I have Colloid Goitre and my right thyroid has swelling of more than 5cm. My age is 43 years. Many times I have difficulty in swallowing food. Doctors have suggested my thyroid removal surgery. I am looking for non surgical treatment. What is the best diet for Colloid Goitre.

Ans: Difficulty in swallowing is a reason why it needs to be addressed. If you are opting out for no Surgery. There are other ways to shrink the gland. Kindly consult your Physician. Avoid Goitrogenic food in your diet like Cabbage, Broccoli and Cauliflower

Hi Doctor, my 17 year daughter has hyper thyroidism.. Her TSH is 0.022 T3 is 380.42 and T4 is 17.40..Kindly advise about the medication and what diet she should take or avoid... Thanks

Ans: I don't think it is wise to take treatment for hyperthyroidism unsupervised. You need to meet an Endocrinologist or an Internist. Depending on her symptoms and physical examination , your daughter might need to undergo a Radio nuclide thyroid scan . A condition called thyroiditis can produce similar lab results, (the scan will help confirm or rule out this condition). The role of diet is limited but it it might be advisable to avoid iodine rich food.

Ans: If your thyroid functions are normal, I don't think any diet will help decrease the size of a colloid goitre. In the past lack of iodine in the diet used to cause a goitre, this is very rare nowadays with routine iodinisation of salt.
