Thriving with Hypothyroidism: The Holistic Guide to Losing Weight, Keeping It Off, and Living a Vibrant Life
by Susan Tucker Anna AustinThriving with Hypothyroidism is an empowering guide for women to lose weight, keep it off, and live a vibrant life despite having hypothyroidism. Women with hypothyroidism often feel like the disease is hijacking their life, sabotaging their efforts to lose weight, keep it off and preventing them from living an energy-filled life. Many women with hypothyroidism have been told that “Your thyroid test came back in the normal range!” or “The dose of thyroid hormone you are on is perfect!” yet they still feel hypothyroid symptoms. Or maybe they’ve been told, “Your weight gain is not due to your thyroid. Maybe you’re eating too much and not getting enough exercise!” It sounds all too familiar, and it’s a vicious cycle! After Anna Austin was diagnosed with hypothyroidism at such a young age, Susan Tucker did everything she could for her daughter to get to the root cause of the symptoms Anna was experiencing, even after starting medication. Thriving with Hypothyroidism is about empowering women to take an active role in their health in stopping the progression of thyroid disease and not settling living with symptoms for the rest of their lives. Susan and Anna help people understand that there’s more to preventing hypothyroidism than just taking medication. Rather, women can improve symptoms and thyroid function through a more natural, whole-body approach. Thriving with Hypothyroidism comes from 20 years of research, personal experience, and education in getting to the root causes of Susan and Anna’s own hypothyroidism. Susan and Anna share how to stop the progression of thyroid disease, lose weight and keep it off, and have a more energetic life!
Through a Glass Lightly: Confession of a Reluctant Water Drinker
by Thomas Tylston GregThe love of drinking was well-developed in the nineteenth-century Englishman. With chapters on port, claret, sherry, champagne, Burgundy, Madeira, wine cellars, glasses and butlers, Through a Glass Lightly is a love letter to wine and everything that came with it. But the passionate tale has a sorry ending: in the final two chapters, the author develops gout and has to become a teetotaller in order to be able to take out life insurance.The books in "Found on the Shelves" have been chosen to give a fascinating insight into the treasures that can be found while browsing in The London Library. Now celebrating its 175th anniversary, with over seventeen miles of shelving and more than a million books, The London Library has become an unrivalled archive of the modes, manners and thoughts of each generation which has helped to form it.From essays on dieting in the 1860s to instructions for gentlewomen on trout-fishing, from advice on the ill health caused by the "modern" craze of bicycling to travelogues from Norway, they are as readable and relevant today as they were more than a century ago.

The Thyroid Diet
by Mary J. ShomonFrom patient advocate Mary Shomon, author of Living Well With Hypothyroidism, here is the first book to tackle the weight factors specific to thyroid patients and detail a conventional and alternative plan for lasting weight loss.An estimated 10 million Americans have been diagnosed with thyroid disease--most of them women--and for the majority of them, losing weight is mentioned time and time again as a primary concern and chief frustration--a challenge made more difficult due to the metabolic slowdown of a malfunctioning thyroid gland. For these thyroid patients, treatment alone doesn't seem to resolve weight problems. Further, they may struggle with raising basic metabolism, resolving underlying nutritional deficiencies, treating depression and correcting brain chemistry imbalances, reducing stress, and combating insulin resistance.The Thyroid Diet will identify these factors that inhibit a thyroid patient's ability to lose weight, and offer solutions--both conventional and alternative--to help. It will discuss optimal dietary changes, including how a thyroid sufferer should focus on a low-glycemic, high-fibre, low-calorie diet, eaten as smaller, more frequent meals to balance blood sugar. The Thyroid Diet addresses the use of various herbs, nutritional supplements, and prescription weight loss drugs, outlining the necessity of exercise, and drawing together all information into an integrated diet and exercise plan. It contains several different eating plans, food lists, and a set of delicious and healthy gourmet recipes. With handy worksheets to use in weight loss tracking, and a special resource section featuring websites, books, and support groups, here is vital help for the millions of thyroid patients dealing with weight problems.Mary Shomon has been praised by doctors around the country for her medical knowledge and sensitivity to patients' needs. She will be receiving similar blurbs for this new book. There are no other books on controlling your weight problems if you have a thyroid condition, yet over 40% of overweight people have evidence of a thyroid condition, and the weight loss problems facing them are unique and need a specific approach.
