***HYPOTHYROID CONDITION -CAN BE REVERSED** MOST WOMAN THAT HAVE A HYPO THYROID ALSO HAVE HIGH CHOLESTEROL AND - STAGE 1 HEART DISEASE GET TESTED - I encourage you to learn more about your individual needs Please ! If you think you may have a thyroid imbalance, it’s a good idea to see a Healthcare Practitioner to request a full thyroid hormone panel THE THYROID GLAND MUST HAVE THE FOLLOWING MINERAL S AND NUTRIENTS TO FUNCTION **IODINE (I). Your thyroid simply can’t function without this crucial trace element, and if you are iodine-deficient, higher iodine intake could make all the difference for your thyroid. According to a 2012 **CDC report, women of childbearing age (20-39) in the US had the lowest urine iodine levels ...next to postmenopausal women 2nd ..If you are deficient in iodine, the thyroid just doesn’t have the most basic building-blocks to make its key hormones, all the tissues in the body are negatively impacted **SELENIUM (Se). is another indispensable element to healthy thyroid function. An array of selenium-based proteins and enzymes help to do several things: they regulate thyroid hormone synthesis and metabolism; convert T4 into the more accessible form of thyroid hormone, T3; and maintain just the right amount of thyroid hormones in the blood and tissues, **ZINC (Zn) +IRON (Fe), and COPPER (Cu). People with hypothyroidism more prone to developing high cholesterol and heart problems !! **IODINE=Primary sources: sea vegetables (kelp, dulse, hijiki, nori, arame, wakame, kombu) and seafood (clams, shrimp, haddock, salmon, sardines), asparagus, lima beans, mushrooms, spinach, sesame seeds, summer squash, Swiss chard, garlic ***SELENIUM = Brazil nuts, tuna, walnuts, mushrooms, halibut, soybeans, sunflower seeds and chard ***ZINC =sardines, split peas, whole grains, sunflower seeds, pecans, Brazil nuts, almonds, walnuts, ginger root, maple syrup ***COPPER= oysters, wild varieties and shiitake mushrooms, dark chocolate, crabmeat, tomato paste, pearled barley, nuts, beans (soybeans, white beans, chickpeas), sunflower seeds ***IRON = Kale, collards,soybeans, pumpkin seeds, white beans, blackstrap molasses, lentils, spinach, ***VITAMIN A (beta-carotene form) Kale, sweet potatoes, carrots, winter squash/pumpkin, spinach, cantaloupe, broccoli, asparagus,lettuce ***VITAMIN C = Guava, peppers (chili, Bell, sweet), kiwifruit, citrus, strawberries, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, papaya, parsley, greens (kale, turnip, collard, mustard) Vitamin E =Whole grains, almonds, soybeans and other beans, sunflower seeds, leafy green vegetables, asparagus ***VITAMIN B2 (riboflavin) Brewer’s yeast, almonds, wheat germ, wild rice, mushrooms, ***VITAMIN B3 (niacin) Brewer’s yeast, rice bran, wheat bran, peanuts ( with skin), mushrooms ***VITAMIN B6 (pyroxidine) Brewer’s yeast, sunflower seeds, wheat germ, fish (tuna, salmon, trout), beans (soybeans, lentils, lima beans, navy beans, garbanzos, pinto beans), walnuts, brown rice, bananas @@BEWARE OF GLUTEN! There is one food I do strongly recommend avoiding if you have a thyroid condition: gluten. A distinct connection between celiac disease, gluten intolerance, and autoimmune thyroid issues has been observed, and many of my patients find that when they remove gluten-containing foods, they feel much better and notice fewer problems with their thyroid.
