Article Synopsis
- Food significantly influences the development of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), prompting a study comparing dietary habits between 491 HT patients and 433 controls.
- HT patients showed higher consumption of animal fat and processed meat, while controls ate more red meat, non-alcoholic beverages, whole grains, and plant oils.
- The study found plant oil linked to higher triiodothyronine levels and olive oil associated with lower blood pressure in HT patients on levothyroxine therapy, suggesting dietary choices may not change post-diagnosis.
