AVOID These 3 Foods With Hypothyroidism
If you have hypothyroidism then certain food groups should be avoided because they can have a negative impact on thyroid function and your overall health. Based on my experience, here are 3 foods that pretty much every thyroid patient with low thyroid function should avoid:
1. Coffee: Coffee has been shown to have a suppressive effect on thyroid function, may decrease the absorption of thyroid medication, and lead to issues like insomnia. It's best to avoid all sources of caffeine if you have hypothyroidism.
2. Industrial seed oils: Industrial seed oils have been well-documented to cause harm to the body. The list of oils to avoid is larger than the list of oils to consume so focus on these: coconut oil, extra virgin olive oil, grass-fed butter, and avocado oil.
3. Processed foods: Eat foods that have been minimally processed! Frozen strawberries with the tops cut off would be okay but strawberry jam would not.
