Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I'm a little hesitant to write this review because I haven't seen anyone else comment about the use of zinc for a thyroid problem. I received Anthony William's excellent book, Thyroid Healing, as a gift and had been on the diet for only about three or four days when my nurse practitioner called me in to the office for a blood draw. I can't take synthetic thyroid hormone, it makes me sick as a dog, so was kind of limited in my choices. The blood test results were incredible. My TSH (which should be very low) had dropped by six points and my thyroid hormones, T-3 and T-4, were in the normal range for the first time since I've been wrestling with this problem. I didn't think I had been on the Thyroid Healing diet long enough to make a difference, and then, duh, remembered I had been taking zinc for a little over a month. My nails had definitely improved in appearance, but the blood test amazed me. I know this is anecdotal and I don't want to give anyone false hope, but I had to pass this along on the off chance that it might help someone else.
