5 Thyroid Boosting Fruits (EAT THESE!)
ฝัง

- Wait, aren't fruits harmful because they contain sugar?! Not by a long shot. Fruits are not only healthy for your entire body, they can also help support your thyroid gland.
If you are someone with thyroid disease, or if you are just looking to support your thyroid to keep it healthy, this information is for you.
Fruits work to help your overall health by providing a natural source of fiber, phytochemicals, vitamins and minerals, and polyphenols.
These ingredients help your body fight of inflammation, protect your cells, help with weight loss, and so much more.
When it comes to your thyroid, a few fruits stand above others.
These include:
1. Blueberries. Packed full of nutrients, blueberries clock in at 85 calories per serving. These are low carb and have some of the best health benefits of any fruit.
2. Goji berries. Goji berries act as both a fruit and an adaptogen which means they can help with adrenal fatigue, vitality, and cortisol imbalance.
3. Avocados. This fruit is high in healthy fats which makes it unusual among those listed here. Healthy fats and fiber is the name of the game here.
4. Kiwis. These fruits contain huge amounts of vitamins and minerals in each serving beating out some of the more common fruits you know of.
5. Coconut. This high fat fruit is a great source of medium chain triglycerides which makes it ideal if weight gain is a problem for you.

Thank you 😊
These fruits are so expensive. I could not afford these daily.
@@rondie.x53 you could grow some blueberry bushes……I also love blackcurrants…..and are very easy to grow……
@@Lucky-wt6fg yes, mine are in the ground and hopefully will be harvesting next summer!!!
@@rondie.x53 I buy frozen blueberries from Costco for about $10/bag which is about 71 cents per serving. Oh and they are organic too!!!! I noticed they started carrying Gogi berries, haven’t tried those yet
I consume blueberries on a daily basis and help me maintain my inflammation in check
Thank you Dr. Childs for making this video. Every time I hear someone claim that fruits are villains, they lose credibility with me. My grandmother lived to be 105. She wasn’t on any medication, and she lived pain free. She was a big fruit eater, and she didn’t like vegetables. One of her daily fruits, and one of her favorites, were oranges.
Interesting. I'd be a Frutarian if I though I could sustain that kind of a diet. I'm with you, you bash fruit, you lose all credibility with me.
Fruits are good just know what is best for your blood group.
I have had thyroid problems since 2017 and am unable to find a Dr to work with. All of them just say "take your meds". Since finding your channel I have more information in a few weeks than I have had in years. NEW SUBSCRIBER from Australia.
Hi i take Armor natural hormone in my case 1 gram for 15 years and I'm very happy with it. ❤❤❤❤
My doctor diagnosed me with hyperthyroidism in March, I was redirected to a specialist and she diagnosed me with Graves' disease two weeks ago, she only mentioned to eat Brazil nuts, I even asked is there anything else and she didn't say much but to take my meds. My mom suggested I contact our cousin, who is a nutritionist, when I say God sent! She suggested everything you've mentioned in this video and some!
Blueberries are flown halfway round the world and covered in pesticide for us in Europe
Give them a good washing. I lived in France for a little while and regardless of what the EU said, they did what they wanted and they refused to put pesticide on fruit or veg. I loved that about living there.
I buy lots of blueberries locally and freeze them.
@@vallang4832 Good idea|!
@@bluecurlygirl mmmmm I haven't found any local ones where I am. Maybe I should grow my own!
And covered with sugar, artificial sweetner, preservatives
Sir you were slaying in this video barely breathing but the info just so NATURAL AND PURE.THANK YOU ALWAYS WELL NOTED.
I do agree totally. I would say all or most tangy or sour fruits are low glycemic. Avocado and beet leaves are the potassium safe green plus more fito nutrients. Just great .
I've never had goji berries but looking forward to trying them. As for everything else on that list, I love them all. So happy after watching this video. Thank you Dr. Childs 😊
I love Goji berries! They're nice sprinkled on a salad.
@@ceilconstante640 Oh thank you for that. I'll have to give it a try so. Really looking forward to them now as that sounds absolutely delicious. I'm in Ireland so it'll probably only be the dried ones I can get locally. I love trying new foods so really excited about this one (is that sad that I'm so excited about goji berries?). Thanks again.
Goji berries are delicious in hot tea.
1. Blueberries
2. Gogoberries

Thank you for this information! I’ve followed your advice to the letter and feel my health and energy recovering swiftly in just two short weeks.
Thank you sir for putting so much beneficial info out there! Thyroid issues are actually pretty easy to treat naturally I share these tips with anyone I know who are going through over or under active thyroid.
Also love your hair it’s very flattering( I’m a hairstylist not a shameless flirt)😊.
What information can you provide?
I do OMAD low carbs thank you for the video, I do add avocado sometimes but I didn't know which other fruits I could eat.
So far from November 178lbs to 141 as of today.
Your videos, and your supplements are saving my life.
My target is 130lbs by the end of July.
Thank you so much.❤❤
Congratulations. That's a fantastic weight loss. Best of luck in reaching your goal. You're doing brilliantly.
That's great. Which of his supplements are you taking?
I do OMAD every other day and have lost 15 pounds in 3 weeks. 15 more pounds to go, yahoo
What is your regimen exactly? What supplements are you taking?
@@jodene78 daily thyroid multivitamin, adrenal reset
My thyroid only improves when I remove all plants from my diet, along with removing fluoride from my drinking water. I switched to carnivore two years ago this August, and the first year I stayed stable, with in increase in medication, which hasn't happened in all the years since I've been diagnosed. Then about a year ago I also removed fluoride and they've actually had to reduce my medication three times, which definitely has never happened. I've been eating "healthy" since 2015 when I was first diagnosed, and it was just a pattern of getting my numbers stable then the next time they were up again and they had to increase my dosage. Now they're decreasing it. Of course everyone is different, so I'm not saying this is the answer for everyone, but it's certainly been the answer for me.
And I'll add that my thyroid wasn't the reason I switched to carnivore, nor was my bipolar disorder or anxiety. I switched due to severe digestive issues and very severe bloating. But carnivore addressed all of my digestive issues AND completely reversed all of my mental illness symptoms, plus got ride of a bunch of other more minor things, and has greatly improved my hypothyroidism. It's been nothing short of a miracle for me.
A three year carnivore diet absolutely tanked my thyroid.
@@tanyasydney2235 I'm sorry carnivore didn't work for you. Although I do find it fascinating how different we all are.
This is something I’ve been debating on trying out
@@tanyasydney2235Pls what is your blood group?
Pls what is your blood group?
I am fruits lover and I have hypothyroidism. I do yoga , méditation . I eat only organic vegetables and fruits 🫶😍♥️
What fruits exactly?
Thank you so much for this infomation.......not pills. ♥
Dito for the blueberries thank you zcmartz n you too Dr berry ❤😮 to both of ya god speed be safe shalom🎉marcella
Do these fruit work their magic if I no longer have a thyroid? I have a hard time with digesting fiber. Thank you for all your informative content!
Try malted barley syrup for your digestive problems also try fresh pineapple juice for the gut
I eat blueberries, avocado and kiwis everyday. I love them.
I have coconut water daily, Apple green only, brazil nuts, banana, tomato, blueberry and strawberry. In my diet.
Are you on hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism?
Thank you Doctor Child's for the information. God bless 🙏
My doctor only eats wild blueberries. He loves polyphenols especially green apple skins. However, he doesn’t want me to have fruit. I do have lemons and limes.
Great Video Dr.
Its helping us
Pineapple is fantastic for gut health as it contains bromelain.
*I know I'm dyslexic any everything, but I thought it was spelt S U G A R; I think that's 5 letters lol, unless you are being cool and SUGA lol. Nice video again, cheers!* 💪👍

@@Tip_Top Hi just curious is that a Bengal cat in your profile pic?
@@allison471 no, just a tortoiseshell moggy. Beautiful isn't she? She's called Topsy
@@Tip_Top Absolutely gorgeous! Looks alot like my Bengal cat 😊
@@Tip_Top She's gorgeous. We lost a little tortie last year. She was just over a year old. Funniest little creature ever. She could actually say a few words like Mam, Out, 'Way (she frequently threatened to run away if she had to wait more than one minute for food) and Yeah. She was chasing a fly round the kitchen, I went to the loo and she was on the floor when I came back in. She must have slipped and hit the radiator. Broke her little neck. Ah I miss her so much. My little Trixie Belle. We now have two little darlings (tyrants at times!) - a brother and sister. Cats have such huge personalities. Great fun.
I love avocados ❤ but what about Papaya and Mangos? I usually eat those plus cassava and plantains and Chayote squash I have IBS and some fruits and Vegetables like Brócoli and Califlower just don't agree with my stomach 😢
Dr. Talk about relation between thyroid and Endometriosis.
Grapefruits ,ok? Love them
Kiwis are high in oxalates.
Thank you, wonderful info, and yum to be able to eat!
Sorry I meant Dr westing guess I have got too many drs in my life 😂❤ god speed n thank you again n again 😮😮😅 marcella
Still not correct lol
Sounds great to me doc. ,Just one thing what about all the phytoestrogens they keep telling about and said to avoid all these fruits & grains etc. ???
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP
1.gogi berries
2. avocado
3. blueberries
4.kiwi
5. coconut.
So glad you make videos
Thank you for the list. I suffer from vulvodynia and pain in my eyes when consuming extremely high oxalic acid foods like kiwi. It's a glass like substance as oxalic acid binds to all the minerals and is also neurotoxic.
Thanks again Dr. Childs. 😮
Goji berries grow in Zone 9🎉
Just got one to plant, but planned for my Chicken pasture without realizing it is a nightshade! Nightshade fruits are fine for chickens, but their greens can kill them!💔
Thank you Dr Childs
God bless you
Are frozen berries as good since they're a lot cheaper?
Absolutely! Choose organic to avoid pesticides and glyphosates.
Thanks dr for the great video ❤❤
Awesome information! Thank you!
Where can I reach you
Well, I do eat a good bit of blueberries, but not much of the others yet
Yup the 4 letter word sugar
Dr Childs, could you PLEASE do a on gluten free for like brown rice flour, white rice flour, and potato starch? I’m uncertain if this a good idea to use.
What do you mean sugar is a four letter word?
Hello sir my name is Priyanka i m 31 years old. Suffering from sugar bp n thyroid but all these are under control but I am facing hair fall problems a lot please suggest me how can I control
Hair breakage means overdosed on meds, he just covered this in another video
I grow Gigi berries here in So. California
I'm allergic to kiwi. The dermatologist told me kiwi allergy is fairly common.
Thanks sir please. Sir tell us l have Tyroid Nodule in this Condition which thing we avoid❤
Five letter word doc. Sugar has five letters !!!!!!!!’
I'm going to make me some guacamole with blueberries...
I tried 3 times keto and I didn't do well but low cards OMAD I thrive.
Do you have any idea why?
I didn't do well with keto either, I don't have a thyroid bit I don't do well with OMAD either
Sugar id 5 letter wird but your videos are great.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-letter_word
So if goji berries are a nightshade fruit and a person with autoimmune issues like a thyroid problem, why would you eat goji berries!?
Tomatoes are also in the nightshade family
Thank you.
Excellent comments about the importance of fruits! And about the (Butcherbox-sponsored) keto proponents... 😂
You cannot eat blueberries. Allergic to blueberries.
5 letters in sugar😊
I love Blueberries.
What about those who avoid plant foods high in oxylates? All carbohydrates break down to sugar 🙊 Sugar is inflammatory and not beneficial for our immune system.
Avocados are allowed 😊
Absolutely! I have Hashimoto and feel very good eating an avocado almost every day.
I know right! That makes me so happy. I love avos and they keep my restless legs at bay at night.
Can we take moringa 4 hrs after thyroid meds?
Excuse me but the 4 letter word sugar, is 5 letters not 4.
For many years d’int eat Kiwis, because they told me it was not good for Hypothyroid. We never nos the truth.
Sugar is 5 Letters
Sugar is a 5 letter word....
Goji berries are ok for hashimotos ?
did u call sugar a 4 letter word?
Is potassium good with hashimotos disease??
Do I care about this if I'm already on levothyroxine?
Sugar has 5 letters
Sugar is a five-letter word! 😅
Great I had Hashimoto forever, and now bone loss from the meds, and blood around my ankles doc poked my sore ankles said if it shows white dots it is fine,, what!!!!!!! something is leaking what the heck now swelling if to tight socks have not seen a doc in over 1yr being doc left clinic, and it is a clinic in town, not real docs, Pa RP no doc ,, now got chronic eyelid swelling had H-peloria hep A you name it,,,,, I need a doc holy cow I feel like a big cooty bug and always bone tired
Is it true that eating calcium with avocado reduces the oxalates in the digestive system?
So does pineapples
What is a night shade
Is berberine a fruit?
Are these other fruits good for weight loss/toning?
I think I have a slight reaction to berberine, I’d like natural ways to feel and look better.
I’ve only had a low dose berberine supplement a couple of times and it seems like it effects my neck/throat, like a swallow itchy feeling.
What do you mean when you say night shade group?
Y’all are being petty. “Four letter word” just means bad in general. Of course he knows sugar has 5.
Saturated fats are good for us
4 letter word? "Sugar"🤔
im totally allergic to goji berries
Selenium+iodine
Does Dr. Childs have invisalign in the video? I was actually contemplating getting it myself but I read that the plastic or whatever in it can be problematic for Hashi's, also dental treatments in general can trigger it.
What dental treatments trigger thiroid problems???
A four letter word .......sugar ?
You went to Medical School and you think SUGAR is a 4-letter word??????? Good Grief!! You should have learned that in 4th grade!
Coconut meat, 4 oz fresh every day, for six weeks, even working out with heavy weights 5x a week, made me fatter!!!!!
😮 fatter or increased muscle mass?
How much blueberries
As much blueberries as desired
He said 1 cup a day. They are very expensive. 😢
@@rondie.x53 if you buy frozen they are not expensive
@@rondie.x53 70cents per serving for organic from Costco
One cup full a day otherwise it could be a toilet day all day if you get my drift. 😂
I only like Avocados & Kiwi
5 letter word
you missed the point...
@@carolmaplesden916 no, I didn't
@@julieellis6793 your comment says otherwise
He's reading a teleprompter
U missed papaya n mango.
4 letter word - SUGAR????? Sorry Doc. You're a doctor?? Jeez😮
Most fruits have a low glycemic index (GI) because of their fructose and fiber content. Melons and pineapple have medium GI values as do some dried fruits such as dates, raisins and sweetened cranberries. Overall, fruit is encouraged when using the glycemic index to guide food choices-so enjoy.
He means, its ‘shit’, you seem very bright though
S U G A R. 5 letters.
Lol, a four letter word is in reference to a swear word, not the number of letters in the word.
@@drwestinchilds sugar is taboo in terms of health.
LOL!!!!@@drwestinchilds
