When you cook the soups or steam the veggies, you can add a tiny bit/ small spoon scoop of coconut oil with a bit of your preferred kind and the water. Pour flaxseed oil in the completed product. A lot of times, especially when steaming,  I like to add natural/raw almonds or walnuts, depending on the taste I am going for, to the recipe'. I usually lightly toast a minimal (small, tight fistful) amount to add to the taste, protein and nutrients. I always, always add greens to whatever I eat for dinner, almost always for lunch. Unlike the book says I don't for breakfast because of the four hour rule, and I take my pill first thing in the morning.
Also, for health, I almost always add raw ginger to every recipe' of soup/steamed veggies. To complement the ginger, I almost always add dill. It provides the palette with such a great dichotomy, which I love. BTW- All of the Coconut Bliss Icecreams are Vegan, Soy and GF and are fantabulous(!) if you feel like you need a little thyroid treat. :)

I will try to see which books I have that really focus on those types of recipe's and post them for you here. As for Kale, most people I know love steaming it up with some butter (Earth Balance is yummy veggie goodness); a chopped up/pressed clove of garlic, a tiny bit of salt and pepper. Also good with greens may be Alicia's pickles chopped up small- I used to love (still do, just try not to eat them) diced sweet pickles over spinach.....yum! Additionally, I forgot, a small amount of Iodized Salt (Kosher) is good to add to foods for your thyroid (still following the four hour rule). Oh yeah, and Quinoa has the most protein, etc. of any of the grains, so that's a great one to add, too.

If you have any more questions, I'm always happy to help! Take care and best wishes!

I'm in  your fan club for sure, Luce.  Thanks a million... I am fortunate to have a Wild by Nature store nearby, so I can really shop those shelves.. Their produce is just so pretty to look and even better to eat.  I'll be looking into more of your recommendations and trying to be more creative.  xo

Luce, I forgot to mention that I used quinoa in a stuffed pepper recipe I really did "wing" and boy did the dish take flight.  Yummy goodness...

Carol Ann- you are such a sweetie pie! Thank you! BTW- I would love that stuffed pepper recipe' if you can remember your wingings. :) Also, I posted more soups,etc, on the site. They are super easy and probably basics people all ready are making, but that's ok. I hope all is going well for you. Cheers

Anybody think about mentioning bio-identical hormones here?

There are alternatives.....

www.armourthyroid.com

Just a note on armour: it's directly animal derived (it's a porcine, it's derived from the thyroids of pigs). Many people I know with thyroid issues that they can't resolve on synthroid have had wonderful results on armour, so I'm not knocking its use, but if one responds well to the synthetics and is avoiding animal products for ethical reasons (or religious ones in my case: even before I was a vegan, I was a kosher-observant Jew), it may be questionable, particularly when there is a synthetic alternative that doesn't use animal products.

It has to be a personal choice, however: again, I know many people who did not respond well to synthroid and found great relief with Armour. And if were a matter of life or death on my part, I'd probably take it, but thankfully I respond extremely well to synthetic levothyroxine.

Thanks everyone for their informative responses! I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism at the age of 15 and lately have been wondering if my diet could reverse my condition. I recently have stopped eating meat and started to eat soy yogurt and milk. I have not stopped eating cheese yet  but, am planning on trying it out to see how I do! It would be a miracle if my diet would reverse my thyroid condition! Again, thanks everyone for the great information and recipes!!!
