Are you a thyroid patient struggling with weight loss? 

 

Here are some diets for the thyroid that can help in weight loss:

 

1. Food rich in Selenium and Zinc: Chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, are rich in zinc. While Brazil nuts are rich in Selenium. Zinc and selenium are essential for producing Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), leading to improved thyroid health and keeping you full for longer, aiding in weight loss.

 

2. Legumes and beans: Legumes and beans are high in protein g content that keeps you full and suppresses your appetite for longer leading to weight loss.

 

3. Copper and Omega-3- 3 fatty acids: Foods like Almonds, dark leafy greens, potatoes, and sesame seeds are rich sources of copper, and egg, walnuts, ghee, and chia seeds are rich in Omega-3- 3 fatty acids, and can be included in the diet of a thyroid patient for weight loss.

 

4. Fruits: Fruits like apples, avocados, kiwi, and berries are rich in antioxidants which can decrease cholesterol and reduce weight.

 

5. Iodine: Food rich in iodine like salt, fish, and eggs can help regulate and balance thyroid hormones leading to decreased weight.

 

6. Vitamin D: Vitamin D deficiency can lead to weight gain in thyroid patients. Foods rich in vitamin D such as eggs, fish, liver, and mushrooms can help balance the level of vitamin D in the body and regulate thyroid function leading to weight loss.

 

  • Remember exercise and yoga are vital along with diet for weight loss in individuals with thyroid disorders.
