Hyperthyroidism, known as hyperthyroidism, is a clinical syndrome caused by excessive production of thyroid hormones. Therefore, hyperthyroidism patients are advised not to consume or consume less sea fish to avoid excessive synthesis of thyroid hormones, which is not conducive to the control of hyperthyroidism. Hyperthyroidism is a wasting disease and the body is in a high metabolic state. If hyperthyroidism patients want to replenish high quality protein, they can increase the intake of high quality protein such as milk, eggs and lean meat. Hyperthyroidism patients are advised to pay attention to their daily diet, which should ensure adequate nutrition and low iodine, etc.
In addition, patients with hyperthyroidism should consume more fresh vegetables and fruits to replenish vitamins and drink more water to replenish water lost from diarrhea and sweating. Patients with hyperthyroidism complicated by heart disease should avoid drinking large amounts of water to avoid aggravating edema and heart failure. Dietary contraindications include avoiding foods with high iodine content such as nori, kelp, oysters, etc., cautiously consuming cabbage, kale and other foods that can easily lead to goiter, and prohibiting the intake of stimulating foods and beverages such as strong tea and coffee to avoid aggravating symptoms such as heartburn and insomnia.
If hyperthyroidism patients accidentally ingest sea fish and experience discomfort, it may be an aggravation of hyperthyroidism, so it is recommended to check thyroid function at the endocrinology department in time to avoid delaying the disease.
