Shrimp Thai
If you’ve been here a while, you know that I think shellfish are a must, weekly, to support healthy thyroid production. Shellfish have the perfect ration of zinc, selenium, iodine, and copper. All of which, are incredibly important to thyroid health. This recipe also works in ginger for anti inflammatory purposes and my beloved cilantro, which helps to pull heavy metals out of your body.
