Although most of my patients eat animal protein, over the years, I've also worked with many vegans and vegetarians, and the truth is that it can be more challenging to restore your health as a vegetarian or vegan. The good news is that regardless of your reasons for choosing a diet that avoids animal products, you can still save your thyroid if you pay attention to a few key areas.

Today, I’m sharing how to overcome the main challenges vegans and vegetarians face in their thyroid healing journeys and my recommendations for supporting your thyroid health with mindful planning.

In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- The importance of adequate protein intake
- Common nutrient deficiencies among vegans and vegetarians
- My testing recommendations
- Why it’s essential to focus on food quality
- How grains and legumes can affect gut health
- Iodine concerns for vegans and vegetarians
- My dietary recommendations for vegans and vegetarians




As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
