Myers's plan is one of the most accessible, inspiring, and effective programs I have ever encountered. In THE THYROID CONNECTION, Dr. "Who doesn't want to eat delicious foods, have more energy, and feel their absolute best?

and them recommended an endocrinologist pcrodgers I purchased this book and there is SO much information that Dr. Amy Myers covers in this book. I have been struggling with thyroid issues for years and going to doctors that really had no idea how to treat my issues properly. All they did was check my TSH level, which was soring out of control, and change my medication back and forth from one stren. Useful! Elizabeta Bunch of useful information. The beginning of the book was a little repetitive and I couldn't wait to get to the core of the thyroid functioning. But now I finally understand how the thyroid works. I also like that there were a lot of advice for people with a lot of resources and for those who can't afford going all the way.. Book is a Godsend! If ever there was a more comprehensive map to navigate auto-immune thyroid this is it. Where our conventional Dr.'s have failed us, this book clearly gives us the tools to make positive changes in our lives. I'm most grateful for Dr. Myers for her insight, knowledge and help on our overall health.
