WHY WE WROTE THIS
BOOK |
|
|
|
Karilee Shames, a nurse, was dating Richard Shames, MD, when
she was experiencing multiple uncomfortable symptoms. Their
exploration became a 25- year journey to understand the multiple
gland imbalances that have similarly impacted all three of their
children.
They have spent the last 25 years specializing in natural
approaches (when possible) to multiple gland imbalance, which is
fast becoming epidemic in proportion, due to the increasing
pollution of the air, food, and water.
All too often, this crucial
connection is missed by conventional medical care. This book
helps readers to make this crucial connection, and to learn how
to improve this situation. |
|
|
|
BOOK
SYNOPSIS |
|
|
|
This book explores one of the most serious
omissions in modern medical care - the pervasive, bothersome
illnesses caused by environmentally induced gland imbalance. The
authors, a doctor-nurse team for over 25 years, have an elegant
and profound solution.
Feeling Fat, Fuzzy, or Frazzled is the first book written by
health professionals to address the reasons for and the many
uncomfortable symptoms of multiple gland imbalance. It also is
unusual in offering questionnaires that help readers determine
their unique gland profile. It further recommends and explains
home-based diagnostic tools to more accurately define the
specific hormonal deficiencies. Finally, it suggests natural remedies and
other approaches to help rebalance the glandular system.
Given that our glands control EVERY aspect of our metabolism,
cell reproduction, and immunity, the importance of this topic to
one's general health cannot be overestimated. This book focuses
mainly on the three most important
hormone-producing tissues -
thyroid, adrenal, and sex glands. It provides a detailed
explanation of how to determine your main gland imbalance, and
immediately begin successful re-balancing efforts that is easily
understood by a mass-market readership.
While focusing on the hormonal triad, it also presents a model
for consumer empowerment, especially encouraging consumers
in finding their own voices. In doing so, it can help to reshape
modern medicine into a more responsive and egalitarian system.
Most of all, this book demystifies the current epidemic of gland
imbalance that causing hundreds of uncomfortable everyday
symptoms, allowing millions of health consumers to look and feel
their best. It is simple, elegant and profound - the
right medicine for our fast-paced ailing society. This powerful
new program has the potential to change a great many lives -
immediately - and forever. |
