The workshop, titled “10 Things You Can Do to Improve Your Thyroid,” focuses on key issues — doctors, tests, medications, supplements, diet, and lifestyle changes — that can help thyroid patients get back on track and enjoy better health.

Some of the many questions that will be answered during the workshop include:

What thyroid tests are really needed, and how can patients understand and act on the results?
What is “optimal” thyroid treatment, and how can patients get it from their physicians?
What should thyroid patients avoid eating and drinking when taking thyroid medication?
What dietary changes could put a thyroid condition into remission?
How can people who are hypothyroid lose weight?
How can thyroid patients lower thyroid antibodies and reduce inflammation?
What is the role of the adrenals, and how does being “tired and wired” affect the thyroid?
Why is stress such a factor in thyroid conditions, and what can patients do about it?
What kinds of doctors can help, and how can patients find them?
How can thyroid patients cope with thyroid-related hair loss?

Special guests at the workshop include:

NYC integrative physician David Borenstein, MD – talking about how integrative physicians can partner with patients for thyroid diagnosis and optimal treatment

Mind-body health expert and creator of the popular “Thyroid Meditation” CD, Demo DiMartile, on the positive role of stress management in thyroid and autoimmune disease

Says Shomon: “This workshop answers so many questions, and thyroid patients walk away armed with practical approaches they can start implementing right away to help feel and live their very best. One participant has said that she even calls it ‘Thyroid School!'”

Important reference materials and class notes will be provided in an information-packed handout package.
