Summary: The First Book You Should Read About Hypothyroidism
Comment: Although there are some weaknesses in this book, it is a must read for anyone diagnosed with Hypothyroidism and/or Hashimoto's disease. The book provides a much needed public service by alerting readers to the fact that the medical community lacks a clear understanding of Hypothyroidism and focuses only on treating the symptoms of this disease. It is written in clear, concise, layman's terms. The author does not have a medical background and therefore is able to make the discussion of the disease and his treatment easy to understand. There is also an excellent section on resources for obtaining additional information.
The primary weakness of the book is that it lacks depth. About 60 of the 136 pages are blank diary pages for tracking progress. The author discusses what he did to reverse Hashimoto's, but does not discuss alternatives that did not work or that he decided against trying. Also, Mr. Dirgo simultaneously treated the disease with different methods and can't isolate exactly what worked.
Despite the lack of scientific rigidity, the book is well worth the price. It provides valuable information you won't get from your doctor. Mr. Dirgo proves that the cause of the disease can be treated as well as the symptoms. This is a very important point, since the June 1, 2001 edition of the Wall Street Journal reported that Synthroid (the primary thyroid hormone replacement) has never been approved by the FDA and may be withdrawn from the market on August 15, 2001. I highly recommend this book as a starting point.

Summary: The Book That Will Lead You on the Road to a Healthier Life
Comment: I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease six years ago. With lots of fear, I started on a synthroid regimen and have remained on it; however, since diagnosis, I have gained 30 pounds and I am constantly tired.
One night, out of desperation, I searched Hashimoto's Disease over the internet and found Bob Dirgo's book. The title alone gave me hope! Thanks to Mary Dirgo's editing talents, this book is so easy to read. I studied how Hashimoto's effects my body and started applying Bob's methods to my own life. I feel amazing.
I love the personal health journal in the book and use it to track my progress. This is what helped me to get off of the sugar I was consuming. I am even enjoying "Protein Power" as recommended by Bob in the book. This is the first diet I have been able to stay on. I am so grateful for the author for sharing his story.
If you are suffering from Hashimoto's, this book is a must. It will enlighten you, give you peace and hope, and in the end, it will help your body to heal. Buying this book was the best investment I have made toward my health. I am getting off of synthroid and I am healing! and they said it couldn't be done.
While God is the ultimate healer, this book is a great tool to help you on your journey. Way to go Bob and thanks!!!!

Summary: Break Through Book!
Comment: This book by Robert T. Dirgo is an outstanding example of how the author resolved a serious medical problem through determined research and alternative medicine.
Dirgo was diagnosed with hashimoto's thyroiditis hypothyroidism, and advised to begin taking the prescription drug synthroid, which has been reported to be problematic and unsafe. According to the FDA, as reported in a June 1, 2001 article in the Wall Street Journal, synthroid has a "history of problems" and "cannot be recognized as safe and effective".
Dirgo opted to pursue a course of action incorporating extensive research to address and uncover the root cause of the problem, and then define the methods required to reverse the problem without drugs.
Through extensive research and under the direction of a homeopathic Medical Doctor, Dirgo discovered an alternative medicine approach that reversed his hashi's.
I consider Dirgo's recent publication a most informative book. This is must reading for anyone diagnosed with hashi's, for those seeking information on the subject, and for those seeking information relative to diet, exercise, and diet supplements.
This is a "break through" book, and is highly recommended.
