4 Myths and 4 Truths About Nutrition and Hypothyroidism:

❌ Myth: Weight changes rely solely on thyroid hormones, so there's no need to change your diet yet.

✅ Truth: While having your thyroid levels back on track is very important, starting a balanced eating plan can lead to more sustainable habits. Nutrition is key for long-term success!

❌ Myth: Cutting out gluten will fix hypothyroidism.

✅ Truth: Gluten does not affect thyroid function for most people. However, some individuals with autoimmune thyroid disease such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis may also have celiac disease, where gluten avoidance is medically necessary. For everyone else, removing gluten isn’t required.

❌ Myth: You need special ‘thyroid foods’ or supplements.

✅ Truth: No single food or supplement can cure hypothyroidism. What does help support thyroid health is a balanced eating pattern that includes nutrients like iodine, selenium, zinc, and iron. Most people can meet these needs through regular meals and varied foods. Supplements can be beneficial to help fill in any gaps, but are not mandatory.

❌ Myth: The only tests you need to get checked are thyroid hormones.

✅ Truth: It’s helpful to check other hormones like insulin, cortisol, and leptin too. These tests can also provide valuable insights.

Feeling like it’s time for another cup of coffee already? ☕🥱☕😵‍💫☕

Do you often wake up tired or find yourself hitting the snooze button a few too many times? 💔 You might be dealing with some imbalances in your cortisol and melatonin levels.

Here are 5 simple tips to help reset your circadian rhythm and improve your sleep!

1️⃣ Avoid late-night snacking for better rest.

Tip: Try sipping herbal tea after dinner. This can signal the start of your nighttime routine. If you are hungry, grab something with protein, so it is more satiating.

2️⃣ Set a regular sleep and wake schedule.

Tip: Begin by waking up at the same time each day. This can make it easier to find a sleep time that works for you.

3️⃣ Limit caffeine to before 2 PM.

Tip: To help you remember, send yourself a fun reminder (like an invitation) to enjoy your last cup of coffee before the cutoff time.

4️⃣ Dim the lights an hour before bedtime.

Tip: Use an automatic dimmer on your home lighting, phone, and computer screens to help your body start producing melatonin. Many smartphones have this feature!

5️⃣ Get 10-20 minutes of morning sunlight.

Tip: If you want some sunshine before dawn, consider using a light that mimics UV rays as part of your morning routine.

Find your energy again with these 5 sleep hygiene tips.

Eating “healthy” but still feeling worse with endo? 🙋🏽‍♀️

Here’s the catch: 🚫 not all veggies are harmless when you have endometriosis.

Up to 90% of people with endo also experience IBS-like gut issues—and certain high-FODMAP foods can trigger symptoms.

Common culprits include:

• Garlic & onions
• Certain beans
• Cruciferous veggies (like broccoli, cauliflower, and brussels sprouts)

These foods can trigger bloating, inflammation, and pain.

🧅🥦🫘🧄

A short-term low-FODMAP approach can help identify which foods are best to avoid, giving many women more clarity and fewer flare-ups.

Bottom line: eating “healthy” is about what works for your body—not just what looks good on paper.

Feeling tired? Let’s talk about thyroid fatigue and asking for help in the kitchen.

When your thyroid hormone levels drop, even simple tasks can feel tough. You might find yourself moving slowly, like a snail. 🐌

To nurture your energy, focus on sleep, rest, regular meals, and staying hydrated.

Tip: Until you and your doctor find the right treatment - and even afterward - don’t hesitate to ask for help.

📲 Reach out to your friends and family. Let them know you need to take it easy for a while. See if they can lend a hand with important tasks.

Focusing on nutrition is a great way to ask for support without pressure. Here are some helpful ideas:

✅ Ask a friend to prep grains and starches for the week. Or they could double the meat of their own meal prep and send half home to you.
✅ See if someone can help by cooking a few low-effort meals for nights when you’re too tired.
✅ Ask another friend to grab some frozen fruits and veggies during their next grocery trip and drop them off for you.
✅ You (or someone else) can also prepare breakfast sandwiches, overnight oats, and fresh-cut fruit in advance!

Take care of yourself, even when you’re feeling worn out!

🍝 Have you ever wondered if a big dinner gives you more energy the next day?
Actually, it might not be the best choice! While you might have more time to enjoy your meals later in the day, your body tends to digest food better at other times.

⌚ For the best energy throughout your day, try having your largest meal earlier than dinner.

When the sun goes down, our brains start to prepare for rest. Eating most of your calories at dinner can make it harder for your body to digest efficiently at night.

🕛 Mid-day is when your digestion works its best, so focusing on your bigger meals during that time can really help boost your daily energy levels!

Want to optimize your diet even more? Book a consultation with one of our Dietitians to find out the easiest ways to eat for your schedule.

Should you prioritize certain nutrients?

Absolutely, and doing so can protect your long-term health. 🛡

The two most common deficiencies for women as they age are 1️⃣ calcium and 2️⃣ vitamin D. As estrogen declines, its natural bone-protective effect weakens, raising the risk of osteoporosis.

🥬🥛 Calcium – the building block of strong bones.

Sources: leafy greens, dairy, tofu, sesame seeds, fortified milks (almond, oat).

☀️🍄‍🟫🥛🎣 Vitamin D – makes calcium usable by your body.

Sources: sunlight (30 min, a few times a week), mushrooms, dairy, soy, eggs, and fish like salmon, sardines, or rainbow trout.

🤩 Together, these nutrients support bone strength and lower fracture risk—and bonus: many of these foods also provide protein, another key for healthy aging.

➡️ Always check your labs with your healthcare provider to monitor your levels and rule out absorption issues.

Enjoy your nighttime routine once more!

You can sleep better and drift off more easily by including these tasty foods in your diet.

To help you relax and stick to a regular bedtime, consider adding foods rich in magnesium, like:

🥗 Leafy greens
🌱 Pumpkin seeds
🍫 Dark chocolate

For healthy serotonin and melatonin production, try including foods rich in tryptophan, such as:

🥣 Oats
🍳 Eggs
🍗 Turkey

To support your brain’s chemistry and energy levels, enjoy foods rich in B vitamins, like:

🥩 Beef, chicken, and salmon
🌻 Sunflower seeds and nutritional yeast
🥔 Potatoes and bananas

Finally, to boost your mood, think about adding foods rich in omega-3 fats, including:

🥢 Mackerel, salmon, and tuna
🥯 Chia and h**p seeds
🥬 Dark leafy greens

Head to the grocery store, pick up some of these foods, and drift off into a pleasant sleep tonight.
