Indian Diet Plan for PCOS with Thyroid (Management and Weight loss)

Last Updated on January 12, 2020 | RD, Payal Banka (Registered Dietitian) 26 Comments

Thyroid disorders and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are two of the most common endocrine disorders in the general population. As we have read in our previous articles, diet and lifestyle changes are very effective in managing hormonal imbalance. Let us now see this Indian diet plan for PCOS with thyroid (management and weight loss). Two conditions that often appear in combination as well as make weight and health a worrisome issue.

Indian Diet Plan for PCOS with Thyroid (Management and Weight loss)

Before we move on to the Indian diet plan for PCOS with thyroid (management and weight loss), let us first see the common problems that are faced in Pcos and thyroid patient.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome / PCOS :

Pcos brings with it a lot of health issues. But the good part is that most of it can be managed with food.

PCOS increases your risk for:

  • High blood pressure.
  • Heart disease.
  • Diabetes.
  • Endometrial cancer.

The problems of Pcos that can be managed with foods are:

  • A good diet can help you with weight loss.
  • Decrease high cholesterol levels.
  • Manage hyperinsulinemia.
  • Manage skin issues as well as acne.
  • Irregular menses.

Thyroid:

The thyroid hormone helps control the speed of your metabolism. The faster your metabolism, the more calories your body will burn at rest.

People who have hypothyroidism make less thyroid hormone. Hence, they have a slower metabolism as well as burn fewer calories at rest. Thus, people find it difficult to lose weight.

Having a slow metabolism comes with several health risks. It may leave you tired, increase your blood cholesterol levels as well as make it harder for you to lose weight.

  • Diet tips for thyroid patients.

Having thyroid increases the risk of:

  • Disorders related to obesity.
  • Thyroid related cancer.

The problems of the thyroid that you can manage with foods:

  • Weight loss.
  • Inflammation.

The Interrelation Between PCOS And Hypothyroid:

Although the cause of hypothyroidism and PCOS is completely different, They are interrelated as well as they have many features in common.

  • Hypothyroidism not only manifests an increase in ovarian volume but it also brings about cystic changes in ovaries.
  • It is also observed that thyroid disorders are more common in women with PCOS as compared to the normal population.
  • Hypothyroidism leads to increased prolactin that inhibits ovulation.
  • Also, hypothyroidism results in increased collagen deposition in ovaries which leads to thickening of ovary walls.
  • High fat deposition, insulin resistance, as well as compromised autoimmunity seem to play a complex role in connecting these two disorders.

The association of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and autoimmune thyroid disease is increasingly being recognized. The exact nature of this link has not been elucidated yet. But both syndromes share certain common characteristics, risk factors, as well as pathophysiological abnormalities.

Indian Diet Plan for PCOS with Thyroid:

So now we know about the interrelation between PCOS and hypothyroid, as well as their risk factors. Let us move towards the solution through food. Before checking the actual Indian diet plan for PCOS with thyroid, let us first see the dietary modifications that will be required.

Diet Tips for PCOS with Thyroid

A low glycaemic index (GI) food:

The body digests foods with a low GI more slowly. Thus, they do not cause insulin levels to rise as quickly as other foods. Foods in a low GI diet include whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, fruits, and starchy vegetables. Add other unprocessed as well as low-carbohydrate foods. These foods not only help in weight reduction but also in improving cardiac health.

 

High fiber foods:

Food rich in fiber helps in raising the metabolic rate of an individual. This not only helps in reducing weight but also to control cholesterol levels. Include whole grains, fruits, vegetables, as well as legumes.

 

An anti-inflammatory food:

Diet high in antioxidants relieves stress-related inflammation in the body. Antioxidant-rich foods include different colored vegetables, leafy greens, green tea, citrus, as well as high fiber fruits. Infused water also helps reduce inflammation.

  • Delicious sources of Antioxidants.
  • Simple Recipes of Infused water for weight loss.

 

The DASH diet:

Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet is to reduce the risk or impact on heart disease. It may also help manage PCOS symptoms. A DASH diet is rich in fish, poultry, fruits, vegetables whole grain, as well as low-fat dairy produce. The diet discourages foods that are high in saturated fat as well as sugar. Read – Indian DASH  diet plan.

 

Mineral-rich diet:

Research shows that iodine, selenium, as well as zinc, are especially beneficial for individuals with hypothyroidism.

Iodine: Iodine is an essential mineral that is needed to make thyroid hormones. However, this can be easily incorporated by using iodized salt in the daily diet.

Selenium: Selenium helps the body to activate thyroid hormones for its use by the body. This essential mineral also has antioxidant benefits. It protects the thyroid gland from damage by free radical. Include tuna, sardines, eggs, as well as legumes.

Zinc: Like selenium, zinc also helps the body to activate thyroid hormones. Studies also show that zinc may help the body regulate TSH. This in return controls the release of thyroid hormones. Eat more zinc-rich foods like oysters as well as other shellfish, beef, as well as chicken.

High protein foods:

Proteins help thyroid gland to function normally. It helps in the production as well as in the release of thyroid hormone. Include pulses, legumes, milk and its products, egg, chicken, as well as fish in your diet.

Foods to avoid in Indian Diet Plan for PCOS with Thyroid:

900 Calorie Diet Plan for Weight Loss

  • Refined carbohydrates like bakery products, refined flour, junk food.
  • Sugary snacks as well as drinks.
  • Inflammatory foods like processed foods as well as red meats.
  • Avoid sucrose, high fructose corn syrup, dextrose, sweetened sodas, as well as juices.
  • Goitrogens: Goitrogens are compounds that may interfere with the normal function of the thyroid gland.
    • Soy foods
    • Raw Cruciferous vegetables: Cabbage, broccoli, kale and cauliflower.
    • Fruits and starchy plants: Sweet potatoes, cassava, peaches, as well as strawberries.
    • Nuts and seeds: Pine nuts as well as peanuts.
Do you know?

Studies show cooking foods with goitrogens may “inactivate” the goitrogenic substances. Thus, small amounts of goitrogens in cooked form can be tolerated by the body.

 

How does the dairy items affect PCOS and thyroid?

Dairy products can affect the factors of PCOS and may have some effects on the treatment of
PCOS. However, research in this area is scarce.

  • The researches suggest low-fat dairy products have high insulin-like growth factor (IGF). This interferes in insulin action.
  • Whereas high-fat milk or full-fat milk has high estrogen levels that lower IGF levels in milk.
  • This proves beneficial to insulin resistance found in individuals with PCOS. High fat in milk
    also helps improve ovulation performance.
  • Studies show people with thyroid problems show some level of lactose intolerance. Studies
    also, suggest avoiding dairy leads to a reduction in TSH levels.
  • Conclusion – Thus, we might sparingly use or avoid dairy for an individual having PCOS and thyroid as per her requirement.

      Hi Tanvi,

      the green juice mentioned is highly beneficial hence don’t replace that .. or have it on days when possible. 1 glass low fat milk in a day will not harm.

      Hi Shivaavya,

      Thank you so much for your kind words .

      what is your age ? Women who have pcos , have a regular bloating issue , It can be taken care of , by ating barley aatta roti instead of wheat , and drinking barley water . this helps in reducing bloating to a great extent. Drinking good amount of water will also help.

      Because you experience bloating after meals , it can also be due o intake of gassy foods .. so you need to pay attention to your choice of food . dont over eat , eat small meals at small gaps , and try to walk for 10 mins after each meal . This will help you in the long run as well.
