“I am not convinced that broccoli and Brassica loves us I think that kale doesn't love us back I think that occasional broccoli and people who have adequate stores of iodine might be okay but I think it's very clearly a food that is encouraging us not to eat it and it has been shown to inhibit absorption aside a iodine with a level of the thyroid specifically the Goron”
“in certain Brassica Foods collard greens brussels sprouts and some Russian kale there is sufficient amounts of an isothiocyanate called goitrin to potentially decrease iodine uptake by the thyroid”
“broccoli is part of the Brasa family of plants this family of plants contains compounds like isoage which prevent the absorption of iodine in your thyroid which leads to lower levels of thyroid hormones low energy weight gain fatigue malaise”
“well compounds in broccoli isothiocyanates specifically sorane inhibit the absorption of iodine at the level of the thyroid that's not a good thing for humans”
