Goitrogenic:

 People with thyroid problems should avoid foods that contain goitrogens, substances that contain foods such as cruciferous vegetables, and soy products that can interfere with the production of thyroid hormones.

While goiter can affect thyroid function, most people, including those with hypothyroidism, can enjoy foods rich in goiter like kale, broccoli, and it does not affect thyroid health.

Cruciferous vegetables like kale and broccoli are actually low in goitrogens. In addition, cooked foods containing goitrogens reduce goitrogenic activity, making them safer for people with hypothyroidism.

That said, it's a good idea to avoid eating too many raw cruciferous vegetables like kale, kale, Chinese cabbage, and Brussels sprouts, as well as raw cruciferous vegetable juice. Other goitrogenic foods include soy and pearl barley.

In general, people with hypothyroidism should avoid eating large amounts of goitrogenic foods.
