With over 30 presentations about common medical problems tied to thyroid disease, you’ll learn why the thyroid gland is the master gland in your body--every cell depends on thyroid hormone to function optimally. If you’re not aware of a thyroid problem, you could develop psychological, cardiovascular and neurological disorders. Medications for a variety of symptoms will never solve the problem, but optimizing your thyroid hormone with vitamins, minerals, dietary changes and the right medications can.


You may have thyroid disease if you have any of these symptoms:
• Anxiety • Heart disease • Mood swings • Chronic fatigue • Heart palpitations • Obesity
• Cold intolerance • Infertility • Sexual problems • Depression • Insomnia • Shortness of breath
• Hair loss • Loss of sex drive • Dry Skin

This summit will provide you with all the information you need to optimize thyroid function
and stop the suffering once and for all.
• Learn why conventional medicine misses the diagnosis.
• Find out which thyroid tests will properly evaluate thyroid function.
• Educate yourself and learn how to speak with your medical professionals.
• Access safe and effective natural remedies from over 30 world-leading authorities!
Don’t settle for poor health! Change your life. Stop feeling sick and tired.
