THYROID

Thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland in the front of your neck. It makes hormones that control the way the body uses energy. These hormones affect nearly every organ in your body and control many of your body's most important functions.T

Here are 5 foods that can help balance thyroid levels:

Iodine-rich foods: Iodine is an essential mineral for thyroid function. Good sources of iodine include seaweed, fish, dairy products, and eggs.

Selenium-rich foods: Selenium is another important mineral for thyroid health. Good sources of selenium include Brazil nuts, tuna, sardines, eggs, and legumes.

Omega-3 fatty acids: Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to help improve thyroid function. Good sources of omega-3 fatty acids include fatty fish, such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel; walnuts; and flaxseeds.

Fiber-rich foods: Fiber can help to regulate blood sugar levels, which can help to improve thyroid function. Good sources of fiber include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and beans.

Probiotic-rich foods: Probiotics are live bacteria that are beneficial for gut health. Good sources of probiotics include yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and kimchi.

It is important to note that these are just a few of the many foods that can help balance thyroid levels. It is always best to talk to your doctor or a registered dietitian to create a personalized diet plan that is right for you.
