Women's Guide to Thyroid Health: Comprehensive Solutions for All Your Thyroid Symptoms - Softcover

"For years I suffered from exhaustion, depression, weight gain, and hair loss. I tried everything I could think of--diet, prayer, positive thinking--but I just kept getting worse. I was at the end of my rope. It wasn't until I spoke to Kathryn Simpson at her clinic that I came to understand all my symptoms were due to hypothyroidism and finally got help. I started on thyroid medication and have resolved all my symptoms."
--Betsy Covert, patient

"In her latest book, Kathryn Simpson has brought to us a wonderful, understandable approach to thyroid dysfunction. As a neurologist and sleep disorders specialist, I am impressed how little the medical community at large investigates this common set of disorders and even more impressed with how passive therapy usually is. With this book as a guide, anyone can easily understand thyroid-related symptoms, be empowered to undergo appropriate testing, and intelligently evaluate the response to replacement therapy."
--Victor Rosenfeld, MD, neurology department head at the Sansum Clinic in Santa Barbara, CA

"I was fortunate to have a doctor who implemented Kathryn Simpson's research in his practice. I had suffered with lupus for over five years, seeing specialist after specialist, with symptoms that were getting progressively worse. After going through the testing and evaluation program, it turned out that I had a serious thyroid deficiency as well as a parathyroid disorder. After both were treated, all my symptoms resolved and have been completely gone for over a year now. It's a miracle!"
--Regina Frazier, patient
