Seaweed is full of nutrients that are key to thyroid function. It’s rich in iodine, and high in zinc and iron. Seaweed is also rich in DHA, which is a type of omega-3 fatty acid that supports brain function, vision, and the central nervous system. Salmon is beneficial due to its high content of omega-3 fats, vitamin D, and selenium, which can help prevent cell damage and joint inflammation.
