Why is Hypothyroidism Growing at Epidemic Proportions?

September 24th, 2009

“Never in the history of modern medicine has there been an epidemic of such proportion that has gone unrecognized,” begins the Introduction of Hypothyroidism Type 2 by Dr. Mark Starr, M.D. “Proper recognition and treatment of hypothyroidism would prevent much of our illness and suffering. Many millions of lives can be changed for the better [...]

Why Are Thyroid Lab Tests Inadequate?

September 23rd, 2009

Dr. Mark Starr’s Hypothyroidism Type 2 is quite the eye opener. This book is a “must-read” for every medical practitioner today. The following statement in his Introduction is an excellent summarization of the content, evidence, and research he so aptly provides in the ensuing pages: “This book is a compilation of the overwhelming evidence that [...]

September 22nd, 2009

Chances are, you may be one of the thousands of people walking around with undiagnosed hypothyroidism, and you don’t even know it. Why?

Not Over the Shock of My Recent Lab Bill…

September 3rd, 2009

I have to admit that “complete unadulterated rape” is the thought that ran through my mind when I opened my bill from a commercial lab for blood tests that I recently had drawn.

What is "Within Normal Limits"?

April 24th, 2009

In gathering the stories for my upcoming book, The Awakened Body, I asked a nurse friend of mine if she would be willing to share her story, to which she responded:    “I wish I could send you a success story regarding hormones . . . but it seems as if mine are ‘UNRULY’! Perhaps [...]

The Search for Truth

April 22nd, 2009

Last night I went to bed totally baffled and saddened. I had paused my manuscript editing process in a quest for more information concerning hypothyroidism (which manifests many of the same symptoms as the imbalance of the sex hormones) and thyroid blood testing.
