| Thyroid Success Stories |
I just thought I would write to you and let you know that since I wrote
you last spring, I have lost 20 pounds and hope I never find it again. I
was struggling with, adding more and more exercize to my weigh loss plan
and cutting out protiens and getting no where. Your advice column lead me
to "40-30-30 Fat Burning Nutrition" along with your other helpful advice.
It was the answer I was needing for so long. It seems so easy now to live
with my thyroid problem, next best thing to not treating it anymore.
Monthly In-Depth Thyroid News Report
I am taking .175 mg of synthroid, is there any hope of never having to
take drugs to control my thyroid? I keep thinking that maybe someday my
body will figure it out, maybe certain foods or suppliments could help.
Thanks
Debbie

patient-oriented advice on how to find the right doctor to diagnose and treat various forms of
hypothyroidism, the drugs for hypothyroidism you and your doctor may not know about, fertility
and successful pregnancy with hypothyroidism, alternative therapies for hypothyroidism and its

much more. It's a complete manual of living well for anyone with hypothyroidism, whether due
to congenital hypothyroidism, thyroid surgery, radiation, or autoimmune disease.

book is coming out. You can also find out more information, read the book's table of contents, and get information on how to order in advance
