Most informative guide I've ever read.
She presents alternative modes of healing as well as knowledge about the conflicts of interest of thyroid drug makers. One advice that I found especially useful was to quit coffee, and drink Yerba Mate instead. I carefully and slowly tapered down my coffee dosage, and then started drinking Yerba Mate tea. As a result, I immediately experienced well being that had eluded me since 1992. Also, I began to watch out for other foods, and discovered that I have many food intolerances. I've learned that there are more factors influencing my Hypothyroidism and my enlarged nodules than I thought. My latest TSH indicates that I am in the normal range, but my symptoms do not reflect such number. We need more patient advocates like Mary Shomon.

Great book
This book arrived, as promised, full of information that I had not read in other books covering thyroid disease. I have not finished it in it's entirety, however it is safe to say that I would highly recommend it to others suffering from this ailment. The subject is covered extremely well, from various perspectives, and leaves the thyroid patient feeling more in control of the disease, from having such a great heads up from many sources.
