Which Things You Should Do To Keep Your Thyroid Healthy

 What is Thyroid Disease?

According to Cleveland Clinic

"The thyroid gland is a small organ that’s located in the front of the neck, wrapped around the windpipe (trachea). It’s shaped like a butterfly, smaller in the middle with two wide wings that extend around the side of your throat. The thyroid is a gland. You have glands throughout your body, where they create and release substances that help your body do a specific thing. Your thyroid makes hormones that help control many vital functions of your body."

• Start exercising

Exercise is a great way to help your body stay healthy. It can help you lose weight, build muscle, and feel more energized. Exercising also helps boost your metabolism, which helps you burn calories faster and keep your weight in check.

• Eat a clean diet

A healthy diet is one of the best ways to keep your thyroid healthy. A varied diet includes lots of fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Avoid processed foods as much as possible; these contain artificial ingredients that can disrupt your body's natural balance.

• Daily Recommendations for Iodine

Iodine is an essential mineral that plays a role in many bodily functions including brain function, metabolism and thyroid function. The recommended daily intake of iodine for adults is 150 micrograms per day; most Americans get less than this amount. It's recommended that people who have had hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's thyroiditis take a multivitamin with iodine supplements added daily to ensure they get enough of this important mineral throughout their lives.

• Drink lots of water

Water plays an important role in keeping your body healthy because it helps prevent constipation which can lead to bowel problems such as irritable.
