Why vegetables are not as healthy as you think.
What makes them bad?
In nature, vegetables are not designed to be eaten, so they have evolved defense mechanisms such as phytoestrogens, to disrupt reproduction in herbivores. They also contain plant defense chemicals and antinutrients like oxalates and goitrogens, which inhibit nutrient absorption and make digestion difficult
Goitrogens ( Avoid these at all costs)
Goitrogens, present in some foods, can disrupt thyroid function by inhibiting iodine uptake, which impairs the conversion of T4 (thyroxine) to Т3 (triiodothyronine). This can lead to hypothyroidism, impacting skin health, hair quality, and facial development, especially during puberty. Hypothyroidism can result in dry skin, brittle hair, and uneven facial development. Cooking goitrogen-rich foods can help reduce their goitrogenic effects, mitigating their impact on thyroid function and overall appearance. Vegetables high in Goitrogens are broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, kale, soy and peanuts.
Phytoestrogens
Phytoestrogens can disrupt hormonal balance by mimicking natural estrogen, which may negatively affect thyroid function, impairing metabolism. They can also interfere with reproductive hormones, potentially reducing fertility in both men and women. Additionally, high intake of phytoestrogens may increase the risk of hormone-sensitive cancers, such as breast cancer. Their impact on the brain could lead to mood disturbances or cognitive issues like memory problems, especially with excessive consumption over time. Some foods high in phytoestrogens include and soy product, beer, garlic sesame seeds, oats, potato’s and sweet potato’s.
literally no point in consuming them so don’t.
