NUTRIENT DEFICIENCIES

A lack of essential vitamins and minerals can also be the reason your thyroid is functioning below optimal levels. Zinc, magnesium, iodine, iron, B vitamins, selenium, vitamin A, C and D, omega 3 and protein are all essential to thyroid function. If your doctor suspects or has tested for nutrient deficiencies, they might start you on a supplement protocol and/ or encourage you to eat foods high in these specific nutrients.
