  1. Nutrient Content:
    Bananas are rich in vitamins B6, C, potassium, and fiber, supporting overall health.

  2. Thyroid Impact:
    They do not contain goitrogens, so they are unlikely to worsen hypothyroidism.

  3. Energy and Digestion:
    Natural sugars provide energy, and fiber aids digestion, beneficial for hypothyroidism.

  4. Moderation:
    Consume in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
