Hypothyroidism: The Unsuspected Illness, Broda Barnes, M.D.
Of all the problems that can affect the physical or mental health, none is more common than thyroid gland disturbance. No problem is more readily and inexpensively treated, and yet none is more often left untreated, and even unsuspected.
“Hypothyroidism, low thyroid function, is one of the gland disturbances that many people suffer from without even realizing it. It can be the cause of low energy or constant fatigue that is of the most common complaints brought to doctors. It may be responsible for chronic headaches, repeated infections, unyielding skin problems, or circulatory difficulties. Even more frightening, it can be a major factor in heart disease, lung cancer, and emphysema. And it is responsible for many emotional and mental disturbances”.

John Lee is the author of a number of books on female issues. He is now retired, and spends his time teaching professionals and lay audiences about hormone balance and health.
“Premenopausal symptoms, endometriosis, weight gain, low sex drive, fibrocystic breast, heart disease, and osteoporosis; most women will experience these or other hormone-related problems. Today, millions of women concerned about aging must decide whether or not to undergo synthetic hormone replacement therapy, and suffer its side effects and increase risks of cancer”.
“John Lee brings you lifesaving facts that even your doctor may not know about, Premarin, Prover, and other HRT drugs; gives you an easy –to-follow nonprescription ‘Hormone Balance’ program; and tells you how to stay energized, strong, sexually vigorous, and free from ‘female problems’ before menopause, during the menopausal years, and beyond”.
Guess What Came to Dinner: Parasites and Your Health, Ann Louise Gittleman

By reading Guess What Came to Dinner, you’ll be taking an important first step in defending yourself, and your loved ones.

Alternative Medicine: The Definitive Guide, Burton Goldberg Group
This book has everything you need to know about effective therapies and affordable treatments for you and your family. It is an invaluable resource. Publications are also available for specific conditions; The Definitive Guide to Cancer, The Definitive Guide to Menopause, Hypothyroidism, Candida, etc. Unfortunately, I believe that this group is no longer together, however, their books are available in any librar, or online through Amazon or any number of other bookstores.
“Responding to a growing consumer demand for alternatives to conventional medicine, Future Medicine Publishing was created to help alleviate the present medical crisis by informing the public of effective and affordable alternatives in health care and promoting freedom of choice in medicine. This work is the result of a global effort spanning four years, a two million dollar budget, and involving over 400 leading alternative health professionals.

Natural Treatments for ADD and Hyperactivity, Skye Weintraub, N.D.
I read somewhere that a headache is not due to a deficiency in Aspirin. I believe the same analogy can relate to ADD/ADHD, and Ritalin. Professionals again are proving what affect a healthy lifestyle, diet, and the correct nutrients can have on yet another ‘disorder’, and the life of a person suffering from it.
“Dr. Weintraub’s latest natural health guide focuses on how to overcome the related behavioral problems of ADD and hyperactivity. Her expertise points to the many causes of these disorders, including nutritional, environmental, and physiological factors. She outlines how and why these problems are often misdiagnosed. Further Dr. Weintraub gives specific, technical information pertinent to the causes, symptoms, and natural treatments of ADD and hyperactivity, as well as a guideline for parents and teacher to follow when dealing with children afflicted with these symptoms”.
Radical Healing, Rudolph Ballentine, M.D.
Rudolph Ballentine has written the now classic work, Diet and Nutrition. He is a Physician, Psychiatrist, herbalist, Ayurvedic practitioner, Homeopath, and teacher. He created and directs the Center for Holistic Medicine in New York City.
“Radical Healing harnesses nature’s medicinal plants and other natural substances, with common sense essentials such as diet, exercise, and cleansing, as well as the most profound principles of spiritual and psychological transformation. In Dr. Ballentine’s synthesis, illness is an opportunity for growth that can go far beyond recover. Through radical healing old habits and attitudes that supported the development of disease fall away, to be replace by the clarity that comes with a whole new way of being in the world”. And who wouldn’t want that. Love it!

This is an up-to-date reference providing drug-free remedies for over three hundred ailments and disorders.

NOTE: I do not support the notion of having anyone stop any medication or medical treatment without discussing this with their doctor, MD, DO, Psychiatrist, etc. These pages of my website are meant to be informative, and provide clients with options and choices they may not have known about. The information found within is not meant to diagnose, treat, or propose any type of replacement for general medical care. It is my personal belief and experience that orthodox medicine as well as complementary therapies can and need to coexist to best help clients work through both acute and chronic health issues, as well as be involved in setting up preventative programs.
