Soy is one of the most debated foods in the thyroid world. For years, the common advice was simple: “Avoid soy if you have thyroid issues.” But more recently, experts have been revisiting that recommendation, asking: Is it really that cut and dry?
In this mashup episode of Thyroid-Healthy Bites, I bring you three trusted thyroid voices with very different perspectives:


Dr. Izabella Wentz shares why many Hashimoto’s patients do better limiting soy, at least in the beginning.


Dr. Alan Christianson explains why his deep dive into the research didn’t support a blanket recommendation to avoid soy.


Mary Shomon offers a practical middle ground, sharing best (and worst) choices around soy.


Together, we explore:


Do thyroid patients really need to avoid soy 100% of the time?


If not, which forms of soy are best?


How can we weigh soy’s potential benefits against its possible drawbacks?


Plus, I’ll share my own approach as a thyroid health coach and chef.
