3 morning drinks for hyperthyroidism

Here are three homemade and natural drinks that we can prepare in a simple way. With it we can improve thyroid function and alleviate symptoms, in particular hyperthyroidism.

For the same reason, people who suffer from hypothyroidism should avoid them or consult their doctor. These ingredients could make your symptoms worse.

1. Radish and lemon juice

This juice is especially recommended for people with hyperthyroidism. The radish is rich in goitrogenic, a chemical compound that blocks absorption of iodine.

As we already know, in hyperthyroidism this gland works excessively. Therefore, there is an overexcitation in which the iodine acts as a stimulant. It is necessary to regulate it and, therefore, certain vegetables can be of great help to us.

This radish-based drink will help us to inhibit the secretion of thyroid hormone. In turn, lemon will be useful to detoxify and mineralize our body. In addition, vitamin C will help us relieve headaches and strengthen the immune system.

Ingredients

• 2 radishes
• The juice of 1 lemon
• 1 glass of water (200 ml)

Preparation

• It’s really easy to prepare. The first thing we will do is wash the two radishes well and then cut them into two parts.
• Take them to the blender along with the glass of water to get a homogeneous juice.
• Now we just need to combine this drink with lemon juice.
• We warn you that the flavor is intense. Take it as a “natural medicine”. It is rich in vitamins and very detoxifying.

2. Infusion of mint and lemon balm

Melissa, lemon balm or lemon balm is one of nature’s most appreciated plants for its relaxing effect. In addition, it also stands out for its ability to decrease the activity of the thyroid gland.

• It is important not to consume this infusion in excess. It is enough to include it in our diet two or three times a week. If we drink more than one cup a day it could interfere with our medical treatment.
• The lemon balm, together with the mint, will help us regulate the nerves and enjoy a more relaxed rest. In addition, it also helps to inhibit the binding of TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) to the thyroid tissues.

However, if at any time you have doubts about whether to consume this infusion or not, consult your doctor. Now, if we drink about 3 cups a week it will not be a problem.

This infusion will come in handy to start the day free of tension and relaxed. If you have had a bad night it will also allow you to relieve the headache and any muscle overload.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon of dried lemon balm (10 g)
• A mint leaf
• 1 glass of water (200 ml)
• 1 teaspoon of honey (7.5 g)

Preparation

• To prepare this natural drink for hyperthyroidism you only need a bag of lemon balm ready to infuse and a little dried mint (with a small leaf is enough).
• First, bring that glass of water to a boil and, when it comes to a boil, add the mint and lemon balm.
• Let it infuse for 15 minutes and rest for another 10. Sweeten with honey and enjoy. It is delicious.
• Always remember that lemon balm is not recommended in case we suffer from hypothyroidism.

3. Strawberry and peach juice

Third, we present a delicious juice. Tasty, nutritious, purifying and very suitable to regulate the thyroid function in case we suffer from hyperthyroidism.

The reason for the benefit of consuming both peaches and strawberries resides once again in the goitrogens. These  regulate the hormonal gland and reduce the absorption of iodine.

Ingredients

• 5 strawberries
• 1 glass of water (200 ml)

Preparation

• To prepare it, you just have to wash the fruits well and then cut them in half to facilitate blending.
• Add a glass of water to get a lighter juice and enjoy including it in your breakfast. It will suit you very well.
