September, 2002 -- Good metabolic health means you can handle stress, you're resistant to sickness and disease, you have physical vitality and mental vigor, with energy, stamina, and well-being to work, play, eat, and sleep with ease. But metabolic impairment and slowness -- such as seen with hypothyroidism, fibromyalgia, nutritional deficiencies, and other conditions -- can interfere with good health.

Fibromyalgia and metabolism experts Dr. Gina Honeyman-Lowe and Dr. John C. Lowe have developed a new guide for patients, Your Guide to Metabolic Health, which provides information for patients on how to overcome health problems caused by slow metabolism.

The book offers interesting and practical ideas on how to improve your metabolic health. The book is coming out this fall, and if is available at an advance purchase discount if you buy it before Oct. 1, 2002.
