The Everything Guide to Hashimoto's Thyroiditis: A Healing Plan for Managing Symptoms Naturally (Everything® Series)

I've had thyroid issues my whole life. I wasn't diagnosed till I was in my teens and have struggled with the ups and downs ever since. Now that I've had 2 babies my hormones have been whacked out of control over the past couple years, regular pills and treatment aren't working for my body right now. I was now recently just diagnosed with hashimotos. Instead of freaking out about it I decided to research and start my journey on a path of wellness and self healing. This book is easy to read and understand!!! I love how the author divides up the information and explains it simple but to the point. The book has an eminence amount of research done for you and extra resources provided!!!! My doctor fully agreed with me by following a paleo LIFESTYLE change to help address hormonal issues! I feel inspired, informed and motivated after reading "the everything guide to Hashimoto's thyroiditis". This isn't the first book I have bought on healing, natural thyroid approach or general hormonal inquiry. BEST book I have read so far. My third time rereading it. My favourite part is 1/2 of it is recipes!!! You won't regret buying it! My 3rd time rereading it and my doctor asked for a copy herself she wants to read it so she can tell other clients about a different approach. Great job Mrs. McNew!

I am a nutritionist, and have been looking for a comprehensive, user-friendly book to recommend for my thyroid clients. Since this includes solid information laid out in a pleasant, easy to follow manner plus yummy recipes, it's a winner. Since the banner on the cover says "Includes 200 Paleo Recipes!" I think it's evident to potential buyers that this author (who has Hashi's herself and healed so successfully that she was able to conceive her healthy child) uses a whole-foods Paleo approach. In my professional experience, a Paleo diet is the safest and most nourishing plan for Hashi's, and this book explains how to eat Paleo healthfully. There is some general societal misunderstanding about how to eat Paleo. It is not all hunks of meat and bacon. There are loads of veggies and plants! Anyone needing a more strict auto-immmune Paleo (AIP) approach can simply remove the ingredients excluded on that plan from the recipes.

This book has good information for the newly diagnosed. Good explanations, easy to understand. Great reference to return to. Hashimoto's is complex. Food is a very important part of the disease. I would recommend this book.

Great book. Easy to read, informative and educational. A lot of yummy looking recipes are included as well. Great for all people new to this.

I just read The Everything Guide to Hashimoto's Thyroiditis this morning - up to the recipes. Even though this book is written primarily for those with Hashimoto's, there's really a lot of great information in here. First, for people with other types of autoimmune disorders like fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease and others, there's a lot of good information about autoimmune in addition to Hashimoto's. Second, Aimee really explains the Paleo diets (nutrional plans) really well - what it is, what it's not and some of the Paleo variations. She also takes Paleo eating & nutrition a couple steps further explaining a complete Paleo lifestyle - detoxifying your home, your medicine cabinet and your makeup & personal hygiene supplies. All in all, VERY educational for everyone - not just those interested in Hashimoto's. I can't wait to get into the recipes next weekend - I am sure that I'll find many to incorporate into our meal plans.

This book pushes the paleo diet. The author was very kind with her response to my review. I thank her for that professionalism. If I had known it was all about paleo I would not have purchased it because I don't believe paleo is particularly healthy in the long run. However, I think the title and cover are somewhat misleading.

2 for 2 recipes and I'm very much looking forward to making more. Easy and quick, which was a delightful surprise, and they both taste and feel good. Real food, real easy.

I suffer from Hashimoto's I've had it for over 20 years. This book did an excellent job of describing the disease and information you need to know to manage it. I've never had a doctor tell me what foods to eat and not eat.. I haven't had a doctor explain that all those crazy symptoms were not separate - like Anxiety and Depression and skin issues and weight gain and hair loss. Every doctor dealt with them separately. I thank Aimee for sharing this information. I would have given the book five stars if the recipes in the back were not Paleo but Paleo for Hashimoto and autoimmune disease. Also if other recipes that included dairy and eggs were going to be included the others that those with Hashimoto could eat should have been identified. The two week suggested eating plan was helpful except it didn't include the page numbers for the recipes. It took me two hours to go through the book to identify the recipe pages. I would definitely change those two aspects of the book. Other than the recipes and food plan I recommend this book for anyone who thinks they may have Hashimoto or who has been diagnosed with it.
