Hyper thy dm: Diet is not the important thing right now. She needs to get her thyroid issue straightened out then work on DM if still a problem.

Healthiest: The healthiest diet for both is an unprocessed whole foods nearly (19 of 21 meals a week) vegan diet of brown rice/quinoa, vegetables except potatoes, beans of any kind, small amount of fruit/nuts/seeds. This is high fiber, low fat, low cholesterol, low sodium, high potassium, high magnesium, against constipation, and is also ideal for cancer prevention. H Robert Silverstein MD, FACC
