Answers:
Hypothyroidism is a hormone problem. For those who already have an existing thyroid disease, excess consumption of soy (which mimics estrogen in the body) can affect thyroid function.

You might also consider eating cruciferous veggies only when cooked. Some foods, especially cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, kale, brussels sprouts, broccoli and cauliflower contain goitrogens that can cause the thyroid gland to enlarge by interfering with thyroid hormone synthesis.

Other foods that contain these chemicals include corn, sweet potatoes, lima beans, turnips, peanuts, cassava (YUCA), canola oil and soybeans.

Goitrogens in these foods are inactivated by cooking, even by light steaming, making them safe for those with thyroid problems.

It's NOT recommended to take glandular extracts (extracts from the hormone-producing glands of animals, usually cows, but sometimes sheep and pigs).

"Taking these products can actually upset the body’s delicate hormonal balance and make matters worse. These products may also contain toxic contaminants that could transmit diseases like mad cow disease.

At best, glandular extracts are a waste of money. At worst, they could be dangerous." - Dr. Andrew Weil

L-Tyrosine, the amino acid, is a precursor for thyroxine, as is iodide (kelp being the best source). Also, cut down on soy & corn and cruficerous veggies, insofar as they inhibit the thyroid. Soy, for instance has a large amount of goitregin, which can suppress thryoid. That's why they feed it to cattle to get them to slaughter weight quicker.
