429: When a Thyroid-Friendly Diet Backfires: The Common Mistake That Can Stand in the Way of Healthy Thyroid Function w/ Ginny Maher
If you have Hashimoto’s or hypothyroidism (low thyroid), you’ve probably heard about certain foods you should avoid. But what if a thyroid-friendly diet is less about cutting out gluten, dairy, and other foods, and more about making sure your thyroid has the right nutrients it needs to thrive? In this episode, we’re challenging common thyroid diet rules and exploring foods for thyroid health, plus how to build simple, nutrient-dense meals without turning meals into another source of stress. We’ll also discuss controversial thoughts on thyroid medication, why your TSH doesn’t tell the whole story, and the surprising connections between low thyroid function and chronic skin issues. Ginny Mahar, FMCHC joins me on the show. She is a Le Cordon Bleu-trained chef, Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach, creator of Hypothyroid Chef, and author of the THYROID30® Cookbook . After her own diagnoses of hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s, Ginny combined her culinary background with nutrition and coaching to help others make thyroid-friendly eating practical, nourishing, and delicious. ⭐️ Mentioned in This Episode: - See all the references http://www.skinterrupt.com/429 - Get The Thyroid30 Cookbook https://a.co/d/0fkhQZUN - Join me in the conversation at http://instagram.com/jenniferfugo - Stop My Rashes FREE Root Cause Quiz - https://www.skinterrupt.com/stopmyrashes-pod - Fix your skin using Jennifer’s method (trusted by 900+ skin rash warriors)!
