Of all the problems that can affect physical or mental health, none is more
common than thyroid gland disturbance. None is more readily and inexpensively
corrected. And none is more often untreated, and even unsuspected.
Hypothyroidism -- low thyroid function -- is one of the gland disturbances that
many people suffer from without even realizing it. It can be the cause of low
energy or constant fatigue that is one of the most common complaints brought to
doctors. It may be responsible for chronic headaches, repeated infections,
unyielding skin problems, or circulatory difficulties. Even more frightening,
it can be a major factor in heart disease, lung cancer, and emphysema. And it
is responsible for many emotional and mental disturbances. Hypothyroidism: The
Unsuspected Illness explains low thyroid function in easy, understandable
language. It tells how it may be affecting your health and your life.
Dr. Broda Barnes and Lawrence Galton tell what the thyroid gland is, how it
works, the problems its dysfunction can induce. They detail case histories of
patients, often thought hopeless, whose problems were discovered to be related
to hypothyroidism and were cured by Dr. Barnes´s simple effective techniques.
And they discuss whether you too may be hypothyroid, affected by a condition
even a physician may not recognize.
Included is a simple test you can make at home to discover if hypothyroidism
may be the real, previously unsuspected cause of your ill health.
If you know you are hypothyroid, Hypothyroidism: The Unsuspected Illness will
answer your questions about your condition. If you suspect you maybe, if you
are unsure what may be causing those chronic headaches, infections, fatigue and
low energy, it may help you find the answer.
