Ah, thyroid issues and weight gain, the classic duo! I've started adding pumpkin seeds and walnuts to my routine because they say selenium is good for the thyroid. Honestly, even if it doesn't solve everything, at least I get to snack on something healthy while complaining about my metabolism!
While eating iodine-rich iodized salt, dairy, and nuts can support thyroid health, there is no food that can replace your daily thyroid hormone medication. It is a highly regulated hormonal issue, so the best approach is to take your pills on empty stomach as prescribed and get regular blood tests done.
I got diagnosed with hypothyroid last year and was super confused about what to eat. I cut down on soy products and raw cabbage/cauliflower, as my doctor said they can interfere with thyroid absorption. Sticking to cooked veggies and nuts has worked well for me so far.
I completely understand how frustrating it is when you feel constantly exhausted and low because of thyroid imbalance. Adding selenium-rich Brazil nuts and reducing refined sugar helped slightly with my energy levels, but please be gentle with yourself. Healing takes time and it is okay to have low-energy days.
