India is the most culturally rich country in the world. Our famous Indian philosopher Sri Ravi Shankarji quotes, ” India is home to 7 unparalleled traditions namely – spirituality, Ayurveda, music, fabric and attire, information technology, tourism and last but not the least, It is home to food ”. We are what we eat, but have we ever thought about whether what we are eating is correct or sufficient for our body? With the modernization of the world, we are losing the true essence of food. Too many modifications in the diet may lead to certain deficiencies in the body.
Hypothyroidism in India at a Glance
The first image that we see when we hear “hypothyroidism” is of a woman in her later stages of life. Whereas in reality anyone and everyone are prone to this metabolic disorder. Although, women are 3 times more prone to this condition.
Various factors contributing to thyroid dysfunction are –
- Living in or around mountainous regions
- High consumption of goitrogens (Foods interfering in thyroid gland function) and
- Genetic factors or lifestyle factors.
In India, it is more prevalent because of low iodine content in soil and rampant use of pesticides for food preservation. Contaminated drinking water and non-degradable industrial wastes also increase the possibilities of hypothyroid. Indian diets are predominantly cereal-based yet they are quite varied. The areas with staple cereals or refined cereals also show a high incidence of hypothyroidism.
Hypothyroidism slows down the body’s metabolism. This causes a worrisome weight gain as a major side-effect for an individual. Constipation, hair loss, dry skin, fatigue, and changes in the menstrual cycle are its other accompanying side effects.

Diet can be the first line of defense to tackle hypothyroidism. As our motto says why worry when we can plan.
Foods to incorporate in Indian Diet Plan for Hypothyroidism
Cereals

Consume up to 7 to 9 servings of cereals (1 serving = 30 gms raw) throughout the day. Whole grains should be selected over refined cereals. Fiber-rich whole grains relieve constipation and aids in weight loss. Opt for the following cereals.
Oats: Porridge, upma, or pancakes.
Quinoa: Salad, quinoa missi roti or upma.
Rice: Brown rice and black rice.
Millets: jowar roti or mix flour thalipeeth. (Use bajra in moderation or avoid when possible.)
Whole wheat and broken wheat: chapatis or khakras, broken wheat upma, or daliya with milk.
Dals and Pulses:
This food group is considered a power-packed energy-giving food group. Dals and pulses are not only rich in proteins and fiber, but also rich in phytonutrients and antioxidants. They are low in fat. The high protein content helps in the regulation of thyroid hormone and in reducing fatigue. They also help in weight reduction. Recommendation is up to 2 -3 servings/day (1 serving = 30 gms raw). A variety of dals and pulses like moong, moth beans, chawli, rajma, chickpea, channa, kidney beans, etc can be included.
Nuts and oilseeds
Omega 3 rich nuts like walnuts and flax seeds help in reducing body stress and boosts immunity. They also help to maintain the integrity of brain cells. Nuts such as Brazil nuts are rich in selenium, which helps in thyroid gland stimulation and action. Restrict the nuts to only 2 – 3 nuts /day as they are high in fat content.
Milk and Milk Products
Calcium and proteins rich milk and milk products form an integral part of the Indian diet plan for Hypothyroidism as they help in the functionality of the thyroid gland. Calcium maintains muscle activity while proteins help in the transport of thyroid hormone throughout the body. Vitamin D present in milk keeps the hormone pathway in check.
Select low-fat milk, curd, buttermilk, or paneer up to 2 -3 servings/day (1 serving = 150 ml of cow’s milk).
- Vegetables & Fruits
An antioxidant-rich variety of fruits and vegetables reduces the body’s stress and also maintains skin health. It boosts immunity, otherwise compromised in hypothyroidism. Have at least 5 -6 servings/day of colorful vegetables and fruits. 1 serving = 100 gms raw. Try various forms like detox water, salads, soups, juices and boiled, stewed, or grilled veggies. You will find some interesting recipes on dietburrp.
Fish

Non-vegetarians have the added benefit of including omega 3 rich fish in the diet. The best catch is a low-fat, not fried fish (salmon, tuna, or sardine) up to 1 serving (100 gms) daily. Fish oil not only reduces inflammation caused by hypothyroidism but also improves cognitive health and builds immunity.
Iodized Salt
One of the best remedies is to use iodized salt in the diet. Iodized salt has almost 30 % daily required iodine per gram of salt.
Foods to Avoid in Indian Diet Plan for Hypothyroidism
Goitrogens are the foods that hinder the thyroid gland activity and absorption of iodine from the blood.
- Cruciferous family vegetables – cauliflower, cabbage, kale, and broccoli.
- Beans – soybeans and lima beans.
- Root vegetable -sweet potato.
Heating or cooking destroys the goitrogenic property of these foods. Thus, seldom use of these foods in cooked form is not harmful to the body.
High-calorie foods, refined and processed foods, desserts, and chocolates reduce the iodine absorption from thyroid medicines. This further damages the thyroid gland function. Such foods also aggravate the major side effect of weight gain.
Overconsumption of tea coffee or alcohol interferes with the effective functioning of the thyroid gland.
Indian Diet Plan for Hypothyroidism ( Diet plan for thyroid and weight loss):
Early Morning – 1 glass of warm water with lemon + your thyroid medicine.
Breakfast: 1 Cup Oats upma OR 2 egg white omelets with lots of capsicum OR Vermicilly upama with veggies -1 bowl.

Mid-Morning: 1 medium-sized Orange / Green or red Apple / 1 cup Grapefruit / 1 cup watermelon.
Lunch: 1 cup Salad (excluding cruciferous vegetables),
+ 1 Cup brown rice / broken wheat daliya / 2 small phulka ( fatless ),
+ Vegetable 1 Cup,
+ 1 Cup Dal,
+ 1 cup curd or 50 gms Fish (not fried) or 50 gms chicken.
Post Lunch: 1 glass buttermilk / 1 cup green tea + 15 mins walking.
Evening snack: 1 cup green tea + 2 – 3 walnuts or brazil nuts.
Late evening: 1 cup vegetable soup (not strained) OR Bone Broth – 1 cup.

Post Dinner: 1 cup warm water with lemon + 15 mins walking.
Bed Time – 1 cup Turmeric tea ( Boil water, add 1 full tsp of turmeric in it, 1/4 th tsp black pepper powder, and 1/4th tsp virgin coconut oil. ) This turmeric tea is excellent to activate your thyroid gland to produce more thyroid hormone.

Hi Bettu ,
you have a very good control on your thyroid , and the best thing is that your weight is very much in normal levels without much a do . All this is possible only with your thyroid tab , which has well suited your body . Dont worry about taking it lifelong , this is like an every day thing , and this will help you keep your thyroid in control . If at all you leave it , the thyroid functions will get disruppt and the entire balance will be lost . so in your own body interest , it is best that you continue to take this medicine. diet wise , you just need to make sure that you dont gain weight. as long as your weight is under control , every thing is ok . so just mend your habits and eat every thing healthy .

Hello M Payal,
thank you so much for all the information on the thyroid weight loss diet. I have been suffering with hypothyroidism for over 2 years now and gained 22kgs. in weight. I am on 125mg eltroxin but nothing works. I exercise 5 times a week and am very careful with my eating habits. I am going to start on your plan but wonder if you can help me. I don’t know what gourd is and what can I for it. Also, roti is not easy to get where I live. Curd is also difficult. Can you help me with alternatives.

Hi…
I am Priyanka Karande, 27 yrs old now. 5.4′ height n after delivery m having wt 74. M having 100mg tablet.
M housewife n activity is moderate. I Daily walk for near about 5000 steps. Avoiding cabbage n cauliflower.
But dont understand where m go wrong. My wt is nt about to loose.
Please help.
Your body must have gotten used to the exercises and walking you do and now adjusts to whatever little calories you are intakingf. this happens in a lot of cases where despite of all efforts you dont lose a bit. breaking this plateau requires a lot of patience …. here is what you can do …….. exercise wise – stop doing what you are already doing for a week … and then you surprise your body with a new activity .. for ex – you have been walking all these days , so now change your activity to swimming / zumba dancing / skatting / gyming / playing badminton or lawn tennis … whatever suits you best. tai chi and kick boxing and pillates work excellently in such cases., i know its hard to find time and availabilty of such sports around you .. but if you want to get there .. you need to find harder !!
Food wise – surprise your body yet agin by co nsuming food stuffs that you never did .. it changes your metabolic graph and hence makes you lose weight …. ex – if you have been eating wheat and rice as staples so far … dont eat them for an entire week , and consume other cereals like bajra , jowar , or ragi …. this funda has worked superbly with my clients .. you can try and see if it suits you too ..
Hi…
I am also hypothyroid patient since from last 14yrs… m having 100mg tablet. After diet n exercise m not able to loose wt. Please guide me …

Hi Sucharitha ,
there are different methods of lab testing , and every method has a different normal range . you need to follow the range mentioned by the lab as normal . i think there is nothing to worry as of now .
I’m 62 years old. I’m thyroid patient since 12 years. Previously I was very conscious about maintaining my figure.
But after this, it’s seem impossible to do the same n my weight increases day by day in full swing n I’m worried about this.

Your body must have gotten used to the exercises and walking you do and now adjusts to whatever little calories you are intakingf. this happens in a lot of cases where despite of all efforts you dont lose a bit. breaking this plateau requires a lot of patience …. here is what you can do …….. exercise wise – stop doing what you are already doing for a week … and then you surprise your body with a new activity .. for ex – you have been walking all these days , so now change your activity to swimming / zumba dancing / skatting / gyming / playing badminton or lawn tennis … whatever suits you best. tai chi and kick boxing and pillates work excellently in such cases., i know its hard to find time and availabilty of such sports around you .. but if you want to get there .. you need to find harder !!
Food wise – surprise your body yet agin by co nsuming food stuffs that you never did .. it changes your metabolic graph and hence makes you lose weight …. ex – if you have been eating wheat and rice as staples so far … dont eat them for an entire week , and consume other cereals like bajra , jowar , or ragi …. this funda has worked superbly with my clients .. you can try and see if it suits you too ..
