I have been to many of the web sites for thyroid and adrenal issues and have found them to be lacking in total approach and /or treatment protocol. The one main attribute of many sites is to sell you the latest greatest hormone extract and such. STTM site doesn't seem to give you a hard sell and by carefully reading the forum posts you can extract nuggets a great information. The reason some on this board are critical of other sites is because of their gaining great knowledge and can discern helpful data from crap. THIS IS EXCELLENT!!! I have been getting treatment from a chiropractic/energy doctor for awhile now and I have gained great knowledge because of him, my treatment effectiveness have flattened out. I feel the treatment only was partially effective BUT the doors to find even greater knowledge because of him was terrific.
