Gates D

"Eating raw cruciferous vegetables actually suppresses your thyroid's hormone production, creating fatigue, coldness in your body and a slowing of your metabolism. Cruciferous vegetables include broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, kale, mustard greens, radishes, rutabagas and turnips....

"When eating cruciferous vegetables, it's important to cook them to avoid the thyroid-suppressing properties. But what if you are committed to a raw food diet (or you simply want to enjoy them raw)?

"Body Ecology's system of health and healing has a solution for raw foodists who want to eat cabbage, kale and collards … ferment them! This gets rid of the thyroid-suppressing effect and maximizes nutrition.
