About the Author
DR. IZABELLA WENTZ is one of the pioneering experts in lifestyle interventions for treating Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. She was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis in 2009. Trained as a pharmacist, Dr. Wentz was surprised at the lack of knowledge about lifestyle interventions for Hashimoto’s and autoimmune conditions, so decided to take on lifestyle interventions as a personal mission in an effort to help herself and others with the same condition. She self-published her first book, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis: Lifestyle Interventions for Finding and Treating the Root Cause, in 2013. In 2017 her second book, Hashimoto’s Protocol: A 90-Day Plan for Reversing Thyroid Symptoms and Getting Your Life Back, was a #1 New York Times bestseller and international phenomenon. Izabella Wentz currently lives near Boulder, Colorado, with her husband, Michael; their son, Dimitry; and their dog, Boomer.
