Synopsis

A comprehensive, easy-to-follow guide to curing America's most persistent energy crisis: low thyroid, Thyroid Power presents a ten-step program to conquer this energy-sapping illness.

Low thyroid is one of the most misdiagnosed medical disorders, manifesting itself with a wide array of symptoms--from weight gain and chronic fatigue to severe depression and infertility--that are often dismissed or attributed to other conditions. A doctor-nurse team, the Shames present a proven holistic approach which first helps readers determine if they suffer from low thyroid and then reveals common environmental and emotional triggers as well as the foods, vitamins and natural remedies that strengthen the thyroid.

The authors also reveal the connection between low thyroid and autoimmune disease and explain the best standard and alternative treatments, suggesting ways to work with health practitioners. By illuminating and simplifying a complex dysfunction that is all too common, this valuable book will help readers live a life of optimal energy and hormonal balance.
