Thyroid disorders change how much energy you have, how easily weight shifts, and how your gut behaves — and the nutrition advice circulating online is largely a list of foods to fear. Most of it is not supported by evidence, and avoiding whole vegetable families on the strength of it costs you nutrition you needed.

This consultation works from your reports and your prescription. We look at your TSH, T3 and T4 trend over time rather than one reading, at when you take your thyroxine and what you eat around it, and at the deficiencies that commonly sit underneath thyroid symptoms — iron, ferritin, vitamin D and B12 in particular.

The plan then covers meal timing around medication, adequate protein and micronutrients, fibre for the constipation that often comes with hypothyroidism, and a realistic weight approach that accounts for a slower metabolic rate instead of pretending it away.

Who this is for

  • Hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's thyroiditis, newly diagnosed or long-standing
  • Hyperthyroidism or Graves' disease under medical management
  • Subclinical hypothyroidism being monitored by your doctor
  • Thyroid disorder alongside PCOS, diabetes or high cholesterol
  • Fatigue, hair fall or weight change with a known thyroid diagnosis

What’s included

  • Review of your TSH / T3 / T4 history as a trend, not a single reading
  • Meal and medication timing planned so absorption is not compromised
  • Screening your reports for the iron, ferritin, vitamin D and B12 gaps that commonly co-exist
  • A full meal plan in household measures, built around your usual cuisine
  • A clear, evidence-based answer on soy, cruciferous vegetables and iodine — instead of blanket bans
  • Follow-up reviews as repeat thyroid reports come in

—How it works

From the first form to a plan that keeps up with you

Six stages. The last two repeat for as long as you work together — that loop is the point.

  1. 01Before the first call

    Assess

    Pick a time and fill in the new-patient assessment — your details, health history, medication and what you want to change. A few minutes now means the consultation starts with the real picture.

  2. 02The consultation

    Understand

    We go through your history, your routine and any blood work from the last six months together, and agree what to work on first. Nothing is planned around a number you have not seen.

  3. 03Plan, version 1

    Plan

    A plan built from the food you already cook — every slot of every day, in household portions, with calories and macros calculated from the ingredients rather than estimated.

  4. 04Every day

    Live

    Your plan arrives in the practice's app. Sign in with your phone number and the access code you're given, check meals off with a live photo, and log your weight and measurements.

  5. 05Between reviews↻ repeats

    Measure

    Weight, measurements, adherence and any new blood reports gather in one record — the same record you and your nutritionist both see.

  6. 06Version 2, 3, …↻ repeats

    Adapt

    At each follow-up the plan is revised against what the record actually shows. Earlier versions are kept, so progress is a history rather than a rewrite.

Included: the practice’s nutrition app

Your plan for this programme lives in the practice’s own app — today’s meals in household portions, a live-camera check-off so your nutritionist sees the real plate, your weight and measurement trends, and your blood markers charted against their normal ranges. It opens in the browser on any phone or laptop, and it is included in the programme fee.

Questions about thyroid diet planning

Should I stop eating cabbage, cauliflower and soy?

In ordinary cooked quantities, no. The concern comes from studies at intakes far beyond normal eating. We would rather keep the nutrition those foods provide and manage the variables that genuinely matter, such as medication timing.

How long after my thyroid tablet can I eat?

This is planned individually around your prescription and your morning routine, and it is one of the practical changes that makes the most difference. Your prescribing doctor's instructions take precedence.

Can a diet plan reduce my thyroid medication dose?

No, and nothing here is designed to. Dose is a medical decision made by your doctor on the basis of your reports. Nutrition supports your energy, weight and nutrient status alongside that treatment.

Questions about booking, fees, follow-ups or the app are answered in the practice FAQ.

Nutrition support complements your medical treatment — it does not replace your doctor's advice, diagnosis or prescribed medication. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis or a promise of a particular result.

Let’s build a plan that keeps up with you.

One assessment, one plan built around your life, and a record that keeps up with you. Book a consultation, or ask a question first — both are fine.

No obligation to continue after the first consultation. Fees are confirmed in writing before you book.
