Have you been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis? Are you unsure of the best foods to minimize disease progression and maximize symptom-free living? Look no further! On your next trip to the grocery store, load up on:
-Brazil nuts: packed with selenium, a mineral that shows powerful benefit to thyroid function. Aim for 2 per day for maximal benefit.
-Sweet potatoes: a complex carb that support the thyroid by offering beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A supportive to the immune system. Sweet potatoes also boast high fiber and a low glycemic index.
-Bone broth: a protein powerhouse, loaded with important nutrients for gut support. The gut is interlinked with the immune system, making bone broth a powerful tool in the autoimmune mechanisms of Hashimoto’s.
-Wild caught fish: full of omega-3 fatty acids, which are potent anti-inflammatory nutrients. Salmon is a great choice! Make sure it’s wild caught for the most nutrients with the least toxins.
-Dark, leafy greens: rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as magnesium and calcium. Spinach and collard greens are excellent options for thyroid support.
