suckhoedoisong.vn – Iodine diet plays an important role for thyroid cancer patients preparing for radioactive iodine treatment. However, choosing foods and nutritional supplements when abstaining from iodine is not easy.

Leanpro Thyro LID is a specialized nutritional solution to support health improvement for people on this strict diet.

Struggling with the Iodine diet  

During radioactive iodine (I-131) treatment, thyroid patients are forced to follow an iodine-reduced diet. Specifically, in the 2 weeks before radiotherapy with I-131, it is necessary to control the body’s iodine intake to no more than 50mcg/day, by limiting iodine-rich foods in meals. This diet makes thyroid cells “hungry” for iodine, so that thyroid tissue will “capture” iodine better when receiving a dose of I-131, ensuring treatment effectiveness.

As it is difficult to accurately measure the iodine content in food, a number of people have difficulty choosing foods with the appropriate amount of iodine while still meeting enough nutrition for the body. In fact, several have gone on a negative diet by completely cutting out foods containing iodine. This has a detrimental effect on radiotherapy treatment and increases the risk of side effects from radiotherapy. In the long term, excessive abstinence will cause the body to become tired, weak and slow to recover after each treatment session.

Difficulty in practicing an iodine diet

So, how to balance two goals: Controlling iodine within allowable limits, while also providing enough nutrition that the body needs to have the best health for I-131 treatment?
