The Adrenal Thyroid Revolution: A Proven 4-Week Program to Rescue Your Metabolism, Hormones, Mind & Mood
Product ID: 253669103
A Yale-trained, board-certified family physician with a specialty in women's health and obstetrics delivers a proven 28-day program to heal the overwhelmed, overloaded systems, and prevent and reverse the myriad of symptoms affecting the vast majority of women today. Weight gain, fatigue, brain fog, hormonal imbalances, and autoimmune conditions―for years, health practitioners have commonly viewed each as individual health problems resulting from a patient’s genetic bad luck, poor lifestyle choices, or lack of willpower. Patients, too, have turned to different doctors to alleviate their specific symptoms: an endocrinologist for a thyroid problem; a gynecologist for hormonal issues; an internist for weight, diabetes, and high blood pressure; a rheumatologist for joint problems, and even to therapists or psychologists. While these ailments may seem unrelated, Dr. Aviva Romm contends that they are intrinsically connected by what she calls Survival Overdrive Syndrome, a condition that occurs when the body becomes overloaded. SOS can result from childhood survival patterns or adult life stressors that are compounded by foods we eat, toxins in our environment, viral infections, lack of sleep, disrupted gut microflora, and even prescribed medications. Two of the systems most affected are the adrenal system and the thyroid, which control mood, hormones, inflammation, immunity, energy, weight, will power, blood sugar balance, cholesterol, sleep, and a host of other bodily functions. When these systems become overwhelmed they lead to symptoms that can develop into full blow illnesses, including diabetes, hypertension, osteoporosis, and heart disease―all of which have medically provable origins in SOS. The Adrenal Thyroid Revolution explains SOS, how it impacts our bodies and can lead to illness, and most importantly, offers a drug-free cure developed through Dr. Romm’s research and clinical work with tens of thousands of patients. In as little as two weeks, you can lose excess weight, discover increased energy, improve sleep, and feel better. With The Adrenal Thyroid Revolution , you can rescue your metabolism, hormones, mind and mood―and achieve long-lasting health.

Muito radical
A autora diz que vai propor um método pálpavel, entretante trata-se de um metodo radical onde se corta quase todos os alimentos, inclusive algumas frutas e vegetais e propõe suplementações que não são comprovadas. Eu diria que é radical e contraditório, mas aprendi algumas coisas…

Finally! A powerful plan for women to take back their health!
After struggling for more than 2 years with chronic exhaustion, insomnia, stubborn weight gain, and other symptoms, I was thrilled to stumble upon Dr. Aviva's book and counted the days until it was released and showed up in my mailbox. I just finished reading it this morning, and It is everything I was hoping it would be and more.At least 25% of the women I know (and probably closer to 50%) struggle with low energy; hormone, thyroid, or autoimmune problems; and/or anxiety/depression. Unable to get help from their primary physicians, many of them have just resigned themselves to living this way. But it doesn't need to be so! Drawing upon cutting edge research, Dr. Aviva connects the dots between chronic exhaustion, digestive trouble, autoimmune disease, hormone imbalances, insomnia, stubborn weight gain, bad moods, and a host of other seemingly unrelated symptoms--that in reality are very much related!. She understands the problem, and what's more, she has answers and solutions.Women who have felt dismissed by the medical community or who have been told, "Your labs look great!" or, "It's all in your head," or even, "You just need to eat less and exercise more," will find a true and understanding friend in Dr. Aviva.Rather than focusing on treating symptoms, Dr. Aviva uses a natural, functional medicine approach to seek out and eliminate the root causes of those symptoms. In the first part of the book, she discusses how our lifestyle, stress level, processed food diets, environmental toxins, and stealth infections have gotten us into the health crisis so many of us women find ourselves in. The book is full of up-to-the-minute research on ideas and concepts that to me were--well, revolutionary! For example, take the critical role our microbiome plays in our health. I enjoyed a fascinating discussion on p. 79 about how harmful gut bacteria can actually make us crave junk food. She also explains the connection between our microbiome health and our susceptibility to mood disorders like anxiety and depression.Next in the book come several symptom questionnaires that allow the reader to discover her own personal root causes, which help her to form her own personalized solutions in the following section. Next, Dr. Aviva provides a practical plan for a quick return to health and vitality--in many cases actually reversing autoimmune disease and other major diagnoses.I had a true lightbulb moment when I read the sections about self-care. As a mother of four small children, I find myself taking care of everyone else first and never finding time to take care of myself. Dr. Aviva gives all of us busy women permission to pause; to take time to nurture and replenish our own emotional, mental, and physical stores. And in doing so, everyone around us benefits too! Also, her words about learning to overcome perfectionism, approval addiction, worry, and scarcity thinking were truly enlightening.In addition to providing a wonderful, nourishing eating plan, Dr. Aviva includes are many, suggestions and resources for using natural herbs and supplements to help the reader in her journey toward better health, and--in some instances such as hypothyroidism--medications when warranted. There is also a wonderful chapter on thyroid health that really helped me decipher my lab results and understand what in the world has been going on with my thyroid.The book is even beautiful to look at, with lovely graphic design and (blue!) color. The recipes I have tried suggest that resetting our diets does not have to mean deprivation--rather, quite the opposite! She has a flourless chocolate cake recipe that I am especially excited to try. I will say that the food plans and combination of recipes was a bit intimidating to me. A true foodie would find herself in foodie heaven, but if you are a kitchen novice, I would recommend that you also read Dr. Alan Christianson's book The Adrenal Reset Diet. His recipes are very simple and could be adapted for Dr. Aviva's program.I am so grateful for the research and hard work that have gone into this wonderful book, and I truly hope it will spark a revolution in women's healthcare. I am currently implementing the program in my life and will try to update this review when I have finally taken back my health.

Muy completo, interesante, práctico, hecho con amor y pasión.
Llevo siguiendo a Aviva Romm durante un tiempo (blog, podcast, conferencias...) y me parece una grandísima profesional con un conocimiento amplio y profundo sobre la salud, especialmente la de las mujeres. Pero no solo eso; su entusiasmo, su pasión y su fe en lo que hace son altamente contagiosos. Lo que quiere es educar y ayudar, así que todo lo que dice es completamente práctico desde el día uno, pero no para que lo hagas ciegamente, sino para que lo entiendas e integres en tu vida.

This is a great, very informative book even for those without adrenal or thyroid problems. Aviva writes about medical conditions in an easy to understand way. She advocates being responsible for our own health and becoming an educated, rather than trusting, patient who is not afraid to question our doctors and their prescribed medical treatments. She talks common sense about eating habits, vitamin and mineral supplements, and living healthy in every way. The book also includes some delicious recipes! Buy it and join the revolution!!!
