generally speaking things like spinach chard the Brassica leafy greens these are not beneficial for humans and I think that the risks far outweigh any potential benefits there
We can't find evidence that holds up here. Proponents are reasoning from mechanism or analogy rather than direct human data, and the most credible skeptics raise objections we can't dismiss.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

the leafy greens are going to carry with them from my perspective a lot of other negative things for women either oxalates or isothiocyanates which especially in pregnancy could be problematic those are compounds that are going to inhibit the absorption of iodine and prevent optimal thyroid function
those are compounds that are going to inhibit the absorption of iodine and prevent optimal thyroid function and if you're growing a baby you want your thyroid to work really well you don't want to be giving yourself goitrogenic compounds like isothiocyanates the list goes on and on of other problematic things in Leafy grains for humans ftic acid things that are going to prevent nutrient absorption
kale full of isothiocyanates which will disrupt your thyroid by inhibiting the absorption of iodine
the isothiocyanates in kale can affect iodine uptake at the level of the thyroid I think these are harming our thyroids and there's no reason to eale certain compounds in the vegetables can interfere with thyroid hormone synthesis and essentially block the iodine
kale is look it's a plant leaf it's full of Defense chemicals which chemicals long word isothiocyanates they mess with your thyroid they inhibit iodine absorption there
Kale's [ __ ] you guys have seen me with that t-shirt of that hat I don't think it's great for humans it contains compounds the family from isothiocyanates that will inhibit the absorption of iodine at the level of its thyroid
there are tons of Defense chemicals in here including isothiocyanates which inhibit the absorption of iodine in your body
eating a bitter green full of isothiocyanates which inhibit the absorption of iodine at the level of your thyroid that's not really good for you at all is good for you
in the bras leaves like kale you have isothiocyanates which could negatively affect iodine absorption at the level of thyroid
greens are plant leaves plant leaves are highly defended spinach is full of oxalates kale is full of isothiocyanates which are goitrogenic compounds that inhibit iodine absorption at the level of the thyroid
