I'm curious about whether it's okay for someone with a hypothyroid condition to drink Ragi malt or Ragi Java. Could consuming ragi millets have any adverse effects on hypothyroidism?

Ragi malt or Ragi Java can be safely consumed by most people with hypothyroidism, but like any food, its best to eat it in moderation. If you consume ragi or other millets frequently, it may be a good idea to monitor your thyroid levels regularly with your doctor and ensure youre getting enough iodine. Ensure a well-balanced diet, and consider reducing your intake of other goitrogenic foods if you are concerned about the impact on your thyroid.
