Product Description:


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.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hypothyroidism: The Unsuspecteded Illness
I bought 2 copies one for myself. One for my doctor. My Doctor said that many Doctors do not pay attention to Hypothyroidism. He said he would read it & he was glad to receive it. Myself it pointed me to a Iodine Therapy for better health



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Medical Classic from a Medical Giant which Still Rings True
Hypothyroidism the Unsuspected Illness, by Broda Barnes MD, is a medical classic and should be required reading for every medical student and doctor. I have read the book many times. The book contains the condensed wisdom of a lifetime of research and clinical experience with the thyroid, and it rings true today as it did in 1976. Thyroid blood tests come and go, yet human physiology remains the same.

Broda Barnes estimated that up to 40% of the population suffers from a low thyroid ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hypothyroidism: The Unsuspected Killer
This book was extremely informative about a disease that is rampant in our country that the medical profession overlooks. We can be healthy with a small dose of medication to make a huge change in the way we feel.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - EXCELLENT
I wish all physicians would read this book!!!

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Hypothyroidism
This book is outdated and has no depth for todays lifestyle issues of which hypothyroidism is an underlying cause of many of our health problems.
Not enough emphasis on iodine and its role in supporting thyroid and emphasises too much on the medical answer with thyroxine. I was disappointed and would not have purchased the book had I saw the date of it. Anything written before 1998 and by a doctor is limited and narrow.
