Salmon is full of anti-inflammatory omega three fatty acids, which are needed to support cognitive functions, such as reducing depression and brain fog, as well as getting rid of any inflammation that may be plaguing the thyroid. Omega three fatty acids are also an excellent source of vitamin D, which has been linked to the improvement of many autoimmune conditions.
