During a recent discussion on the TV program “About the Most Important” on the Russia-1 channel, physician and TV presenter Dr. Alexander Myasnikov commented on how certain vegetables are sometimes mentioned in connection with thyroid health.
According to Myasnikov, some vegetables—such as cabbage—may have an influence on metabolic processes in the body. In certain medical contexts, specialists may advise individuals with diagnosed thyroid conditions to review their diet with a healthcare professional, especially if they have ongoing treatment or hormonal prescriptions.
However, the degree of influence can vary from person to person, and these remarks should not be interpreted as universal medical advice.
Myasnikov also noted that foods rich in iodine (including seaweed and some types of seafood) are not necessarily suitable for everyone. In specific thyroid disorders, the balance of iodine intake may be an important factor, so moderation and individual assessment are key. Experts emphasize the importance of consulting a doctor before making significant dietary changes.
Overall, the discussion highlights that food choices related to thyroid function should be personalized and evaluated together with a healthcare specialist rather than based on general assumptions.
