Sample Book Insights: #1 There is a big discrepancy among experts’ estimates of how many thyroid patients exist in the United States. The common assessment seems to be about 20 million Americans, while some groups estimate 27 million, with 13 million of them undiagnosed. #2 The only way to prevent yourself from rapidly deteriorating from hypothyroidism is to learn all you can about the condition, become your own thyroid expert, and take control of your own health so that you can help yourself and your doctor treat it correctly. #3 The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located on the front of and in the middle of your neck. It is the master gland of the human body, controlling the metabolic rate of every organ in the body. Inadequate thyroid hormones will ultimately contribute to a miserable existence. #4 Metabolic rate is the entire range of biological processes that occur within us. It involves the buildup and breakdown of substances, and it is controlled by thyroid hormones.
