Thyroid hormones play a crucial role in regulating metabolism and cardiovascular function, with even mild dysfunction—such as subclinical hypothyroidism—negatively impacting heart health. While previous studies have confirmed the effects of iodine, selenium, and vitamin D on thyroid regulation and inflammation, the combined role of these nutrients in reducing cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in autoimmune thyroid disorders remains insufficiently understood. This review explores the influence of specific micronutrients—including selenium, iodine, and zinc—and dietary patterns, particularly the Mediterranean diet, on the pathophysiology of hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. We introduce a novel framework that integrates emerging data on sex-specific micronutrient interactions and nutritional immunomodulation. Unlike the existing literature, this review introduces original hypotheses related to sex-specific nutritional immunomodulation and proposes a novel framework for micronutrient-driven dietary intervention in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
