Thanks to her fans, Denise Richards is feeling better, says ExtraTV. Viewers watching the “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” noticed Denise’s thyroid looked enlarged. Richards shared on Instagram that a few fans pointed it out to her and they "were right." The 48-year-old said the problem has cleared up since she eliminated gluten from her diet. An enlarged thyroid is known as a goiter. Although harmless, goiters can be indicators of larger health issues.
