If you have put on weight and are feeling low and sluggish because of your hypothyroidism you need to know which foods will get your body back to feeling great and get you back in control of your mind.

I’m going to take you through the foods that I used to treat my condition naturally so that you can do the same. By using this information you will be free from draining crashes in energy, hair loss and brittle nails plus many other side effects.

Go for foods that include tyrosine such as almonds, pumpkin seeds, bananas, lentils, fish, turkey and chicken breast. These helped me to feel a whole lot better.

You must also go for foods which incorporate iodine. This is great for hypothyroidism and helped me to get my energy levels up quickly. Some foods I would recommend are fish oils, seaweed and sea kelp.

After you’ve eaten a meal try this: sit in a quiet room and try to really notice the effect the food has had on your body. You will notice your energy levels and whether your mind is active or cloudy. Doing this will give you valuable insights on how certain foods effect you personally.

You will start to find that some foods make you feel noticeably better than others. This is very important! Keep track of this and you will be on your way to better hypothyroidism management.

One thing I always recommend is to keep a log of your foods and how they make you feel. You can do this with a simple note book or even an online blog or even video diary. Charting your journey in this way can be very helpful to you and if you make this journey accessible to others they will surly also benefit.

One thing I cannot stress enough is to stay away from fad diets! These are usually diets that involve extremes like only eating soup or cutting out all carbs. These diets are bad for most people but are especially bad for someone with hypothyroidism.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this article on hypothyroidism foods and will be taking the first steps to feeling better very soon.
