From patient advocate Mary Shomon, author of Living Well With Hypothyroidism , here is the first book to tackle the weight factors specific to thyroid patients and detail a conventional and alternative plan for lasting weight loss.

Further, they may struggle with raising basic metabolism, resolving underlying nutritional deficiencies, treating depression and correcting brain chemistry imbalances, reducing stress, and combating insulin resistance. . o  The Thyroid Diet will identify these factors that inhibit a thyroid patient's ability to lose weight, and offer solutions--both conventional and alternative--to help. It will discuss optimal dietary changes, including how a thyroid sufferer should focus on a low-glycemic, high-fibre, low-calorie diet, eaten as smaller, more frequent meals to balance blood sugar.
