In today’s episode we are talking about the importance of protein, more specifically animal-based protein, and its role in our nutrition when trying to conceive with Hashimoto’s. Protein is an essential nutrient and is the building blocks that make up our bodies! They contain many vitamins and minerals, such as B vitamins like niacin, riboflavin and B12, along with choline, copper, iron, phosphorus, selenium, and zinc. Our thyroid and reproductive system loves each of these nutrients, which is why we advocate for an animal-based protein diet. During this episode, we will also share our favorite tips and tricks on how to increase protein intake and how to keep it simple when doing so. We’ll explain how to make protein the star of your meal, and how that will ultimately help you consume higher amounts of protein throughout the day. Our biggest tip for hitting your protein goal is to start your day off with a high protein breakfast. Not only will it help you hit your daily protein requirement, but it will help you stay full and energized throughout the day! While we love plant-based proteins, we don’t recommend a solely plant-based diet. We believe plant proteins are great to add into a meal, but not as a replacement for an animal-based protein. Incorporating animal-based protein into your diet helps to build muscle, support thyroid and hormone health, and can improve egg quality, which is why it’s highly important in your Hashimoto’s healing and TTC journey.
