What Is a Thyroid Test and How Can Ayurveda Help in Supporting Thyroid Health? - #15020
I recently got a thyroid test done because I’ve been feeling tired all the time, gaining weight, and experiencing hair thinning. My doctor said that my thyroid levels were a bit off, and I’m now looking for ways to improve my thyroid health. While my doctor suggested medication, I’m wondering if there’s anything I can do to support my thyroid naturally alongside the treatment. I’ve heard that the thyroid plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism and energy, and I want to know how Ayurveda can help in supporting healthy thyroid function. Are there any Ayurvedic herbs, like Ashwagandha or Guggulu, that are known to balance thyroid levels? Could these herbs help in improving symptoms like fatigue and weight gain that I’ve been struggling with? I’m also curious if there are dietary changes in Ayurveda that can support thyroid health. Should I be focusing on certain nutrients or avoiding certain foods that could negatively affect my thyroid function? Has anyone here had an imbalance in thyroid levels and found that Ayurvedic remedies helped in managing the condition and improving their energy? What herbs, foods, or lifestyle changes worked for you in balancing thyroid function naturally?
