Can people with hyperthyroidism eat pears

People with hyperthyroidism can eat pears. Hyperthyroidism is caused by an excessive concentration of thyroid hormones in the blood. Hyperthyroidism patients need to carry out “three high and one low” diet, that is, high calorie, high vitamin, high protein, low iodine diet. Because hyperthyroidism is a high metabolic disease, thyroid hormone can increase the body’s metabolic rate, increase oxygen consumption, promote the process of heat production, so hyperthyroidism patients are in a high metabolic, high consumption state. In the diet, attention must be paid to supplementing calories, vitamins and proteins to avoid calorie and nutrient deficiencies. At the same time, patients with hyperthyroidism must be given a low iodine diet, because iodine is an important raw material for the synthesis of thyroid hormones, iodine is easy to synthesize more thyroid hormones, leading to the aggravation of hyperthyroidism symptoms. Pears are fruits with high vitamin content and do not contain iodine, so patients with hyperthyroidism can eat pears. The treatment of hyperthyroidism needs to be based on the “three highs and one low” diet, as well as anti-thyroid medication, surgery and iodine-131 therapy.
