Thyroid Problems in Women and Children by Joan Gomez
This is a good purchase. It will help to identify strategies
aimed at keeping the thyroid healthy and intact. The use of
clean water, dairy, lean meat, fish (iodine content) are
important in maintaining overall thyroid health into the future.
Chronic overeating, eating too little and feeling cold all the
time are classic events which aggravate the thyroid and lead
to intractable problems. In addition, the book advises to
use salt sparingly and to stop using red food dyes.
Underactive thyroid inducers are cabbage, peanuts, mustard seed,
sweet corn, soy and milk from cows. Certain medicinal
preparations induce thyroid strain; namely, heparin,
diazepam, beta blockers, aspirin , steroids and sulfonamides.
Breathing problems may be aggravated by an over-active thyroid.
Stress, trauma, surgery, burns, radiation, bereavement and
personal illness-all place added burdens on the thyroid.
This book is a worthy purchase for consumers interested
in maintaining thyroid health.
