Is it ok to eat raw brocolli in excessive quantities? (ie daily) Im wondering if the goitrogens in it will harm me overtime. Thoughts?

I eat it regularly despite a slight thryroid imbalance. Just small quantities and plenty of other things. A few years ago I read a wonderful article by Viktoria Boutenko about keeping balance in the diet by varying greens, that any negative impact was make a non-issue just by virtue of mixing things up smiling smiley.

i like the stance of mixing things up
one thing offsetting another
or having time to be metabolized etc.
there's a reason why , during lunch hour ( at school)
there was a different food item for each day ( granted the lunch was super unhealthy... but still... they understood the idea of "rotation" so i give them a point for that smiling smiley
