Foods That Make Hyperthyroidism WORSE

  • If you have hyperthyroidism then you're going to want to avoid these foods as they can make your symptoms worse:
    The first is any food that contains caffeine either naturally or because it's been added to it. That includes coffee, many teas, energy drinks, and even some medications.
    The second would be the most common food allergens like milk, eggs, peanuts, soy, wheat, tree nuts, and shellfish. This is because hyperthyroidism results in more histamine production.
    And third, foods that are high in iodine. You don't need to avoid iodine completely but high iodine content foods are not ideal.

      @@maryamzaheer9861 Oh wow. Do you have to take Thyroid medicine for the rest of your life?
      I actually found out not long after commenting that ALL of my health issues have been linked back to my oral health. From a Dentist standpoint I have great oral health. However I have 3 root canals that I’ve had for 10-15 years. I have no pain, swelling or inflammation in my face. But my old root canals are causing systemic disease and inflammation throughout my body. I am seeing a Biological Dentist now who will be removing my root canals. She’s already removed one, two more to go. She also removed a metal crown I had on a back tooth and discovered there was a Mercury filling under it that I was not aware of!! 🤬 Dr’s and Dentists need to get it together and realize we are WHOLE people and our teeth absolutely affect the health of the rest of the body.
      There is a great documentary out called Root Cause. It’s a little over an hour long and It was free on CZcams just a short time ago, but now they made it to where you have to buy or rent it for $3.99. You also have the option to watch it for free if you have a streaming channel like Tubi. Worth watching! This could really save so many lives if more people were aware of all the detrimental effects root canals and wisdom teeth cavitations can cause to ones health! Root canals should seriously be a thing of the past!
      Not too many people with a cancer would think to link it back to their oral health. PubMed has some good articles on this subject as well as Dr. Joseph Mercola.

      So, according to It's Me again, Jen (Save Your Thyroid) apparently the lower lobes of the thyroid have some control over the upper lobes. I think they called it "up regulation." This was discussed in her recent video abt a brand new technique where a specially targeted embolism is used to kill off part of the thyroid, but not necessarily the whole thing. It was prettu interesting to me.

    Great information, Dr.Childs! Where were you when I had severe Graves Disease years ago? 😢 My doctor told me none of this! I did figure out the caffeine on my own, though. My resting HR was 125, when I first woke up in the morning, before getting out of bed. The arrhythmia was so bad. No morning coffee for me. Graves ruined my life, and put my pregnancy in jeopardy, because that's when I got it. Couldn't take a high enough dose of propylthouracil (or the other drug, which I was allergic to.) Bad for the baby. Hormones. Yikes!

      @@amcafee4275 I still had Graves after my son was born. I had RAI to destroy the thyroid gland. Took 3 doses at 6 months apart. In hindsight, I wish I had the thyroidectomy, instead. Both kill the thyroid, but getting thyroid lowered took 2 years with RAI. With thyroidectomy, it's lowered instantly. Would have saved me 2 years of hell. My thyroid was extremely hyper, though. Not everyone's is.
