathlessness<\/li><li>palpitations<\/li><li>heat intolerance<\/li><li>increased metabolic rate, and<\/li><li>gatro-intestinal motility<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There may be an enlarged thymus, generalized hyperplasia of the lymph nodes, blurred or double vision, localized <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/wellness-prevention\/edema-and-swelling-problems\/\">edema<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/featured-articles\/osteoporosis\/\">osteoporosis<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Natural Healing Solutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All light-blue colored stones can also prove beneficial in healing from Grave&#8217;s Disease.
