Goitrin is a natural compound released on hydrolysis and break down of cruciferous vegetables which are proven to interfere with the synthesis of thyroid hormones by blocking iodine uptake. This is the major reason for the elimination of cruciferous vegetables from the diet of individuals with thyroid disorders. Thus early detection of thyroid disease and adopting dietary corrections and modifications are crucial to avert the progression to life-threatening manifestations that includes thyroid storm. To our knowledge, no studies have examined whether consumption of cruciferous vegetables has changed accordingly, and what impact, if any, on thyroid function alteration may have resulted.
