What can you tell me about high protein tests and your thyroid?

Answer by  Jenny25 (939)

Too much protein in your thyroid is not a good thing. The more protein in your thyroid the more hyperactive your thyroid will be. That means you should lose weight more easily than most people and not have control over how much weight you lose. You might have a hyper-thyroid.

I don't know anything about thyroid health, in general. I find it interesting that a high protein diet might affect your thyroid in a palliative manner or otherwise. An unbalanced thyroid can lead to many uncomfortable, unhealthy symptoms. A high protein diet is good for upping your metabolism which, in turn, is good for a healthy thyroid.
