Thyroid health series pt1: Nutrition tips for supporting the thyroid and improving symptoms of hypothyroidism.
Hypothyroidism is an endocrine disease where the thyroid does not produce enough of the hormones which can cause several symptoms such as dry skin & hair, feeling cold, fatigued, weight gain, poor circulation etc.
The foods listed are beneficial for improving these symptoms and really help to support and nourish the body. In my experience (I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in 2016 and was on medication for 4 years before healing myself completely using diet, lifestyle and such methods) these foods were the most supportive to me personally. That’s not to say they will work for everyone - you have to be in tune with your own needs. That being said, these foods are extremely nutrient dense and well absorbed by the body, in a time when digestion may be poor and everything feels sluggish and slow.
Especially as we come into the winter in many parts of the world, the warming foods are especially important to support the circulation and heat within the body. Eating enough healthy fat is vital.
Give them a try!
