The first nutrition app built specifically for hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's. Not another calorie counter — a system that understands your condition, your medication, and your symptoms. > YOUR PLAN FROM DAY 1 A 32-screen medical-behavioral quiz learns your condition, medication, symptoms, diet, and goals. Every answer calibrates which foods to prioritize, which myths to debunk, and how to organize your day. You don't get a generic plan — you get yours. > MEDICATION TIMING ENGINE Calculates to the minute when to take levothyroxine vs coffee, calcium, iron, or food — the interactions that half of patients don't know about and that sabotage medication absorption. Hard rules, no AI, no hallucinations: the only feature with 100% medical certainty. > FOOD VALIDATOR Type or scan any food and in 3 seconds it classifies it into 4 tiers: Supportive, Cautionary, Profile-dependent, or Myth — with evidence grade and the reasoning behind it. Cuts the "does this hurt me?" anxiety at the root with citable answers. > WEEKLY MEAL PLAN A weekly meal plan filtered by your profile — celiac status, AIP, avoided foods, cooking level. Every recipe includes macros, steps, and substitutions. Eating well for your thyroid without thinking — what to cook today is already decided. > DAILY LOG + CORRELATION ENGINE Log your symptoms (energy, brain fog, mood, sleep) and meals. After 14 days, the engine finds real correlations between what you eat and how you feel: "gluten drops your energy 38% the next day." Discoveries impossible to make by gut feeling — your body turned into data. > LAB RESULTS Upload a photo of your blood work and the app extracts TSH, T3, T4, anti-TPO and other markers, graphing them over time. Stop digging through old PDFs in your email — see your thyroid trajectory like a dashboard. > LEARN — EVIDENCE-BASED LIBRARY Curated articles (EN/ES) on thyroid, nutrients, and myths. Every claim shows a visible evidence grade (Strong / Moderate / Emerging). Anti-TikTok: real medical information, not influencer advice. > AI COMPANION A 1-on-1 chat that answers nutrition and lifestyle questions with strict medical guardrails: never says "cure," "treat," or "reverse," and redirects every clinical question to your doctor. An assistant in your pocket, without misinformation. > HOME & DAILY TRACKING A hub that brings together your next medication, today's meals, your streak, and shortcuts to the food validator and daily log. Push notifications for exact medication timing. Open the app and know what to do in the next 5 minutes. > YOUR DATA IS PRIVATE Your health data is encrypted and never shared with third parties. We don't sell data. Period. Download free and get your personalized thyroid plan in under 5 minutes. > APPLE HEALTH Connect Apple Health to sync your steps, activity, sleep, weight, and resting heart rate. Thyra lines them up with the symptoms you log so you can see how your body and your thyroid move together. You choose what to share — it's only used inside the app, never for ads. ---------- Subscription ---------- Thyra is free to download. Full access to meal plans, the AI companion, lab analysis, and the symptom-food correlation engine is part of Thyra Premium: - Monthly — USD 14.99 / month - Annual — USD 59.99 / year (includes a 7-day free trial) - Lifetime — USD 119 (one-time) Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation.
