Hope for Hashimoto's by Dr. Alexander Haskell N.D.

Dr. Alexander Haskell is a graduate of The National College of Natural Medicine after completing his pre-med at San Francisco State University, and has been a licensed Naturopathic Physician for the last 27 years. A number of years ago his lectures on thyroid hormones given primarily to groups of women along the East Coast were met with great appreciation and enthusiasm yet a cry was often heard from the audience, a cry of frustration about their condition, Hashimotos. With great encouragement from his community and followers Dr. Haskell went to work. His research pulled articles from all over the world, many of them translated into English, to finally put the pieces together. He brought this research back into his clinic and put it into practice. "It worked. I mean I was kind of surprised, but then not surprised because all the steps required to reduce thyroid inflammation and thyroid antibodies made sense. But I must admit that every time I get a lab result back to see that a patient's antibodies are going down, I am still thrilled." We have produced a series of videos on Hashimotos which covers some of the same material from Dr. Haskell's book.

"I am so impressed that I writing to let you know this is the best book on Thyroid that I have read in my 10 years of reading anything I can find about thyroid problems." Gail A. "Just want you to know how much both my husband and I appreciate the treatment that I am receiving from you; I had so much pain before we began, and it is such a relief to have most of it gone. Before, I could barely get in and out of the car, or even stand up after being seated. We both wondered if I was going to end up completely disabled! It seemed that there was no answer. I was so disheartened to have had all the faulty treatment from previous doctors, that I just didn't know where to turn. I had searched the internet diligently, but was unable to find anyone that seemed to know how to properly treat the thyroid, and also the treatment of other hormones. I knew there must be someone. I believe that God answered my prayers in directing me to your site." Debbie V. There are many others but we are running out of character space

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
If you have Hashimotos or are hypothyroid, I definitely recommend this book. I have read it and am very impressed with it for many reasons. Dr. Alexander Haskell does advocate using this information (which can be found in medical journals, I appreciate his citation) along with a physician. I went years going from doctors to endocrinologists not really getting the help or answers I needed. And I realize, it was because I wasn't looking myself. Most endos see patients that have various problems, their focus is not thyroid diseases, therefore they don't take it upon themselves to update their practice of treating thyroid patients. I was so frustrated that I started reading medical journals on thyroid diseases and autoimmune diseases myself. I came across this book and was happy to find that Dr. Alexander Haskell uses information from many of the scientific studies I have read about. Face it, your endocrinologist is a person with a family, most likely over 35 and they are not researching on nights and weekends the newest and best thyroid approaches. Dr. Haskell has! My antibodies (Anti-TG abs) just went up 100 points this past month, to a total of 603 IU/ml. I plan to start using Dr. Alexander Haskell's methods under the care of my endo and will report back here in 3 months. It is an easy well written book. It reads as if he is speaking directly to you in a conversational way. I would also like him to write a book in a more textbook like fashion as well. I will note, that as I started reading the book it led me to ask my endo for specific tests. ...tests that came back abnormal! My endo was interested and impressed that I asked for the tests, I told her I read this book and I am bringing it to my next appointment! I am taking control of my health with the help of this book, finally. *There is a pdf that Dr. Alexander Haskell has made for physicians who are interested in the data he has found and studied. *Dr. Alexander Haskell has videos on youtube! Check them out! Thanks Dr. Alexander Haskell, you are really helping those with thyroid diseases!!!
