Save My Thyroid: Healing Tips for Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's

Never Eat These Foods with Hyperthyroidism

Dr. Eric Osansky DC, IFMCP Season 1 Episode 211

If you’re newly diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, start here.

This episode lays out a foundational overview of foods that are best avoided when healing from hyperthyroidism or Graves’ disease. I cover the “big ones” like gluten, dairy, refined sugar, alcohol, and grains, as well as the less obvious culprits. I also explain the reasoning behind these recommendations, including gut permeability, immune reactivity, and long-term thyroid stability. You’ll leave with a clearer sense of which foods might be interfering with healing, even if they don’t cause obvious symptoms.

If you’re overwhelmed with conflicting diet advice and want a grounded place to start, this episode is for you.
