A 2021 Doody's Core Titles® Selection
Using the most current evidence-based guidelines from the American Thyroid Association, the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists, and available research, this guide addresses:
- • Thyroid function, weight regulation, and the role of iodine
- • Energy and nutrient requirements in thyroid disease
- • Diagnosis, medical management, and applying the Nutrition Care Process to provide patient-centered nutrition care for hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and thyroid cancer
- • Awareness of additional interventions, including alternative treatments
- • Working with special populations, related conditions and issues, and prevention strategies
Useful appendix materials include sample food plans, low iodine diet guidelines, a list of goitrogens, monitoring recommendations, suggested resources, and more.
The book is written for healthcare professionals: physicians, dietitians, and other allied health professionals. It is not meant for students. I see this being useful in endocrinology practices, chiropractic offices, and natural medicine professionals. The author appears to be a credible authority on this subject. However, she noted to "keep an open mind," highlighting that the information presented may not be 100% evidence-based and maybe some of her own opinion and experience.
Doody's Review
"While there are many books about thyroid disease, this is the first that integrates pathophysiology, medical treatment, and nutrition recommendations. This book could be a useful resource for health professionals who work with a large number of thyroid patients and wish to explore complementary treatment options for their thyroid condition."
