This book describes how the author recovered from severe adrenal hormone issues by developing an innovative and simple approach called the Circadian T3 Method (CT3M), which helps to produce cortisol as nature intended. Thyroid patients often have symptoms associated with low cortisol (hypocortisolism). These can include: severe fatigue; low blood sugar; aches/pains; dizziness; poor response to thyroid hormones; anxiety; fluctuating body temperature; digestive upsets; allergies; nausea; low blood pressure - to name but a few. Thyroid hormones will not work correctly if the adrenal glands do not produce an adequate level of cortisol. Consequently, patients with hypocortisolism often continue to have symptoms, even if thyroid hormone levels have been corrected. Symptoms of low cortisol appear to be at epidemic levels among thyroid patients. The author explains why hypocortisolism can often be present when a thyroid patient is taking thyroid medication. The Circadian T3 Method (CT3M) is an approach to using T3 or natural desiccated thyroid medications that mimics the natural rhythm of our thyroid hormones, and helps to improve adrenal hormone levels. CT3M has been used by thousands of thyroid patients since the author first introduced it in his first book 'Recovering with T3'. CT3M is providing thyroid patients, and their doctors, with a simple, natural way to correct hypocortisolism. The book explains CT3M in depth. It provides thyroid patients, and their doctors, with the wealth of information that is needed when using CT3M in order to get truly well. The book has a foreword by Dr. Sarah Myhill, who says this about the book: "It gives every thyroid patient the clues, the rules and most importantly the confidence to identify underlying impediments to recovering their health, and adjust their dosage of thyroid hormones to an individually tailored regime. I would recommend this book to any patient who has failed to respond to standard mono-therapy with thyroxine." The CT3M Handbook is a must-read for all thyroid patients struggling with hypocortisolism. It is also essential reading for doctors who have patients like these in their care. The book was updated in 2018 to incorporate recent thyroid research study findings. This book along with the author's other books about hypothyroidism, now form the 'Recovering from Hypothyroidism series'.

This book describes how the author recovered from severe adrenal hormone issues by developing an innovative yet simple method called the Circadian T3 Method (CT3M), to support the adrenal glands as nature intended.

"The CT3M Handbook is a must-read for all thyroid patients truggling with partial adrenal insufficiency, and essential reading for doctors who have such patients in their care."--P. 4 of cover.

The author's journey from hypothyroidism to full recovery using the T3 thyroid hormone.

A guide to understanding hypothyroidism for those who suspect they have low thyroid hormone levels and patients who have just been diagnosed and are beginning treatment as well as those who are on treatment already, but are still feeling ill.

This acclaimed book is the UPDATED REVISION of a gutsy, life-changing and revolutionary patient-to-patient book against decades of a worldwide medical scandal in the treatment of hypothyroidism, no matter the cause. It's not about the TSH, it's not about Synthroid or levothyroxine. This updated revision book will outright change your life!

Created by Janie Bowthorpe, patient-to-patient STTM (Stop the Thyroid Madness) birthed hypothyroid treatment knowledge and protocols to counter decades of treatment mismanagement due to inferior medications, the wrong lab work, and a poor understanding of symptoms. Now Bowthorpe brings the reader this book, authored by over a dozen medical professionals. You'll read about the functional and holistic approach to thyroid disease, how stress affects the thyroid patient, the superior treatment of natural desiccated thyroid, why the TSH lab test is inadequate, what "normal" really doesn't mean when it comes to lab work, the importance of nutrition in regaining health and well-being, all about the autoimmune Hashimoto's version of hypothyroidism, why doctors are the way they are and how to relate to them, gluten and nutritional issues, thyroid toxicity and how to counter those toxins, the Reverse T3 problem, how MTHFR and methylation blockages can affect thyroid patients, and an understanding of why so many thyroid patients end up with low cortisol, aka hypocortisolism.
