Rather than focusing only on restrictions, aim for a balanced, nutrient-rich diet that supports thyroid health:
Lean proteins
Cooked vegetables
Whole grains (if tolerated)
Healthy fats
Adequate selenium, zinc, and iodine (from food, not excess supplements)
Final Thoughts
Managing hypothyroidism isn’t just about medication—it’s also about supporting your body with smart dietary choices. Avoiding or limiting certain foods can help reduce symptoms, improve energy levels, and support overall thyroid function.
Always talk with a healthcare professional before making major dietary changes, especially if you’re taking thyroid medication.
