Reviews of the first edition include:
‘Patients and doctors alike will profit immediately from this extraordinary book on hormones and health by a grand champion of alternative medicine. Dr Durrant-Peatfield covers this crucial subject completely and with perfect clarity – and he does so in his delightfully flamboyant style.’
‘Dr Barry Durrant-Peatfield brings his trademark patient-oriented sensibility and passion for quality care to this innovative discussion of thyroid disease.’
‘This book is an absolute must read’
‘My strong recommendation, whatever your thyroid problem, is to send for a copy of Dr Durrant-Peatfield’s book.’
New for the second edition:
Thyroid problems, especially thyroid underactivity, are on the increase but notoriously difficult to diagnose. Many sufferers have years of treatment for their symptoms rather than for the underlying problem.
In this fully revised and updated second edition of Dr Durrant-Peatfield’s acclaimed book you will learn how to recognize thyroid problems in yourself and how to take an active part in your own treatment.

"Dr. Barry Durrant-Peatfield is Patron and Medical Adviser to Thyroid Patient Advocacy-UK (TPA-UK) www.tpa-uk.org.uk. TPA-UK feel the current situation, whereby hypothyroid patients are being left to self-diagnose, self-treat, and self-monitor due to a lack of understanding of the disorder by NHS doctors, is unacceptable. TPA-UK is fighting to remedy this. Our aims are to persuade the medical profession to rethink their protocol of diagnosis, management and treatment of hypothyroidism, to raise awareness of treatment options, and to provide educational and emotional support to patients and their families"
