Hyperthyroidism, or hyperthyroidism for short, is generally associated with an increased basal metabolic rate in such patients. Therefore, a moderate diet of high-calorie, high-protein, vitamin-rich foods is recommended. Foods such as pork are high in fat. Patients can usually increase the number of side meals 2 to 3 times, 2 to 3 hours after their normal 3 meals; they can usually choose foods rich in high quality protein such as fish and shrimp, lean meat, milk, eggs and beans; it is recommended to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables such as grapefruit, kiwi, strawberries and amaranth. In addition, as patients with hyperthyroidism sweat a lot, it is recommended to drink at least 1,500-3,000ml of water every day and to increase the intake of foods such as spinach and bananas according to the actual situation, which helps to maintain the balance of electrolytes in the body.
It is important to note that dietary care is only one part of disease control and is not a complete substitute for treatment. Active medical consultation is recommended for any discomfort in daily life.
