Yes you can: in addition to other fruits and vegetables, good rest and sleep, fresh air and exercise, if still having the problem, see an allergist / immunonlogist, check aaaai.org or acaai.org for an allergist in your area. Thyroid disease unlikely makes you prone to catching colds frequently, best wishes
