Denise Richards thanks fans after they point out enlarged thyroid

Denise Richards‘ health is improving thanks to her “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” fans.

The former fashion model revealed that after appearing in the “RHOBH” Season 9 reunion episode, viewers were quick to point out that Richards’ thyroid didn’t look quite right.

“A few of you pointed out after the #RHOBH reunion that my thyroid was enlarged,” she wrote on Instagram on Sunday. “You were right, it was something I ignored until pointed out.”

She added, “I thank all of you who sent me messages. #Selfcare”

The 48-year-old TV personality is now taking steps to take care of her thyroid issue, revealing that she has stopped eating gluten.

“It’s amazing to me in a short time eliminating gluten from my diet how much my thyroid has changed,” she wrote, adding, “I had no idea how much our diet really can affect our body and for me how toxic gluten really is.”
