3.0 out of 5 stars Informative, but..., March 27, 2007
By RML (NC, USA) - See all my reviews
I found an error in this book which makes me a little nervous about it's editing if not the entire content. On one page it specifically says that bugleweed is NOT indicated for hyperthyroidism when in fact it is one of the FEW alternative remedies that works for hyper's versus hypo's. I bought this book because of the lack of coverage for people with hyperactive thyroid so this was very annoying.

Other than that, most of this info is available on the internet free of charge.

2.0 out of 5 stars Promises, promises....., August 3, 2006
Same old information that is available everywhere, and a lot more on HypOthyroidism than I expected to encounter. The title seems to promise some hints for the often troublesome aspects of the disease, perhaps information the author might have gleaned from patients who had learned to cope. Unfortunately this promise is not fulfilled. I learned nothing new, and most of the areas of interest to me did not offer any solutions to "living well." A waste of $.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent guide for Graves Disease, January 15, 2006
A very well researched and up to date guide for Graves diesase. Also includes what happens after treatment - which is rarely if ever discussed in other books. If you or a loved one has been diagnosised with Graves, this is the book you need.
