Download or read book What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About(TM): Hypothyroidism written by Ken Blanchard and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking, proven approach for successfully diagnosing and treating the millions with hypothyroidism. Depression, weight gain, fatigue, headaches, memory lapses, hair loss—these are just some of the vague, often debilitating symptoms that plague the more than 13 million patients with hypothyroidism. The typical blood test for diagnosis is often inaccurate, leaving many to suffer through ineffective treatment. But now, there is a solution: Dr. Blanchard’s groundbreaking program draws on emerging research, medical facts, and three decades of clinical experiences as an endocrinologist. This individualized program uses questionnaires and charts to help diagnose sufferers through symptoms, not only lab results. It then treats patients of all ages with the safe but little used T3 hormone in combination with the more common T4 hormone. Also including specific nutritional advice and alternative treatments, this is the one program for sufferers of hypothyrodism that really works!
