I knew going into this that this book would be primarily about hypothyroidism, since weight gain is a common issue for those suffering with hypo. With that in mind I didn't think I would get much out of this, but figured it wouldn't hurt to check it out. I could stand to lose a few pounds, but I don't need a diet. I was looking more for nutritional kinds of stuff that would be beneficial whether or not I'm hyperthyroid, hypothyroid, or without a thyroid issue at all. It's not a bad guide. There's...more
Misleading title. Lots of good information about various thyroid conditions and how to go about getting a diagnosis... but very little in the way of diet advice beyond 'find out what works for you, everyone's different' generalities. Good information, but not the best book on thyroid and it certainly doesn't live up to its title.
The first third of this book is essential reading for anyone with hypothyroidism. Shomon goes in depth with why the thyroid stops working, how to get diagnosed, and what medications you should be on. I've been hypothyroid since 2005, and I had new questions to ask my endocrinologist, and it sparked some good discussion. The rest of the book I felt didn't really apply to me since I only need to lose 10-15 pounds and it was geared more toward people needing to lose a lot of weight. I'd like to hea...more
I have hypothyroidism and when I came across this book I borrowed it from the library as it is a bit dated, 2004, and I was concerned about that. The author has since written other books relating to this same disease. Two of them I also plan on borrowing from the library. I will decide then, which one to buy, if not all. I have learned a lot, and this book will make a great reference book. Saying that, that's pretty sad because I was diagnosed ?7? years ago and basically had to learn along the w...more
So far this is a really interesting book. The word 'diet' makes it seem like it would be a fad-type book with little use. However, the author has done extensive research on all thyroid disorders and focuses on what the options for treatment may be, good supplements to take to ease the strain on the thyroid, foods to avoid that could hurt your thyroid function, and finally, a diet that is tailored to people with thyroid problems who want to lose wait (something that is extremely difficult for us...more
Exactly what I've been looking for! I have Graves' disease and have had two RAI treatments (not hypo yet but I was so hyper I assume I might as well be to my body). I have gained so much weight. I finally started feeling better and and trying to lose weight... nothing. Pretty sure I started gaining more. So I gave up. Now I started trying again and decided I wouldn't be discouraged. I found this book and it has been amazing. Basically every conclusion I had made was confirmed by this book. Plus...more

I give it 3 stars only because I haven't tried some of her recommendations yet. I think she covers everything but the kitchen sink in this one so it gets 5 stars for that. Myself I did not find it to be a fast read. To me it is more of a reference book, It is full of information & I believe she did a whole lot of research that I believe about 80% of. I had to read it twice, and then go back and pick out the various info I felt dealt w me.

It turns out, I don't think I have a thyroid problem...however I did like all of the checklists to guide you to a trip to the doc to do a thyroid test. Some of the tips and strategies are informational. It goes through a whole lot of herbal remedies and such, which is not my cup of tea. It was informational. A good quick read.
The Thyroid Diet Book By Mary Shomon
This was straightfoward, and I felt like it had some solid ideas that I could implement to help myself feel better and learn to live with my condition in a more healthy way. Of course there were parts I didn't really think would be helpful for me, but there was enough good stuff to make this worth a look.

Very medical and technical text... I had to have my husband read it too and tell me what I needed to do. But I think the information is right on and helpful. Took me a while to get through it... but it is about the Thyroid and how exciting can that be? I just want to be healthy... (and skinny!) LOL! (o:
There's a lot of really helpful information in this book. Shamon has done years of research on a problem she has faced in her own life. I found this book informative, easy-to-apply, full of hope and options. A book I recommend if you have faced thyroid complications.
There's some helpful info. here but also some things that conflict with what I've read elsewhere and with what my endocrinologist says (no shock THERE, right?) Still, I can take something away from this book.

I recently finished this, and am getting ready to read it again. If you are frustrated by an inability to lose weight when your thyroid is properly medicated (and there's a whole section about that, too) then this book is for you.
Feb 25, 2010Natalie Pietro rated it it was ok
I thought better of this book. Seeing I have a thyroid problem this book would help me get back down to my smaller size. However it mostly tought me some fun facts about my thyroid and some information I never new. Wish it had better tips but it was still a quick read.

This book is alright if you think you may have a thyroid problem and are trying to get your doctor to test you. I have had a thyroid condition for years and found this book the least helpful for me.
I registered a book at BookCrossing.com! http://www.BookCrossing.com/journal/14376346
This is a great book for anyone with an under-active thyroid. Lots of tips on foods, supplements, etc.

not very helpful, pseudo-science at best, no recipes, the diet info is too general.

Great insight into thyroid disease and what foods to stay away from as well as what helps!

Helpful information. I discovered my thyroid is fine, but her dietary info helps anyone of any body type. I lost 21 lbs w/help from a nutritionist and her book. Still a way to go, but it's a start.
Most of the info in this book was stuff that I already knew.. but it was great to get a fresh look at it again
So far this is the most helpful book I have read on helping to deal with a thyroid problem.

A summary of how to eat better, far too general.
This has been a re-read for me. Mary J. Shomon does an excellent job in addressing everything thyroid.
Excellent resource guide!

I think the explanation of the physiology was great, easy to understand for the non medical reader. It is really more of a change in lifestyle than a diet book.
