Hypothyroid Diet: The Foods to Eat And to Avoid

By James Wight

Are you one of the 30 million people currently suffering with hypothyroidism? I'm sure you know that a hypothyroid diet will help you but what foods specifically do you need to eat? In this article I will reveal the steps to a top hypothyroidism diet. Imagine for a moment how good you will feel once you've implemented these changes in diet. Your hair will no longer be brittle, the weight will drop off and your mood will lift.

Cutting down certain foods will help your thyroid function better. That's because some foods hold properties that damage your already sluggish thyroid gland. Any foods containing goitrogens must, at the very least, be cut down. These are often very healthy foods like turnips, pears and sprouts.

Next lets look at the foods that you need in your hypothyroid diet. These are foods that will help your sluggish thyroid gland. Some things I have liked are chicken breast, fish and almonds. You want to eat anything that contains tyrosine as this will help your thyroid function.

Juice up your metabolism. Your hypothyroid diet needs to help with this as the thyroid has caused it to slow. The easiest way to do this is to increase the amount of meals you eat per day. Aim for around 6 small, healthy meals and you'll turn your body into a fat stripping machine.

In order to relieve constipation, a very common side effect of a low thyroid, you need to eat plenty of fiber. This is also great for weight loss and can be found in many grains, nuts and breakfast cerials. My personal preference is branflakes which is a great energy booster also.

So that's it! Put these steps into action in your hypotyroid diet and you'll not only see weight loss but you'll be feeling better and looking better. Thanks for reading! Believe me, you CAN lose weight with the right diet for hypothyroidism. - 17269
