Are You Tired, Overweight and Puffy-Eyed–and Frustrated About It?
August 29th, 2009Book Reviews 2 CommentsDo you have puffy eyes?
Are you tired a LOT?
Do you have root canals?
Had your gall bladder removed?
Is your memory disappearing?
Constant or increasing aches & pains?
Hair thinning?
These are only a few symptoms of a problem which is burgeoning across the world, and which is the subject of a revolutionary book I just read:
Hypothyroidism Type 2: the Epidemic, by Dr. Mark Starr.
Why do I think this is important enough to review? Because after speaking with the author and reading his book, I could easily see–just by looking around!–that there are far more people affected by this problem than you would think.
It’s ubiquitous and pernicious. I copied some items from his website, 21CenturyMed.com at the bottom of this article, including some of the symptoms. See if you resonate with any of it. Listen to my interview with him, too–it’s an eyeopener, HERE.
CAUTION! Dr. Starr says that the majority of doctors don’t test for it right. They use blood tests, whereas other tests are needed that are more effective.
See if you can find a doc who understands that before you go running off for help, whether to your health food store or natural healer. More is at stake here than you can imagine..
I thought you’d be interested in seeing some before and after treatment photos of people who were treated for hypothyroidism. It’s pretty radical.
Here’s what Dr. Starr says on the page of his site where these photos are displayed HERE. (And there are many more even more shocking photo in his book–you won’t hardly believe they are the same people!)
“These before & after photos were published in the early 1900s by Dr. E. Hertoghe. It was not uncommon for doctors of his day to document their patients’ illnesses and treatment with photographs.
“The photographs show how the patients’ appearance dramatically changed after treatment with natural thyroid hormone.
“Notice how treatment resolved the puffy face, the puffy eyes, the thinning hair, and even improved demeanor and posture. The lips naturally turn up after treatment.
“However, the pictures cannot demonstrate some of hypothyroidism’s damage, such as children born to hypothyroid mothers who have lower IQs, arrested sexual development, short attention spans, constipation, laxity of the ligaments, etc.
“Today, we have an altered gene pool. Now many people need higher levels of thyroid hormone to stimulate the defective and polluted cells into normal activity. The good news is, desiccated thyroid is a natural, inexpensive solution. The bad news is, most doctors are working with misleading blood tests and synthetic thyroid.”
Listen to my interview with Dr. Starr HERE to find out more about how incorrect testing methods throw out the diagnosis and treatments people get, and which eventually do no good at all.
