In my opinion this is the very best book on Hypothyroidism, from a practical viewpoint. I am extremely sensitive to thyroid hormones, and alongside the traditional methods of thyroid replacement by the NHS I have found it nigh impossible to eliminate my horrid symptoms of thyroid deficiency. The author is a retired Gynaecologist but also happens to be Hypothyroid, so she writes from very personal experience. ..both her own experience and that of many hypo patients, whom she clearly treated for hypothyroidism . I have never read such a lucid, honest , detailed and thoughtful book on the subject….the HOW TO DO IT for all of us with hypo problems. Also, her method seems to be unique..I have not come across her methods before, or in the detail, which she give good and full evidence and reason for. If you have any hypothyroid problems , don’t hesitate to buy this book. E

Watched some of episode one and gave up absolutely certain it was not for me,,,twee and silly I felt. Was later persuaded to start again and boy, I’m glad I did. It’s a really entertaining series…enough edge to stave off any sense of being twee, ( constant chocolate box images of snow falling in December..thinks Quality street and Christmas ) very well cast and excellent acting… And yes, surprisingly , a great plot… And skilfully woven from many characters andDickens’ storylines. . . I don’t believe Dickens ever set out to write pure comedy but… and this production similarly conveys an engaging tale that cannot help but be choc full of hilarious characters with a great script, Dickensian is pure Christmas/ winter entertainment of the type we used to have on BBC on a Sunday afternoon..plus a little bit more. Can’t recommend this enough. Pure relaxation and fun.
