Dr. Christiansons's Thyroid Book
Dr. Alan Christianson is a Naturopathic Medical Doctor practicing in Scottsdale, Arizona. His focus in writing has been on thyroid disease.
"So many people have symptoms and health problems related to thyroid disease, but the conventional diagnostic model only starts treatment when disease has been present for years. Unexplained weight gain, fatigue, hair loss, depression - these can all be from an under-active thyroid. There is also a large number of people who have been diagnosed already and are on treatment but still getting some of their hypothyroid symptoms. On the alternative side, many authors promote thyroid treatment, at dangerously high doses for nearly anyone.
Our book is really unique in that it explains both the conventional and the alternative view. I'm trained in both and understand the strengths and weaknesses of each. You'll find it engaging and not overly technical, while not being condescending and still giving complete data on all aspects of thyroid disease. My co-author is a seasoned writer and knows first hand how dramatically thyroid issues can effect us and how much contradictory information patients are exposed to."
