✅ Tip: Choose whole grains, legumes, and fiber-rich carbs.
🍳 7. Soy-Based Products
Soy can interfere with thyroid hormone absorption, especially if iodine levels are already low.
Limit:
- Tofu, soy milk, soy protein isolate
✅ Tip: Don’t eliminate soy entirely—but avoid large quantities daily.

While iodine is essential, too much can worsen autoimmune thyroid disease.
Be cautious with:
- Seaweed, iodized salt, iodine supplements
✅ Tip: Talk to your doctor before increasing or decreasing iodine.
✅ Better Foods for Thyroid Health
- Wild-caught salmon (omega-3s)
- Brazil nuts (selenium)
- Leafy greens (iron & magnesium)
- Berries (antioxidants)
- Coconut oil (supports metabolism)
