QUESTION:
How can I prevent thyroid problems?
ANSWER:
There are lots of natural preventative health measures to lower your risk of developing
a thyroid condition. Focus on getting proper nutrition, balancing your hormones,
and encouraging healthy adrenal function by reducing stress. Nutrition is probably
the most important player when it comes to the thyroid. Nutritional deficiencies,
particularly with regard to iodine, selenium, and zinc, can contribute to poor thyroid
health. It’s also important to be aware of possible food sensitivities, which can
impair thyroid function, leading to other health issues commonly seen in association
with thyroid dysfunction.
