When I researched mitochondrial disorders and thyroid, I realized they were one in the same. The last landmark book written about hypothyroidism was by Dr. Broda Barnes in 1976. I hope my book will allow me to help doctors and patients get back in touch with this basic tenet of medicine. Without this knowledge, patients go from office to office, searching for answers and too often getting just superficial treatment of symptoms." --Dr. Starr www.21centurymed.com
