Book Review: Hypothyroidism Type 2: The Epidemic
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent book. Very informative. A must read for those diagnosed with hypothyroidism or suspect they have the disease/symptoms.Book Review: An Interesting Almost Alternative View Towards Medicine
Summary: 4 Stars
Dr. Mark Starr's Hypothyroidism Type 2 The Epidemic is a thesis about the existence of Hypothyroidism Type 2.
It seems that Dr. Starr's thesis stems from general medicine's neglect to measure the basal body temperature. Had the basal body temperature continue to be used in general medicine this book probably wouldn't have been made. Dr. Starr believes that the basal temperature is the most accurate measure to determine hypothyroidism. Since most doctors do not measure basal temperature, hypothyroidism is usually overlooked.
Dr. Starr uses the term Type 2 because this version of hypothyroidism cannot be blood tested. Type 1 can be blood tested. Someone suffering from Type 2 may have normal blood results. Again, it seems that the only way to test for Type 2 is to measure basal temperature.
Dr. Starr seems to believe that many diseases afflicting the general population is the result of hypothyroidism Type 2 including heart disease and fibromyalgia.
This is book is not without problems. The middle of the book seems a little long. There was one chapter that lost me. Despite these, the book is still pretty good.
I would recommend this book people interested in alternative medicine. It is funny to say this because it really wasn't alternative to begin with but over time it became practically alternative because general medicine forgot all about it. Dr. Starr's thesis is pretty compelling and may answer some of the diseases that general medicine cannot fix.
