Drinking beer is not recommended for people with hyperthyroidism and may aggravate the condition. Hyperthyroidism is caused by the production of too much thyroid hormone by the glands of the thyroid gland, which leads to thyrotoxicosis. Hyperthyroid patients should pay particular attention to their diet in their daily lives. Dietary taboos include iodine-rich foods, such as nori, marine fish and kelp; and alcoholic beverages, including beer, liquor and wine. In addition to diet, patients with hyperthyroidism should receive regular treatment, including anti-thyroid medications, such as methimazole and propylthiouracil, as well as radioactive iodine or surgical treatment. Patients with hyperthyroidism should seek medical attention and follow the doctor’s instructions. Consult your doctor for specific dietary combinations.
