Hypothyroidism is also called hypothyroidism. After getting sick, patients have insufficient thyroid hormones, which leads to slow metabolism, which is very easy to cause constipation, so that many patients with hypothyroidism have this trend, and in severe cases, there will be edema obesity, which has a lot to do with their usual diet. Therefore, Wang Kezhen, director of Beijing Beicheng Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said: These foods.

1. Instant noodles

Everyone is familiar with instant noodles. Various types on the market, such as dry noodles and instant noodles, are not only delicious, but also popular with many people. However, the food that should be avoided for hypothyroidism patients is high in fat (because it is fried when it is made), and soup powder contains more monosodium glutamate, so it is better to eat less.

2. Fried dough sticks

For patients with hypothyroidism, fried dough sticks are also one of the foods that can't be touched. Because the fat of fried dough sticks is very high, just like Chinese French fries, each fried dough stick has 22 calories, most of which are also from fat.

3. Sausage

Sausage is a food that patients with hypothyroidism can't eat. In fact, the heat in sausage will cause a certain amount of fat. In fact, 25 calories is equivalent to a hamburger or a bowl of rice, and the fat of bacon is also high.

4. Barbecued sausage

As we all know, sausage is high in fat, sodium (a part of salt) and nitrate (it will cause cancer if eaten too much). Most office workers eat sausages, and the fat contained in frying with oil is higher. Some people like to eat barbecue sausages, which are browned but contain carcinogens.

5. French fries

French fries are carbohydrates. Although there is not so much fat, frying them into French fries is another matter. A small bag of French fries contains 22 calories and 12 grams of fat, which is almost equivalent to a hamburger.

6. Freshly squeezed orange juice with sugar

Don't think that drinking orange juice is much more beneficial than drinking soda. Just look at the calories. These orange juice with sugar is more calories than soda, and the sugar is more than soda. Even pure fresh orange juice, a cup of water squeezed by three oranges has 15 calories.

Patients with hypothyroidism often have swollen hands and feet due to mucinous edema. Salty food will cause water and sodium retention and aggravate edema, so they should avoid eating salty food, such as salted meat, vegetables and eggs.

2. Eat mild food, and eat less cold food

Vegetables: leeks can warm the yang and strengthen the spleen.

melons and fruits: walnut meat can tonify kidney and warm yang, and patients with hypothyroidism should eat more.

meat: beef, mutton and dog meat are warm and nourishing, and can be eaten in winter.

cold and cold are forbidden: herbal tea, chrysanthemum tea, cold drink, watermelon, bitter gourd, etc. should be avoided.
