Is the Schwarzbein Principle in book form? Where is your source from. Traci?

The book I have is called, "The Schwarzbein Principle: The Program." It probably is just what you need. It is geared towards people with damaged metabolisms and talks about thyroid problems specifically. You are so right that calories aren't everything. It's all about the chemical reactions.
