There are no specific dietary guidance for thyroid problem. But a general health precaution like eating a wholesome balanced diet is important. Try to avoid all processed food or restrict them once in a month. Let her have fruits and vegetables. There is no need to panic and let her lead a normal life. Take regular checkup and follow up .
