Answers:
Yes definately.
Iodine and tyrosine are essential # nutrients required for the production of thyroid hormones.
Selenium is required for the conversion of thyroxine (T4) to triiodothyronine (T3)
Zinc is involved in the transcription of thyroid hormone and as an enzyme co-factor in T4 to T3 conversion.
Vitamin A is involved in the formation of thyroid hormone receptors, and in the binding of thyroid hormones to cellular receptors.
As an electron donor, vitamin C is involved in tyrosine metabolism and thyroid hormone synthesis.
Vitamin D is required for the maintenance of a normal healthy immune system and healthy cell development.
Cysteine, methionine and taurine which help support Phase II liver detoxification pathways.
Bupleurum falcatum has been traditionally used to aid in the maintenance of healthy liver metabolism and provide support for healthy liver function.
Antioxidants zinc, selenium, vitamin C and vitamin E that help reduce the harmful effects of free radicals.

also, there are certain foods that actually suppress thyroid function.
Goitrogens can induce hypothyroidism and goiter. In sufferers of hypothyroidism, goitrogens can further depress thyroidal function and stimulate the growth of the thyroid (goiter).
Many goitrogens are generally members of the brassica family. These include:
Broccoli
Cauliflower
Brussel Sprouts
Cabbage
Mustard
Kale
Turnips
Rape seed (Canola Oil)
Other goitrogens include:
Soy
Pine nuts
Millet
Peanuts
Corn

also, avoiding dairy and gluten products is ideal as there is a high connection to autoimmune disorders and gluten intolerance, same with dairy, and also flouride.
Flouride suppresses the thyroid hormone. Infact it was used by doctors till the 70s for overactive thyroids!
But before you jump to conclusions that its your thyroid, go get your TSH levels checked by your doctor. Its a simple blood test, and for peace of mind, its always good to have a definate diagnosis.
