Doctor shares 1-month plan to support thyroid function through diet and lifestyle
Thyroid function can be supported through key dietary and lifestyle changes. While it may seem like thyroid disorders are purely hormonal, they also indicate deeper issues, highlighting the importance of overall health, from gut to liver functions. Bringing important changes in lifestyle habits may help support resetting the thyroid naturally.
In an interview with HT Lifestyle, Dr Narendra Shetty, medical director at Kshemavana, shared important insights on how holistic lifestyle changes can support thyroid function and promote natural healing.
He said, 'Thyroid disorders in women are not only hormonal imbalances; they are a reflection of a deeper, improper lifestyle. It is important to focus on key pillars such as food and nutrition, gut health, sleep and restoration, mind-body connection, and energy balance. With the right corrections, the thyroid gland can be reset naturally.'
