NUTRITION FOR PATIENT WITH HYPOTHYROIDISM
Hypothyroidism is the most common thyroid disorder, occurring when your thyroid gland functions below normal levels. At that point, the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones necessary for controlling energy and metabolism in the body.
Patients with hypothyroidism, thyroid tumors, thyroid disorders, or even thyroid cancer need to be treated to rebalance hormones, helping the thyroid function more effectively. Additionally, a proper diet also helps the body recover quickly, stimulating the thyroid’s activity to regain the best condition for the patient.
► Below are the food groups that patients with hypothyroidism should not overlook in their diet:

► Below are the food groups that patients with hypothyroidism should not overlook in their diet:
- Iodine: Iodine is a crucial component for the thyroid gland, as it helps this organ produce necessary hormones and balance them, thereby reducing the risk of thyroid tumor. Foods rich in iodine include seaweed, fish and seafood, iodine-fortified salt, milk and dairy products, eggs, beef liver.
- Leafy green vegetables: Leafy green vegetables (such as spinach, lettuce, etc.) often contain abundant magnesium along with essential minerals that participate in the functions of the thyroid gland hormones.
- Nuts: Not only green leafy vegetables, but also various types of nuts (cashews, almonds, pumpkin seeds) are rich in magnesium, helping the thyroid gland function better.
- Seafood of all kind: Various types of shrimp and fish contain high levels of iodine, which helps enhance the synthesis of thyroid hormones. Additionally, seafood also contains a significant amount of Omega-3 fatty acids, which boost the immune system and effectively prevent thyroiditis.
Eating habits and preferences of each individual are different, so the diet and exercise regimen need to be personalized for each person rather than having a menu or diet that applies to everyone.
