Wild Salmon with Quinoa

Do you know the benefits of eating wild salmon? It has a lot more omega-3s than farmed salmon! Unlike the latter, wild salmon doesn’t contain any hormones or toxic chemicals. Salmon is known to be a great source of protein, vitamins and minerals. This dish will bring healthy protein into your diet while still keeping it delicious! You can have a side dish with quinoa that is high in fiber which can lower cholesterol levels. You can also eat it with shirataki noodles made in white sauce and fresh vegetables!

How This Recipe Benefits Your Thyroid

1. Wild Salmon

Wild salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which help reduce inflammation and support thyroid hormone production. It also provides vitamin D and selenium, both crucial for thyroid function and immune health.

2. Avocado Oil

Avocado oil is high in monounsaturated fats, which help support healthy thyroid function. It also helps with the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins that are essential for thyroid health.

3. Garlic

Garlic contains sulfur compounds that support detoxification and have anti-inflammatory properties. This helps reduce oxidative stress on the thyroid and promotes overall health.

4. Broccoli (or Asparagus/Zucchini)

Broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables contain iodine and antioxidants that support thyroid function. These vegetables also contain fiber, which aids in digestion and hormone regulation.

5. Olive Oil

Olive oil is rich in polyphenols and antioxidants, which help reduce inflammation and support healthy hormone balance, including thyroid hormones.

6. Avocado

Avocados are a good source of healthy fats and potassium, which help regulate blood sugar levels. Stable blood sugar is important for thyroid health as it helps in balancing thyroid hormones and preventing dysfunction.
