Low Thyroid diet questions

[SSmile]

Got some questions concerning my mom and her low thyroid. Shes currently gaining weight because of her crappy diet + lack of exercise but she also has a low thyroid so would there be any specific foods to have or not have because of it? Should she be having med carbs high protein high fats ? Any help is appreciated !

Are you saying she is hypothyroid? Why not just medicate her condition? There are medications out there for hypo and hyper thyroidism.

What is her TSH at?

yea as far as i am aware there are no dietary restrictions for hypothyroidism..

she just needs to get on t3/t4 and clean up her diet
