Yea raw broccoli and crucierous veg. contain goitrogens but these are deactivated with even light steaming or even possibly juicing David Wolfe says. I steam mine 2 minutes and enjoy with fresh, potentiating Arugala.
Wolfes Broccoli extract(ed IC3) doesn't have goitrogens.
Listening to an interview of him just now; he made another point for MSM. Solving hormone issues, the root cause of many misdiagnosis.
Summary and *added data*:
MSM is a Methyl donor(like TMG, Betaine, B6, B9, B12, Glutathione- *a most powerful antioxidant found in raw asparagus, broccoli, avocado, spinach, watermelon and walnuts; Vitamin D3 is strongly tied to endogenous Glutathione production* ); he thinks near 50% of population has methylation problems as all mammals, he says, have been sprayed and contaminated with the "bad estrogen" DDT: and we might lack the opposing progesterone/testosterone (vigorous excersize, sun exposure, barefoot contact with earth (grounding) and element exposure help build these natural estrogen opposers; ***herbs like tongkat ali also?***). Anyways...
"Bad estrogen = missing methyl groups". Removers of bad estrogen are these methyl donors. Another great one is Melatonin, he says. Aged citrus peel or lemon or lime peel juiced good, Iodine deactivates bad estrogen. De-fated flax draws bad estrogen out of the system. Oats (and oat grass powders) are good too he says.
I like soak my oats (gotta try throwing in goji berries also - a great methylator) 24 hours with a pinch of wheat/rye powder in a jar filled with hot water and a splash of apple cider vinegar.
Indole 3 Carbinole is what he is selling extracted from Broccoli to block estrogen; I3C ->DIM (strong anti-cancer) I think he says this and juicing both would. A less powerful antagonist of bad estrogen from berries/apple is CDG a form of calcium.
Chamomile and Passionflower (in caps or tinqture) -Aromatase inhibitors stop creation of bad estrogen from hormones.
Resveratrol, Quercetin and Olive oil are other Aromatase inhibitors; allowing one to hold onto hormones longer.
