Summary:
Are you tired all the time no matter how much you rest? Have you been gradually putting on weight despite efforts to diet? Do you always feel cold? Is your hair thinning and/or your eyebrows disappearing? Do you catch every bug going around? Do even small injuries take an age to heal? Have you had tests for an underactive thyroid and been told all is well? Hypothyroidism is the obvious cause of these symptoms and now one of the most chronic conditions, yet it is also one of the worst treated in Western medicine. Why? Because today's doctor is trained only to treat blood tests not patients, even though patients may have all the classic signs and symptoms. In The Underactive Thyroid Dr Sarah Myhill and Craig Robinson show us what those signs and symptoms are, all stemming from the metabolism running slow, and what the problems with diagnostic blood tests are that mean they cannot be relied on in isolation. Advocating lifestyle measures, iodine and natural thyroid glandulars where found to be necessary, the authors also show us the consequences of untreated hyperthyroidism at every stage of life and why it is so important to take remedying the problem safely into your own hands if your doctor can't give you the support you need.
