  1. Hypothyroidism is linked to weight gain. Thus, a person with this condition can find it difficult to lose weight. Consume a diet rich in fibre and low in fat to maintain a healthy weight.
  2. Although it may be difficult to get moving in those with a sluggish thyroid, it is a good idea to push yourself to do some physical activity.
  3. Stress is known to exacerbate thyroid disorders. Do something to reduce those stress levels. It could be yoga, meditation, dance, or anything.
  4. Know the symptoms. Understand what the common symptoms of thyroid cancer are.
  5. Get Tested. Have your GP check for nodules and test TSH levels every few years if you have risk factors for cancer.
