I am diabetic please guide me diet

Hello Sudhir Ji,

Vitamin C-rich fruits like oranges are good for immunity but should be consumed in moderation, as they can be acidic and may irritate the stomach in some cases. To help with recovery, focus on a balanced diet with hydrating fluids, anti-inflammatory foods (ginger, turmeric), and lean proteins. Avoid processed foods, excessive dairy, and alcohol, as they can hinder healing. Always follow your doctor's advice for dietary modifications based on your health condition.

Hello Jannat Ji,

While a personalized diet plan should be created with your dietician & nutritionist, here are some general tips for managing high TSH levels

Dos:

1. Include Iodine-Rich Foods: Iodine is essential for thyroid function. Use iodized salt and include foods like eggs, dairy, and fish.
2. Eat Selenium-Rich Foods: Selenium helps in thyroid hormone production. Brazil nuts, sunflower seeds, and tuna are good options.
3. Consume Zinc: Foods like pumpkin seeds, lentils, and chickpeas are rich in zinc, which supports thyroid health.
4. Fiber-Rich Foods: Whole grains, vegetables, and fruits help prevent weight gain and constipation, which are common in hypothyroidism.

Don'ts:

1. Avoid Excessive Soy Products: Soy can interfere with thyroid hormone absorption. Limit tofu, soy milk, and other soy-based foods.
2. Limit Cruciferous Vegetables: Broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage can interfere with iodine absorption when eaten raw, so cook them before consuming.
3. Stay Away from Processed Foods: They often contain high levels of sodium and unhealthy fats, which can negatively affect thyroid function.
4. Reduce Sugary Foods and Caffeine: Both can worsen fatigue and hormone imbalances.

Consultation for Personalized Diet:

Consult with your doctor or a nutritionist for a personalized diet plan and better management of your thyroid levels.
