Grass-fed meat has less saturated fat and more omega 3 fatty acids than grain-fed meat. Eating grass-fed meats will reduce your risk of heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and cancer. The nutritional benefits don’t stop there! Grass-fed lamb is an excellent source of vitamin E and beta carotene, which can help reduce inflammation.

Packed with vitamins and minerals like vitamin B12, selenium, and niacin, it is also high in CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) for weight loss and stronger muscles.

Lamb is delicious when roasted or seared because it can maintain its natural tenderness while also having the crunchy bits on the outside that are delicious!

5. Next, add the whole garlic and butter, fresh oregano, and baste the lamb until it takes a light golden color.

For the sauce(optional):

1. Add 2-3 tablespoons of wine and 4-6 tablespoons of chicken broth to the same pot. Let it simmer for several minutes.

How This Recipe Benefits The Thyroid

1. Grass-Fed Lamb

Grass-fed lamb is a rich source of high-quality protein, zinc, and selenium. Selenium is essential for thyroid hormone production and protects the thyroid from oxidative stress. Zinc supports hormone synthesis and immune function, both critical for maintaining a healthy thyroid.

2. Salt

Salt, particularly iodized or sea salt, provides iodine, a vital mineral for thyroid hormone production. It helps prevent iodine deficiency, a common cause of thyroid dysfunction.

3. Pepper

Pepper contains piperine, a compound that enhances nutrient absorption, including selenium and zinc from the lamb, maximizing the thyroid-supportive properties of the dish.

4. Avocado Oil

Avocado oil is rich in monounsaturated fats and antioxidants, which help reduce inflammation and support the thyroid gland’s overall function. The healthy fats also aid in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, which are essential for thyroid health.

5. Rosemary

Rosemary contains anti-inflammatory compounds and antioxidants that may help alleviate inflammation associated with autoimmune thyroid conditions. Its carnosic acid content is known to support brain and hormonal health.

6. Garlic

Garlic is rich in sulfur compounds, which support detoxification and reduce inflammation. It also boosts immune function, helping to manage autoimmune thyroid conditions such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.

7. Dry Oregano

Oregano is packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, which help protect the thyroid gland from oxidative damage and support overall immune health.

8. White Semi-Sweet Wine

In small amounts, wine can provide polyphenols and antioxidants that may reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, indirectly benefiting thyroid health.

9. Chicken Broth

Chicken broth is nutrient-rich and hydrating, providing minerals like magnesium and potassium that support thyroid function. It aids in digestion and nutrient absorption, promoting overall thyroid health.

10. Butter

Butter, in moderate amounts, is a source of fat-soluble vitamins like vitamin A, which supports thyroid hormone production and immune health.

11. Parsley

Parsley is loaded with vitamins A, C, and K, along with iron and antioxidants, which help reduce inflammation, support the immune system, and promote a healthy thyroid.

This recipe combines nutrient-dense ingredients that are anti-inflammatory, rich in essential minerals, and beneficial for thyroid function. It’s a flavorful dish that nourishes the body while supporting optimal thyroid health.
