Foods which have been demonstrated to have goitrogenic effects include soy, cassava (when crushed and not detoxified by soaking, [7]) vegetables in the genus Brassica (such as broccoli and cabbage), [9] [page needed] and other cruciferous vegetables. [10]
Goitrogen ingestion: Adverse drug reactions: Hashimoto's thyroiditis: Autoimmune disease in which the thyroid gland is gradually destroyed. Infiltration of lymphocytes. Hypothyroidism: Diffuse and lobulated [8] Thyroid hormone replacement: Prevalence: 1 to 1.5 in a 1000: Remission with treatment Pituitary disease
Goitrin is an organosulfur compound classified as a derivative of oxazolidine and as a cyclic thiocarbamate.It reduces the production of thyroid hormones such as thyroxine. [1]
A study involving healthy adult volunteers determined that at levels above 0.007 milligrams per kilogram per day (mg/(kg·d)), perchlorate can temporarily inhibit the thyroid gland's ability to absorb iodine from the bloodstream ("iodide uptake inhibition", thus perchlorate is a known goitrogen). [87]
7 PubMed cite to study: 2/3 reduction of glucosinolates and sulforaphane in fresh broccoli after steaming.
Glucosinolate structure; side group R varies. Glucosinolates are natural components of many pungent plants such as mustard, cabbage, and horseradish.The pungency of those plants is due to mustard oils produced from glucosinolates when the plant material is chewed, cut, or otherwise damaged.
Cabbage plants. Cruciferous vegetables are vegetables of the family Brassicaceae (also called Cruciferae) with many genera, species, and cultivars being raised for food production such as cauliflower, cabbage, kale, garden cress, bok choy, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, mustard plant and similar green leaf vegetables.
The majority of cases of hyperthyroidism in cats are the result of benign tumours. The most commonly identified abnormalities of the thyroid gland in hyperthyroid cases are follicular cell adenoma and multinodular adenomatous hyperplasia. 1% to 3% of feline hyperthyroid cases are caused by malignant tumours.
