is cabbage toxic to thyroid?

I would like to know if cabbage can be toxic to our thyroid since cabbage is a part of brassica family, and it can inhibit thyroid function, since it contains goiterogenic compounds, is it true?

Thats why I'm so scared to eat cabbage, but I've heard from a friend that she really lose a weight by eating cabbage soup, I really want to try, please help me, thanks a lot.

Dear Gladys,

I'm sorry but'm not allowed to give you here any medical consultation. The above mentionned toxical complications I've never heard of.

Please ask your doctor pefore you start your cabbage soup diet or ask a doctor online in the form below.

All the best,
Gabriela
