What should be the diet for a person suffering from hypothyroid? what foods to eat and what not to? weight gain is happening...
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diet and hypothyroid: Hypothyroid patients should be on no special diet. Speak to your endocrinologist (e) and make sure you TSH is normal. If it is not, you may need more levothyroxine. If it is, ask your e for an assessment of your problem. You could also be gaining weight due to edema formation, and that could be independent of your thyroid function. Get help from your e.
