Usually food doesn't have much importance in thyroid problems as per the latest journals.
But still you can avoid cauliflower, cabbage, soybean, meat from the daily diet. Once in a while consumption does not alter thyroid.
Start taking iodized salt.

Hi., I can understand your concern.
She needs to take a proper dose of medicine.
Share more details regarding her previous TSH levels and medicine.
She should avoid processed foods and oily foods.
A simple home made diet is fine. With that regular walking and mild exercise would be perfect.
