One of the first steps that you can take in treating your
hypothyroid is to avoid the “health foods” that you are eating right now that
actually help to contribute to your hypothyroidism.
Some of the first foods on this list are any of foods that
contain soy. This includes foods such as edamame, soybeans, tofu, soy milk. Soy
can be very estrogenic, and it has been shown that estrogens inhibit your
thyroid gland from secreting its needed thyroid hormones.
Having polyunsaturated fats in your diet can also
contribute to hypothyroidism. When it comes to treating your hypothyroid, these
fats also suppress thyroid function. They block the thyroid gland from
secreting its thyroid hormone, and they can also block your bloodstreams
transportation of the thyroid hormone. They can also block your cells from
properly using the hormone as well once they get it.
