Depressed, overworked, or just feelin' old are common enough complaints But when disparate symptoms such as joint pain, weight gain, and foggy-headedness join the ranks, it's time to think thyroid As the "throttle" for the body's energy hormones, the thyroid affects every organ and cell; when it's in trouble, any variety of ailments--physical and mental--can occur. Trouble is, physicians are more likely to treat each symptom independently, with pill upon pill, rather than search for a root cause. Bolstered by 25 years of treating patients with low thyroid condition, husband-and-wife team Richard L. Shames, M.D., and Karilee H. Shames, R.N., Ph.D., ably explain the physical and emotional profiles of those diagnosed with the disease, why the proverbial deck is stacked against them, and how each patient can forge an effective path of treatment.

"Consider Thyroid Power a long, personal visit with a caring, prevention-oriented practitioner," state the authors. The journey begins with thyroid basics: how this little hormone-producing tissue operates, signs that things are amiss, how other illnesses compound the problem, and how to determine one's risk for hypothyroidism. Next, the Shameses discuss the labyrinth of diagnostic and treatment issues a patient must endure. Helpful and harmful supplements and environmental factors, repairing the immune system (the origin of thyroid troubles), and a rich, sensitive exploration of holistic healing nicely round out this valuable resource. A brief section titled "Show This to Your Doctor," penned by Richard, perfectly crystallizes the book and provides an effective tool for initiating a patient/physician dialogue. --Liane Thomas.

The old Yiddish proverb, “We plan, God laughs,” expresses a truth everyone can relate to. At every stage of life we make plans, setting out where we want to go and imagining what we will be like when we have “arrived.” But things have a way of turning out not quite as we hoped or expected.

In WE PLAN, GOD LAUGHS, Sherre Hirsch argues that too often our plans are limited to ones we think up at bedtime, or are devised by our parents, or by what looks good on a résumé. Addressing serious spiritual issues, Hirsch takes readers through ten basics steps for formulating a plan that reflects who we are now and who we want to be—a plan that is alive, organic, and in sync with God.

Hirsch teaches the importance of letting go and recognizing that even the most ordinary life is extraordinary in the eyes of God. She makes no foolish promise that life will turn out as we plan, but shows that with hope, faith, and belief, we can change our lives for the better and make a positive difference in the lives of others.

In her revolutionary weight loss program, Ann Kulze, M.D., demystifies the nutritional science that leads to sustainable weight loss and good health. Unlike fad diets or lose-weight-quick schemes, the 10-Step Diet prides itself on taking the entirety of your wellness into account. It goes beyond teaching you what to eat: it teaches you why you should eat certain foods and avoid others.

The 10-Step Diet is not "low carb," "high protein," "low cal," or "low fat." Instead, it is a new way of eating and living that results in permanent weight loss and dramatic improvement in overall health and wellness. Best of all, it's surprisingly simple, and the results are permanent because the plan is realistic, flexible, and comprehensive.

In the 10-Step Diet, Dr. Ann reveals the benefits of the right fats, the right proteins, the right carbohydrates. She teaches you not only what to eat, but also how to live: what to buy at the grocery store and what to avoid, how to prepare your meals at home, and how to dine out without sacrificing your health and weight. Dr. Ann outlines the almost drug-like properties of some of the most powerful foods science knows and how they—along with lifestyle modifications—can prevent the ten most common diseases affected by nutrition. Most important, she offers the scientific reasoning behind her recommendations, so you can fully understand your body and how your nutritional choices affect the way you look and feel.

It's time to throw out the idea that dieting means eating strange foods or depriving yourself of great tastes, and start enjoying what you eat—not merely for the taste, but also for the proven nourishment the right foods offer. Whether you have 10 pounds to lose or 100, Dr. Ann's 10-Step Diet will help you look good, feel great, and stay well..
