12 Healing Thyroid Foods
Hippocrates said it best when he stated, “Let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food.” When we look at thyroid health we have to look at the foods that we are putting into our body. It is those foods that could prevent or aide in the healing of the thyroid gland.
These 12 healing thyroid foods are the ones that I feel are absolutely key when it comes to thyroid healing. In the video I cover all 12 healing thyroid but in the text below I’m going to cover the top 4.
Protein
Sable Fish
Sable fish is extremely high in essential fatty acids, as well as, contains a wonderful balance of minerals that the fish draws into the body from the water it lives it. It is this combination of minerals and essential fatty acids that can be incredibly healthy for the thyroid gland.
Hemp Seeds
Hemp seeds are one of the only plant based forms of protein that contain all the essential amino acids that the human body needs. In addition, hemp seeds are very high in the amino acid L-tyrosine. The reason that is so important is because your thyroid can’t make thyroid hormone without the amino acid L-tyrosine. In addition, hemp seeds are very anti-inflammatory, which reduces thyroid stress and promotes healing. This definitely makes hemp seeds part of the 12 healing thyroid foods for sure.
Fats
Brazil Nuts
Brazil nuts are very high in the nutrient selenium which is essential for the conversion of T4 to T3, which is why I include them in my once a day 12 thyroid healing thyroid foods.
Carbohydrates
Wild Blueberries
Wild blueberries are definitely one of the key 12 healing thyroid foods because they have the ability to pull dangerous heavy metals out of the human body. The reason that’s so important is because the heavy metal mercury can actually interfere with the absorption of iodine into the thyroid gland. This is a major concern because the thyroid has to have iodine in order to make thyroid hormone.
