Blood tests do not detect the vast majority of cases of hypothyroidism, Mark Starr, MD

http://fatnews.com/ Hi, this is Larry Hobbs @ FatNews.com.

My research shows that many chronic illnesses including heart disease, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, mental illnesses, Alzheimer's disease, and the explosion of childhood illnesses are largely attributable to Type 2 hypothyroidism.

Type 1 Hypothyroidism is defined as failure of the thyroid gland to produce sufficient amounts of necessary to maintain normal blood levels of those hormones and normal blood levels of the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH).

Type 2 Hypothyroidism is defined as [a] resistance to thyroid hormones at the cellular level.

[In Type 2 hypothyroidism,] Normal amounts of thyroid hormones and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) are detected by the blood tests therefore, blood tests do not detect Type 2 hypothyroidism.

You might also call Dr. Starr's office and ask if he knows someone in your area.

Thank you. I have been shopping for a new doctor. BTW, I think the reason why thyroid problems are on the increase is best explained by the addition of fluoride to the water, and reduced iodine consumption.
