Thyroid Diet

The thyroid, a small gland located in the neck, plays a significant role in the body’s metabolism. When it’s not functioning properly, it can impact your energy levels, mood, weight, and overall health. A well-balanced diet can support thyroid health and help manage symptoms.

Foods to Avoid

Certain foods can interfere with thyroid function. These include:

• Soy: Soy products can interfere with the body’s ability to absorb thyroid medication.
• Cruciferous vegetables: While they’re healthy, vegetables like broccoli and cabbage can interfere with thyroid hormone production if eaten in large amounts.
• Gluten: Some people with thyroid conditions may also have celiac disease, which means they need to avoid gluten.
