    What does a thyroid dietitian do?

    A thyroid dietitian reviews your thyroid reports (TSH, T3, T4 and antibodies if tested), symptoms, medicines and daily routine, then plans meals that support your treatment, help with weight and improve energy, digestion and mood. Diet does not replace thyroid medication, but the right nutrition makes a real difference to how you feel.

    Working with a thyroid nutritionist is different from following a generic diet chart. Your plan is built around the food you eat at home, timed around your thyroid medicine as advised by your doctor, and adjusted at regular follow-ups.

    Foods that support thyroid health

    • Iodised salt in normal amounts provides the iodine your thyroid needs.
    • Selenium and zinc from eggs, fish, sunflower and pumpkin seeds, and dals.
    • Iron-rich foods such as green leafy vegetables, rajma and chana, with vitamin C to help absorption.
    • Protein and fibre at every meal to manage weight and keep energy steady.
    • Cabbage, cauliflower and soy are usually fine when cooked and eaten in normal portions.

    Thyroid and weight loss

    Hypothyroidism can slow metabolism and make weight loss harder, so the plan focuses on steady fat loss through the right portions, protein, fibre, sleep and activity, rather than crash diets that leave you more tired. With hyperthyroidism, the focus is on maintaining a healthy weight, muscle and energy while your doctor manages the condition.
