A member asked:

Iam on levothyroxine and i have started the cabbage soup diet today is it safe to have cabbage diet soup for thyroid people?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Levothyroxine: There are substances in cabbage that can work against the thyroid gland, but these are usually greatly diminished by cooking. You can enjoy cabbage soup, but it should be a part of a healthy diet and not excessive.
