The cruciferous vegetables being harmful for thyroid is a MYTH. I was confused with this at first as well. I’ve read Izabella’s book and done some other research of my own.

I have also heard that kale may not be good for Hashimoto’s. But I found a holistic doctor here in Seattle and she said that you would need to eat a LOT of kale for it to really be damaging and that it has been exaggerated for a while. Maybe Dr. Wentz knows about new research?
What juicer do you recommend? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and thank you!
