Thyroid issues and new motherhood just seem to go hand-in-hand. Hmmm. No one ever mentioned that during childbirth class! My doctor sure didn't say anything. So let's take a quick look at why thyroid disease and being a mom go together.

Whether you're vegan or not, this is a great example of a food that many of us would buy at the store when it's really quite easy to make yourself. And when you buy it at the store, the ingredients will be something a little less desirable...genetically modified soybean oil, MSG, and plenty of sugar.
