Hello and welcome to the week’s curated list of top health tweets! We take a close look at various aspects of chronic illness, and touch on the topics of antibiotics, social media and OCD. There is some interesting research on how childhood trauma can permanently alter genes to cause chronic illness. Samsung has been accused of poisoning its workers, which has led to deaths and lifelong illnesses. There’s also great insight into communication, dating and intimacy while living with a chronic illness. Oh and also two quotes by Anthony Hopkins and Eric Thomas as small food for thought.
I hope you enjoy reading these tweets, or learn something useful from them! If you have any comments, feel free to leave one below. Thanks and have a great week ahead! 🙂
