As it is mentioned above, both internal and external factors have an influence on the thyroid disorders, as, as many patients, the imbalance occurred as a result of a combination of certain aspects including immunity, hormones, diet as well as the environment.
Joseph Mercola, DO, is one of the best and most popular American alternative medicine doctors. Dr. Mercola believes that in order to maintain your health at an optimal level, you need to work on many aspects, and he agrees with the basic logic of Dr. Schwartz.
