wonderful video @ Dr Hashimoto and how he discovered hashis In Japan

[Guest guest]

hi

i came across this wonderful webpage and VIdeo on DR Hakaru Hashimoto

that is on the Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine.

In english

it describes his life including the fact that yes, he did discover

the autoimmune disease Hashimoto's in Japanese people on the island

of Japan.

he wrote an article in 1912 describing this discovery .

(his subjects were 4 Japanese women with the particular struma etc)

and he published the article with a publisher in Germany. (that is

why folks on forums keep saying erroneously that dr didn't make the

discovery of Hashis *in Japan*) yes japanese people in 1900 ate a

high iodine diet And japanese people get hashis.

anyway, the video is really moving, as you get to hear about his

whole life,, including how he discovered Hashis in Japan

and how he later became a " country " dr..

he sounds like a dr we would all love to have
