what's this?
report abuse
In reading past blogs I always manage to see at least one comment or more about blocking people. Damn that block button use to be my best friend...........but as time went on.......I went thru my list and took everyone off it...........the reason why was because I no longer cared.........well that doesn't sound right but what I mean is that I no longer wanted to allow others to upset me.........if they did than that was on me.........and I had to figure out what was wrong with me to allow what someone else says to bother me...........now I know that sometimes the block button is used to keep the jerks away............you know the ones who wanna fuck and when you politely turn them down they get nasty..........well those i just hit the report abuse and ignore further correspondence other than to report those emails too.........
My question is..........how many people are on your block list? What was the thing to make you push the block button? Is the majority people that you never had corresponded with or is the majority people you had talked to and gotten a long with and at a later date you blocked them for whatever reason?
I do not want specifics.......I do not want any comments like well I blocked so and so because.........this is not a blog for personal attacks.............I am just curious to know how many people do you have on block and why?
for me..........the answer is zero...........I went in a long time ago and took everyone off my block list.........a lot had already been canceled but was still on my list...........I no longer allow myself to get drawn into the drama, bs, or name calling...........and I very seldom answer an email with a wanna fuck.......my profile tells it all so they shouldnt expect one from me............lol
If you don't know how to see who and how many is on your block list go to your home page...........by your picture it will say account settings......and than go to title blocked users and it will come up..........
Ok tell all..............I am betting women have more blocked people then men do..........

they probably do have more blocked. there are a couple on mine that i have blocked at one time or another, but mostly spammers. and there is a bunch of them. other than that, not many. i at least let people disagree with me, just don't get real nasty or continually act stupid.
Nov 20 @ 3:34PM
I have zero blocked- actually, I accidentally blocked myself once but... that probably doesn't count- does it???
Nov 20 @ 3:34PM

Nov 20 @ 3:38PM
I have 16 on my block list. Just had to block another loser this morning.
Nov 20 @ 3:41PM
I had at least 20 blocked....all spammers...and All are gone from this site!!! (Under those U.N.'s that is
Nov 20 @ 4:16PM
There are 29 names on my block list right now. I block the obvious spammers that email me.
Nov 20 @ 4:36PM
I have ten blocked at the moment, most are incantations of cocktail. Others are usually rude, obnoxious and hateful commentators on my blogs. They tend to be people who can' deal with my blunt opinions that have anger management issues and take everything personally.
Nov 20 @ 5:15PM
All I have on my blocked list are a bunch of assholes.
Nov 20 @ 5:31PM
I've got 14 on my block list...and they are the ones who wrote asking to cam or to fuck, and when I told them "no", they wrote back whining and bitching. So, they got blocked.
Nov 20 @ 5:42PM
I don't have any blocked...but I used to consider the delete key my best friend........
Ignore, delete, forget....forgotten.
Quite a few on that list, but none of them have enough control over my thoughts or feelings for me to bother taking the time to block them.
Nov 20 @ 5:48PM
Over 100; just mostly men who felt I wanted to see their crusty old balls on cam, either wanted personal info, couldnt take a hint the first time, felt the need to attack me out of nowhere or thought that cybering wasnt violating marriage vows.
I prune often and usually if theyre over 3 mos gone or cancelled accounts I release them back into the wild
Nov 20 @ 6:48PM
I count 42 spamers nd whapper!
Nov 20 @ 6:52PM
Do I win something for having the most? I currently have 77 and it is subject to go up at any moment!! It went up by two yesterday. I am fully willing to admit that I'm a contrary bitch and can't always get along or play well with others. And yeah I know I could just ignore and delete the emails but ya know, after awhile I figure why should I have to? Keep in mind that number has been amassed over the period of 10 years. Considering the number of assholes this place seems to accumulate, I feel that's really a conservative number!
Nov 20 @ 6:53PM
Damn, by the time I could type that, Luna had posted and beat me way out on the number!!! Give me a few days, at the rate it's been going lately I'm sure I'll catch up! lol
Nov 20 @ 7:02PM
I only have asshole's blocked on my list also, no fucking loss, just a gain
Nov 20 @ 7:12PM
This a good original post, greenie for you!
I don't block spammers/scammers. I can see where women would need to but not men. Most of the time this is to eliminate fire fights on my blogs when they get personal with commentators and it is usually not an issue involving me. If I get singled out in my blogs or others (multiple times) in a personal way as opposed to expressing a different POV, I zap them.
This post made me curious to see who was on my list. I then noticed something when my memory banks kicked in. With one exception, the men blitzed me with hate mail and the women were snipers attacking me in my blogs and other people's, but the women really never sent any hateful emails to me.
The ladies may have sent strongly worded emails to me, but they were fair, they just weirded out after on my blogs and others.
Now granted, this is just one person's opinion and that and a buck will get you a cup of coffee at Mickey D's if you can cover the tax, but the people on my block list IMO all have significant anger management issues.
Nov 20 @ 7:24PM
I have exactly 3..but only cuz Cocktail is bye bye.. but I think the other three are his profiles as well.
In 4 years, 3 people blocked and 5 people removed from my friends list. Not a bad average huh?
Nov 20 @ 7:36PM
I currently have 25 names on my block list...and all of the people (mainly guys) on my block list still have current profiles.
I would have to say that at least half of my block list consist of morons who kept sending me the same damn email each and every week...and I got sick of receiving it.
Nov 20 @ 7:38PM
Like I said earlier...I had over 20 blocked!!! But to be honest...I don't remember blocking any....of them!!!
I do report Spam....though!! I'm wondering when I report spam....does that person go on my block list?
Nov 20 @ 7:44PM
I'm wondering when I report spam....does that person go on my block list?
No... There isn't a damn thing done when you report spam...... literally... not a damn thing!
Nov 20 @ 7:45PM
I have O blocked. What can I say.
Nov 20 @ 9:51PM
Don't have a clue how many are blocked. I blocked spammers who sent me more then three e-mails in one day. I just got tired of hitting the delete button on some of them. Then there was the guy who kept asking if I had sex with my dog
I blocked him and he will stay there as long as I am on this site.
Nov 20 @ 10:26PM
I have 742 blocked.
Most of them have refused to wear panties. I know this because I can see them through my computer screen. Some have even refused to wear tinfoil hats while typing...an unforgiveable offense...
Sometimes I get sooo angry ...I could rip the skin of my entire body...
I've never blocked Smelly Pussy because at least she wears her panties and tinfoil hat.
Nov 20 @ 10:48PM
I just checked with the Mod, and apparently I am blocked and so are 733 others here at AMD.
So I decided to block the Moderator too. I feel better now.
Nov 20 @ 11:34PM
@ Borty
Nov 20 @ 11:56PM
And then there were 78. *sigh*
Nov 20 @ 11:58PM
I have like 6 blocked... I had one on here who kept bugging me He would keep getting new accounts just to do it.. I think 4 out of the 6 are just him..lol
Nov 21 @ 1:34AM
You know if i was getting lots of letters from someone I guess i would have a block list................and I think a block list is a good thing...........thanks for all the comments...........
Nov 21 @ 11:03AM
None so far. But have been told I am more of an irritant than most.
Think I have been blocked once or twice..

It's probably one of those things you either love or hate, but I happen to love horseradish. I know I'm not alone, because every year, approximately 24 million pounds of horseradish root get processed in this country.
Folks in Collinsville, Ill., really know how to express their love of this culinary treat. They host the annual International Horseradish Festival, where some of the events include a root toss, a horseradish eating contest and a horseradish recipe contest. I'm not sure how the eating contest works, but I can only imagine the contestants must have cast-iron stomachs! To me, a little goes a long way.
My favorite way to use horseradish is to serve it with prime rib or corned beef. I always cook a lot of corned beef so I will have leftovers for sandwiches, casseroles or maybe a breakfast skillet with some scrambled eggs and potatoes. If you're a horseradish fan, I hope you'll find something to add to your favorites here today. (Pat me on the back for omitting the recipe for horseradish ice cream that I found!)
I know of a few people who make a party out of preparing their own horseradish. They make a LOT of it! But if you happen to obtain a small amount of horseradish root, you can try your hand at preparing it yourself. Sometimes Whole Foods has horseradish root in its produce section...

As the temperature falls and the leaves start to crackle under foot, British minds turn towards comfort food – and there's nothing more comforting than a traditional suet pudding.
Suet, as in, beef fat?

Why yes, actually.

Editor's note: Tom Long is the chief executive officer of MillerCoors. He wrote this column in response to a CNN Opinion piece by Steve Hindy of The Brooklyn Brewery: "Don't let big brewers win beer wars."
(CNN) - The other day, the industry group representing small brewers issued its latest definition of what qualifies as a "craft" beer. Based on our size, that definition excluded us, even though we brew some of the most popular craft beers in the marketplace.
We respect the fact that some of our fellow brewers would want to differentiate themselves, but we're convinced that the ultimate assessment of our beers will not come from an industry organization, but instead from America's beer drinkers.
We know that no matter what style of beer it is, we will ultimately be judged by the quality of our beers. We like that, because we are confident that the quality of our beers stacks up well versus that of any brewer of any size, anywhere.

Remember back in May of 2011 when we gave away all our stuff and road-tripped down to Florida in a Judgment Day caravan to warn people about the impending Rapture? How about 153 days after that when the world similarly failed to go kaplooey?
Shockingly enough, we used those opportunities to ask people how they'd chow down if they knew it was going to be their last meal on Earth. Seeing as we're up against Armageddon (again), according to the Mayan calendar (sort of), here's a little inspiration for a final feast.

Baseball: Deppermann, East Lake crush Northeast
East Lake's Brad Deppermann blanked Northeast and led the Eagles into Friday night's Class 7A region final against Melbourne High. ERIC HORCHY/STAFF
Eric Horchy | Suncoast News
May 7, 2014
May 7, 2014 at 12:40 AM
— The night belonged to Brad Deppermann and the senior took full advantage of nearly every imaginable opportunity.
East Lake's ace pitcher set that tone immediately but did so from the batter's box, rocking the very first pitch of the night over the left-center field fence.
"You know, that's the first time all year I gave the green light on the first pitch," East Lake coach Dan Genna said of Deppermann's leadoff homer. "Obviously he executed, and game over."
While East Lake and Northeast still had to play out all seven innings of Tuesday's Class 7A region semifinal, of course, Deppermann's shot did end up being the eventual game-winner. The other eight runs the Eagles tacked on in their 9-0 victory essentially amounted to�style points – or perhaps a season's worth of pent up frustration being released.
"Our first loss this season was at this field and we weren't going to let it be our last," Deppermann said of East Lake's 0-3 record this year against District 7A-9 champ Northeast. "We just came in here to win."
In addition to putting the Eagles on the board, it was all Deppermann making sure the Vikings stayed off it. The hard-throwing righty carried a no-hitter into the fifth inning and mowed down 11 Northeast batters, upping his season strikeout total to 90 over 67 innings. The three-hit shutout is the second huge performance in as many games for Deppermann. He pitched seven strong frames during East Lake's 2-1, 10-inning quarterfinal win at Sarasota High last week.
"The way he pitched against Sarasota's lineup, he was ready," Genna said of his confidence in Deppermann. "He had that little bump where he put a couple runners on, but other than that he was flawless."
Northeast never advanced a runner past second and only got two to that base all night. Nine-hole hitter Kobe Hartley broke up the no-hit bid in the fifth with a two-out, two-strike double to right field.
Deppermann's numbers with the bat ended up just as impressive his pitching stats. He came up a triple shy of hitting for the cycle on a 4-for-5, two-RBI�night from the plate.
East Lake hadn't experienced an overall offensive outburst like Tuesday since a 9-3 Lee Byers Invitational Tournament win over IMG Academy in mid-February. The Eagles combined for 11 hits and it's the first time this season they've produced back-to-back double-digit hit games.
"We're peaking at the right time offensively and defensively," Deppermann said. "Everything's clicking right now."
Two other Eagles turned in multi-hit games Tuesday. Andrew Monahan's 3-for-4 night included a third-inning, two-run homer to dead center that gave East Lake and Deppermann a commanding 4-0 lead. Junior right fielder Ian Lisle went 2-for-3 with a walk and run scored.
East Lake's aggressive and effective offense forced Northeast into its bullpen earlier than desired. Starter Josh Hale exited after two innings and trailing 2-0. Three other Vikings pitchers were called upon but only managed keep East Lake off the board once, in the fifth inning. The Eagles added an unearned run in the fourth and the sixth to go ahead 6-0, then plated three more for good measure in the seventh.
The victory now sends East Lake to its third region final in school history and first since 2002's Class 5A state runner-up squad.
Northeast entered Tuesday's game riding a 17-game winning streak and trying to reach its first region final since 2006.
The Eagles will play Friday night against Melbourne High. The Bulldogs beat Stuart Martin County on Tuesday, 5-2. The game should be hosted by Melbourne because it entered regional play as a district champion and East Lake is a runner-up. As of Tuesday night, however, the Florida High School Athletic Association's Class 7A bracket listed East Lake as the host team because of its position in the bracket.
According to FHSAA Bylaw 18.104.22.168, Subsection (c): "In the regional championships, the school on the top line of the bracket in each game shall be designated the host school. If, however, the school on the top line of the bracket served as a host school in the regional semifinals and the school on the bottom line of the bracket was a visitor in the regional semifinals, the school on the bottom line of the bracket will be designated the host school for the regional final.
In any case, when a district champion plays a district runner-up, the district champion always shall be designated the host school."

More than 4 billion people are expected to watch the London Olympics—and more than a billion people will view events, get updates and check results on digital devices, including PCs, mobile phones and tablets, according to a new report by eMarketer.
The report, "The London Olympics: Marketers in the Starting Blocks," analyzes findings from dozens of third-party research providers and interviews with industry executives, exploring the prospects for brands aiming to make the most of the London 2012 opportunity, including:
"Like media owners and consumers, marketers too are poised to make a quantum leap for London 2012, using digital platforms as never before to inform and engage audiences," says eMarketer in the new report, "The London Olympics: Marketers in the Starting Blocks."
The big question is how much viewing and information-gathering will take place on digital platforms. Research from Deloitte indicates that between 15% and 26% of internet users in France, Germany, the UK and US will watch at least some of the games on a PC or tablet—and in Germany, nearly half will watch via the mobile web.
Key Takeaways from "The London Olympics: Marketers in the Starting Blocks":
With weeks to go before the games, it's too soon to know which advertisers will score big wins, which social campaigns will catch fire, and which mobile strategies will capture the public imagination. But the outlook for digital marketing during London 2012 highlights trends relevant to brand owners everywhere, especially those who rely on event sponsorship or tie-ins to generate impact.

Raw cruciferous vegetables: how much is too much?
Caffeine During Pregnancy
How much is too much?
Raw cruciferous vegetables: how much is too much?
From the healthiest beverage to the healthiest food: Dark green leafy vegetables—cruciferous vegetables, cabbage family vegetables, like broccoli, Brussel sprouts, collards, and kale. How could one possibly eat too much kale? Well, there are natural goitrogenic compounds in this family of vegetables that can interfere with thyroid function in people with marginal iodine intake. They can block the thyroid's uptake of iodine, but the answer is not to avoid these super healthy foods, we just to get enough iodine in our diet, as I've detailed in past volumes. Still, though, you can overdo anything.
How much is too much? I specify raw here because an enzyme that releases these compounds is deactivated by cooking so we don't have to worry about cooked cruciferous, but how much raw is too much? How many cups of coleslaw a day is too much, for example? Five cups a day? Ten? Fifteen? Twenty? Or can you go up to 25 cups of coleslaw a day, every day, for months at a time?
The New England Journal of Medicine: coma induced by raw bok choy. She was eating about 3 pounds a day every day, which means… 15 cups a day is definitely too much. In the two months before she was admitted to the intensive care unit in respiratory failure, she had consumed about a thousand cups of raw bok choy.
Now each cruciferous vegetable has a different amount of these compounds, so you could probably get away with 50—five zero—cups of raw cauliflower a day, but just 3 cups of raw mustard greens a day is too much.
To see any graphs, charts, graphics, images, and quotes to which Dr. Greger may be referring watch the above video. This is just an approximation of the audio contributed by veganmontreal.

Sounds like your assessment of excessive amounts of cruciferous vegetables is based upon one person's experience. Is that a fair assessment?
Though it was a case report (and so by definition described only a single patient), it is consistent with data going back more than 50 years, when researchers in Finland blamed the consumption of milk from cows grazing on cruciferous plants for contributing to the national epidemic of goiter. Don't get me wrong, I recommend everyone eat greens every day (except those on the drug coumadin who should first ask their physician about re-titrating their dose). Greens are probably the healthiest foods on the planet–but a thousand cups is too much!
Can you explain further why the drug coumadin would react with kale. If someone has too much iron in their blood, haemochromotosis, would they suffer from eating kale. Is there an immediate reaction to too much kale or is it a slow build-up in the blood system that would create symptoms?
ps – kale chips are on the way!
Great questions–seriously! One can eat dark green leafy vegetables while one is on Coumadin; one just has to titrate their greens consumption to their Coumadin dose. Coumadin (a.k.a. warfarin, a.k.a. rat poison) is a blood thinner that works by interfering with the action of vitamin K. So if all the sudden you eat lots of greens (excellent sources of K) you can overwhelm the drug's ability to keep it from clotting your blood normally. So we should all be eating lots of greens; folks on coumadin just need to keep their greens consumption relatively stable and make sure their physician matches that level of consumption with the appropriate dose. Or even better, one can eat a healthy diet and help avoid the kinds of conditions (like heart attacks) that might lead to one having to take these sorts of drugs in the first place! :)
And no, one does not have to worry about plant-based sources of iron in terms of iron overload since your body is able to restrict absorption. Blood-based ("heme") iron is absorbed whether our body likes it or not, however, and can indeed contribute to the development of that iron overload disease in susceptible individuals. Eat your kale! More about iron here.
And I can't wait for the chips! For those that missed it, I'm offering to mail a complimentary copy of my latest DVD to anyone who sends me (address here) their very own homemade kale chips–now that's what I call veggie booty! :)
The oven is on! Seriously Dr. Greger, I've been on Synthroid for 30 years (since age 37) so do I need to worry about iodine and thyroid function? I'm well controlled on medication. I don't do salt, so my source of iodine is what's in the liquid from Eden Organic NAS beans. Thanks.
I have yet to make kale chips successfully. Can anyone direct me to a good reliable and tasty recipe?
1 C raw cashews
1 red bell pepper
1 small/roma tomato
1/8 cup lemon juice
1/4 C nutritional yeast
1/8 tsp salt or to taste
pepper to taste
Blend in high-speed blender. Coat kale leaves with blended mixture. Dry in dehydrator.
Adjust all ingredients to your taste – e.g., if you like it tangier, use more lemon juice.
Dr. Greger: Do you consider 10 cups of cruciferous to much at day? Is there a link between them and inflammation?
According to this study published in the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 10 cups a day on a regular basis is probably the limit for raw kale–my second favorite vegetable!
Please tell what is your favorite vegetable? You can't leave us hanging!! Also is that cooked or raw?
I would also like to know why kale is not your favorite vegetable and what is?
According to the Agricultural Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture database, 10 cups of kale is like 670 grams. I double any human can eat so much on a daily basis.
I just "discovered" your site ! really enjoy the videos.
It just made me think of all the euphoria there is with drinking green smoothies and juices lately ( which I love) how much is too much kale for example in one day?
and will doing a one month or two month juice fast for example be harmful in the long run if too many greens are used?
Please see my kale response to walfaro immediately above–thanks for your question!
Interesting video. I am wondering if you are familiar with the Wahls diet (http://youtu.be/KLjgBLwH3Wc or http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Wahls-Foundation/150956531629073?sk=app_208412272531040 ) and if so do you believe given the information that you researched that she is recommending too many greens?
I'm not familiar with Dr. Wahl's dietary recommendations, but I liked her recent commentary on self-empowerment in the Journal of General Internal Medicine (one of my favorite journals): The Seventy Percent Solution.
Wow! What a great read.
This link is dead. Do you have another? Thanks!
Also, please check out my associated blog post: http://nutritionfacts.org/blog/2012/04/12/the-best-detox/!
Please check out my associated blog post, The Best Detox!
My husband and I have begun drinking green smoothies containing raw kale…maybe 1/2 a bunch or more in the vitamix along with fruit to make it more palatable. We really feel this is a easy way to get greens consistently into our diet. By the way, we are totally convinced that whole food, plant-based is the healthiest form of diet. No need to convince us of that. My question is, since my husband (age 71) is on thyroid medication should he avoid completely all forms of raw cruciferous vegetables?
Certain veggies, especially the cruciferous veggies, contain natural chemicals called goitrogens that can interfere with thyroid hormone synthesis. Other foods that contain these chemicals include corn, sweet
potatoes, lima beans, turnips, peanuts, cassava, and soybeans.
Most of these goitrogens are not of any real significance unless they are consumed in very large amounts or there is coexisting iodine deficiency. So, while it is theoretically possible for someone to consume enough of these foods that they may have an effect, for most people it is not an issue. However, when consumed raw, as part of a smoothie, there is the possibility of there being an impact from them, especially if the person
is consuming several of these smoothies a day. These goitrogens are inactivated by cooking, even by light steaming, so
there is no need to forego them when consumed in that style.
Rami, are goitrogens in soybeans and sweet potatoes, etc. also inactivated by cooking? How about peanuts, which are not steamed, but roasted?
Generally yes, but this is only a concern for those with pre existing thyroid conditions. I would not worry about it otherwise.
Goitrogens are chemicals in food such as kale, cruciferous vegetables and soybeans. Many, but not all, green vegetables contain some levels of goitrogens. Even when eaten frequently, foods containing goitrogens will not cause thyroid disease in healthy people. You need only monitor goitrogen intake after you have been diagnosed with thyroid disease. Kale and green vegetables are very healthy foods, rich in nutrients, and do not need to be avoided completely. If you have thyroid disease, continue to eat these foods cooked. Dietary guidelines given by your doctor should take precedence…..Mr. Ghandi
You have echoed my response
Dear Dr. Greger,
Thank you for the brilliant posts on this subject. Several years back I published a paper [Food Alone May Not Provide Sufficient Micronutrients for Preventing Deficiency] open access http://www.jissn.com/content/3/1/51 I performed diet analysis on 10-men & 10-women according to actual weighed foods they consumed over 3-7-day periods. None of the 20-healthy subjects were consuming near the reference range iodine levels. It was the only micronutrient 100% were deficient. I declare 20-healthy randomly chosen subjects do not represent the whole. It is this note that asks if the potential cause for many disease have a dietary component complexly resulting in hypothyroidism in large populations?
We would enjoy hearing your view…
Bill Misner
Hello Dr. Bill, Dr. Greger addresses the iodine concern in a couple videos. These videos may answer your question.
Please research the Gap's diet for clearing up adrenal and thyroid related issues!!
There has been no scientific studies/research done on the GAPS diet. Any evidence that it "clears up" adrenal and thyroid issues is purely anectdotal. 85% of the GAPS diet is made out of meats, fish, eggs, fermented dairy and vegetables (some well-cooked, some fermented and some raw). This diet is too high in saturated fat and cholesterol to be healthy.
Good point Dr. Sanchez, but I think that vademonbreun is saying what you are (to a point) that there are no scientific studies on the GAPS diet, and that someone should conduct some studies to determine its effects on adrenal and thyroid health.
I, for one, wish that there were a site similar to this one on thyroid health. From my few forays into researching thyroid health it seems that, just like in the health and wellness nutrition field, there is a lot of bunky claims being made often to people who are quite desperate for relief.
It frightens me that doctors are still afraid of saturated fat (the healthy kind). I lost 50 pounds and all my health markers increased when I started consuming fat for 70% of my daily diet. Please don't go off what you learned in school. Take some time to research.
Dr. Greger, is there any danger in consuming too much greens because of vitamin K. Almost all green leafy food easily contain daily dosages – and vitamin K is said to have an impact on blood clotting..
My husband and I recently depressed our thyroid function by juicing a large handful of fresh kale from my garden every day with our smoothies. After 4 or 5 weeks of daily juicing we began to lose energy and stamina, and developed brain fog. When we complained to our primary care doc he drew blood and discovered that our TSH was high and free T4 was low. I should mention that we didn't have much iodine in our diets. We started eating dulse and a little seaweed salad every day for iodine and left off the kale–we are recovered now after about a month….who knew?!
Wow, That must have been quite the experience for you guys! Glad that you were able to adjust your diet and recover rather quickly it sounds like.
As someone with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, I have read that raw kale and other raw cruciferous veggies can have goitrogenic effects on the thyroid (the ability to cause a goiter and slow down the thyroid, much like anti-thyroid drugs do), and can even affect the absorption of synthetic thyroid hormone medicaiton. Apparently, raw juicing goitrogenic vegetables ends up providing especially high concentrations of goiter-promoting ingredients.
Luckily, I have also read and been informed that the enzymes involved in the formation of goitrogenic substances in some plant foods can be partially destroyed by heat. Which is a good thing b/c that means that these yummy health foods can still be eaten if they are steamed or cooked. And, even in moderation in there raw form.
How much kale did each one of you have daily?
Почему без титров? =( печаль какая то выходит
Can an overdose of raw cruciferous vegetables (kale, collards, etc.) in smoothies cause the feeling of serious acid-burn tongue similar to same from overload of raw pineapple, but lasting for a week? Is there any ingredient we could add to the smoothie that would neutralize this effect? Any cure besides the tincture of time and time off those smoothies?
Hi, Dr. Greger,
I recently adopted a whole, plant-based vegan diet after years of reading the research. However, I have Hashimoto's Disease and regularly take levothyroxine to mitigate the effects of this. Lately, my TSH levels have gone back up — have you seen any evidence to suggest that the addition of raw greens in smoothies could produce this? I am also a green tea drinker in the morning and am wondering if this could all be interacting. Any advice you may have to give would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
NH Girl
ctrl-F search on this page for "TSH" the answer is, more Iodine and cook or skip certain veggies.
When I vitamix-juice, I juice 1 pound of spinach, 1/4 pound of kale, 1-1.5 pounds of berries and sometimes add chia seeds and/or parsley. I drink this over about 8-12 hours. Is this too much?
So, Dr. Greger, would you recommend against drinking raw kale juice regularly? Thank you.
dr. Greger, I currently am on armor thyroid, since I had a complete thyroidectomy ten years ago. Just started sprouting broccoli and i eat a lot of homemade kale chips. do you see a problem with eating about a quarter cup of broccoli sprout and a cup of kale chips a day. I have a great recipe for kale chips which includes miso, nutritional yeast and turmeric.
I juice daily, so always add a double handful of kale, spinach or another leafy green veg. I
read somewhere that revolving your cruciferous vegetables can minimise
any side effects, so I use a different handful every day. But it seems I could be wrong! I must check on your iodine posts.
If 10 cups of greens is ok, does it matter wether it is juiced or eaten as a salad or steamed?
The study included 293 cases of thyroid cancer and 354 population controls. We found that high consumption of cruciferous vegetables was associated with thyroid cancer among women with low iodine intake (OR=1.86; 95% CI: 1.01-3.43 for iodine intake < 96 µg/day). The high consumption of cruciferous vegetables among Melanesian women, a group with mild iodine deficiency, may contribute to explain the exceptionally high incidence of thyroid cancer in this group.
I am hoping you can provide more info on which plants contain more of these compounds than others… My wife loves arugula what would the daily limit be?
Thank you, Dr. Greger, for your contributions here on NutritionFacts.org. Great stuff. I've been consuming one or two small bunches of watercress daily since I read about how it helps with exercise recovery. How much watercress would be too much? Would eating dulse seaweed help balance it's goitrogenic effect?
Can you tell me if there are any true studies showing the danger of too much kale comsumption and excessive thallium intake?
Please see link below pertaining to the idea:
Thank you!
Me too. I just read this: http://www.motherjones.com/tom-philpott/2015/07/kale-silent-killer (I do have to say, nutrition advice that concludes "everything in moderation" makes me wary.)
I started using the dark greens in the nutribullet for three weeks running. About two large cups a day. My breathing started to get very poor, almost like I was caught for breath. I've had my thyroid checked with my gp but she said it's seems to be fine and the breath test was fine and high. I've backed off using any greens except fresh mint for now. Waiting for my breathing to correct itself still. Is this usual do you know? Thanks.
I wonder if it is the sulforaphane that inhibits iodine uptake by the thyroid gland? Is sulforaphane's effectiveness reduced by cooking? Thanks!
Instead of 55 cups a day, would like to know about reasonable amounts of raw cruciferous vegies and thyroid and how much iodine to counteract effects if you're a vegan. (Following your daily 12.) Especially if you have borderline low thyroid. Many thanks!
Hey, medical question.
Im 26 , female, and have had chronic constipation for well over 7 years (and even before that wasn't regular), most of the time I need to take suppositories as oral laxatives do.not.work.
I'm being tested for hyprothyroidism (waiting for results), I eat a 100% whole food plant based diet (and vegan for 3 years), plenty of greens etc everyday. I was looking up any diet related intervention to help with hypothyroidism and constipation…trouble is I either get told to eat more fibre (..how? lol, my diet IS fibre) or cut out lots of amazing foods like spinach, cauliflower etc, and i'm wondering if my large intake of fruits, beans, nuts, greens and veggies are making my condition worse.
what advice would you suggest? Not sure I can take another doctors appointment where they throw another unhelpful and chemical ridden laxative at me.
thankyou for your time!
Hello NutritionFacts.org, I have not been able to find any information from your website on Hashimoto's Disease. I guess what l would like to know is making the change to a plant based diet, can l be hopeful that my auto immune disease be treated and possibly get off the Thoroxine that l am currently on?
passthebeans: I don't know if there are any specific studies on Hashimotos and diet or not. But here's a thought for you: Eating a diet of whole plant foods has helped lots of people with various auto immune diseases. Seems worth trying. Furthermore, even if you were not able to get off the Thoroxine, switching to a healthy diet would help keep you healthy in other areas of your life so that your life doesn't get even more complicated by other health issues. Something to think about. Would you like some pointers to resources that help people make the change?
Thank you Thea for the heart warming advise, l have been following a plant based diet of veg, fruit, nuts, seeds, beans and mushrooms for nearly 4 months now. I have experienced the plant based diet to be more beneficial. Perhaps some time in the future l maybe able to answer my own questions.
passthebeans: Keep us posted. I'm thinking good thoughts for you.
I lost my teeth due to bone loss (undiagnosed Diabetes). I did get dentures, but they never fit well, plus I couldn't get past that plastic (?) piece that goes between the right side and left side of the upper denture. It made me gag, and no matter how much I did try, I just couldn't tolerate it. I would love to get the new complete "denture" implants. But there's no way I could ever afford it. Not even with a payment plan. I love raw vegetables, but obviously can no longer eat them. So, I have to cook them to "death". So, there goes the nutrition of the food. Even if you only steam them. So I've opted to juicing. I haven't started yet. I did buy a slow masticating juicer. Able to handle everything I want to incorporate into my new eating lifestyle. Everyone is concerned with my wanting to go on a 30 day juice fast, followed by juicing all the time and limiting the solid food I eat. My plan is simple; go on the green juicing diet for the 30 days, and then start incorporating beans, nuts, and of course only eating organic. My neighbour has a large veg. garden every year, but she doesn't eat the veggies, I do. I think I've got her talked into doing it for me; her: short term to detox, but she say's she couldn't ever give up meat. I'm not going to eat meat or dairy, I hope. I must confess, I'm going to have a problem giving up yogurt. Perhaps I can make my own @ home from organic milk/cream (?), whatever it takes to make it. I am also going to learn how to "can" fruits and veggies. This way I'll have them when fresh (organic) is not available in the store. Options ? , opinions ? , answers ? Thanks, Jolae
I forgot, juicing will be better for me than what I have been doing. Food wise. That's why I don't understand the concern. Jolae

We spent the extra for the GOOD ASKO dishwasher. Problem is, it leaks when on the pots and pans setting. This has been going on since we purchased. We skip the setting or put a container down to catch the water that leaks for various reasons.
We've had at least 4 repair calls, tech advisors talking to us and the dishwasher was deemed non-repairable. A month ago it was decided that they (ASKO) would replace it. Everyone agreed. We've been WAITING, and WAITING, and WAITING. We have to chase them. They seem to be suffering from Alzheimer's because we have to remind them there is an active case, that they have had all the notes they need from Appliance Repair. Yet, no one seems to be able to pull the trigger to replace our dishwasher.
After a month, 20 minutes on hold, it is now determined that their (ASKO) senior tech needs to come and evaluate. Meanwhile, we sitll have a leaky, EXPENSIVE dishwasher.
Pass the buck, play ingnorant, stall, delay. That seems to be how they have all been trained to give customer service. Perhaps they hope we will go away and get worn out and put up with having a $1500 dishwasher that has leaked from the beginning. Don't bet on it ASKO. I will promise to recommend to friends who ask which brand to buy for their next dishwasher, "Anything but ASKO, their customer service stinks!"

How can I make the end of playdates less stressful for everyone?
My daughter's friends generally behave well during playdates at our house, but many of them turn into complete monsters when their parents arrive to pick them up. I find this very frustrating and sometimes hesitate to invite them over again. How can I make the end of playdates less stressful for everyone?

My dd has a friend who has a VERY hard time with playdates ending. When you think about it, it must be very frustrating. Imagine you were at a friends house, enjoying her company over a cup of coffee, and her dh walked in and said "This visit is over. Please get up, wash your dishes, and leave." I think what helps us most it to shift the focus away from a NEGATIVE action (ending a visit and leaving) to a POSITIVE action, getting ready to see Mom and do somehing else. Usually toward the start of a playdate, I have the kids prepare a small craft. Yesterday, my dd and her friend decorated paper plates to look like spider puppets (I taped popsicle sticks to them as handles). We also talked about how much her Mom would like to see it! About 15 minutes before the end of the playdate, I had the kids get ready for her friend's Mom to come for our "show". We put away the toys, packed up the friend's things, and we all put our shoes and coats on. When the Mom arrived, we sang "Itsy-Bitsy Spider" with our spider puppets! Then we walked our friend out to her car. We made everything not about LEAVING and the playdate ENDING, but about showing Mom her spider and bringing "Miss Spider" to her new home. On other playdates, we have stopped our indoor play, cleaned up and gathered belongings so that we'd have time to play outside before the Mom arrived. Or if the weather is bad, we do this so we can have a "Music Show" or "Music Parade". This still makes the task "clean up & put you coat on so we can do something fun" instead of "The fun is over. Clean up so you can go away". It also helps if the Mom frames the pick-up in a positive way too. Instead of saying "The playdate is over. We have to go now." She should focus on where they are going or what they will do. "Let's go home and make a web for your spider!" or "It's time to go to the grocery store, will you help me pick out things for our dinner?". I firmly believe that the secret to managing children's behavior is to have a good marketing strategy and put a positive spin on everything!posted 11/29/2006 by Lolli_coomassie
My daughter was always crying and having a tantrum when it was time to leave her playdate's house. Giving a time warning just wasn't enough. Now after everything is cleaned up, shoes are on, and we are ready to go we all play duck, duck, goose before we go. This seems to work well as a signal that our time at a playdate is over. She also knows that if she screams and cries we won't play duck, duck, goose. It's worked so far so good.posted 01/23/2007 by Aunt Kiki
My DD's best friend was having a hard time when she left our house, or when we left her house. (sobbing tantrums) When the playdate starts, we talk about how we will eventually part, and how it's ok to feel sad, but it is nice to go home, etc. I start giving lots of "warnings" that playtime will end (usually at 15 minutes to the playdate end. Finally, about 3 minutes left, we set the microwave timer to go off. "When you hear the 'beep-beeps', it's time to go home!" (Again, with periodic reminders/count down). Most days, it works. We also use the timer at the end of the day so my DD doesn't have meltdowns when it is time to get ready for bed. On nights we "forget" to set the timer and we tell her it is time for bed, she tells us "No, we didn't hear the beep-beeps." 30 seconds on the timer usually does the trick and she is fine to transition to bed time rituals.posted 10/30/2006 by angelica b
When we are ready to leve a friend's house, I just tell my daughter it is time to go. SHe usually says ok, but if she doens't want to leave, I just tell her she will be able to come back. No problems. On the rare occasion that she has thrown a fit about it, I just tell her that she definitely won't get her way acting like that and if that is how she is going to act, maybe she shouldn't go back. She immediately stops and there is no further temper tantrum. I don't need to bribe her with candy or toys or anything. I have a problem with bribing kids for good behavior. What is going to happen when the kids get older and candy and stickers won't work? I used to teach high school, and I have personaly dealt with "appeasing parents", and these kids will never be able to make in real life if they don't learn how to accept "No" and learn to use self control. Trust me, it's not pretty!!!posted 09/17/2007 by katiejack1
Hello! Have you given whomever is there a warning such as in 10mins your mommy will be here. And then about 3 mins I say okay time to clean up as your mommy will be here in x amt of minsposted 04/11/2006 by Munchkin122998+1
I asked a child therapist about this once. My daughter threw a tantrum everytime we leave someones house. The therapist said to have a sticker chart in the car or my purse and give her a sticker each time we leave. When she reaches a certain number of stickers (we started at 2 and slowly increased to 10) she gets a treat. At the beginning of a new chart I buy the treat and have it in the car so she can see it but can't have it until she reaches 10 stickers. Right now we have a Barbie fishing pole set sitting in my car. Now she asks to go places so she can leave without crying and get a sticker! If they are other children coming to your home you could keep a chart for them at your house, or have their parents encorporate this idea. It worked like a charm for us!posted 01/31/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
What has never failed for me, whether it is a playdate, playing in the gym after school or anything that might stir up a meltdown like you're describing is to always prepare my children of what to expect and what time we will be leaving (this works wonders for many things too- especially bedtime). "We will be going home at 4:00 (and show them my watch or a clock). "When the big hand is on the 12 and the little hand is on the 4..." In addition, I always stick to it and begin giving them updates around 3p or so in fifteen minute increments. "OK. Kids, we're going home in an hour, 45 mins, 1/2 hour, etc. By using this method, I have rarely had a problem (and on the one or two occasions that I have, I simply head out to the car... and guess who's following (and in good spirits:)posted 08/11/2008 by JonMatthew
to frustrated and angry- find a new friend for your child. If the other parent asks why you don't have playdates, politely explain that your child doesn't deserve to be bullied and until that child changes, they will continue to not see each other. This will be a good example for your child so that when he is older he can walk away from bullies.posted 08/05/2008 by PRINCESSG55
My daughter has had some trouble with transitions, something that I have always used with her is a 'two minute' warning. This has been great, because it gives her time to 'wrap up' what she is doing... and usually she will tell me that she is done before the two minutes is up. She usually just wants to 'put her babies to bed', or do something to 'finish' what she is doing. This has been great! She has hyperthyroidism and her medication makes her more tired and emotional than usual at times, but even when she is frustrated, she will remember the 'two minutes' and finish up what she is doing. The thing to be cautious of is the line between 'finishing up' and 'stalling'. I use this with most transitions, if she is likely to fight it or not. Using it when there isn't a problem helps her remember it when there is!posted 08/06/2008 by a BabyCenter Member
I have to agree with Munchkin122998+1. Sometimes all you honestly have to do is give the child a reminder. "Okay kids, your parents will be here in 10 minutes. Are you excited to tell them what you did today?" may be enough to motivate them to become excited and not upset. But as each child is different (not to mention moods playing a factor) it is hard to say what will work without fail.posted 11/24/2012 by Amorra Aeterna

Kevin Bacon on Why He's Transitioning to TV
By ROBERT PACE
January 04, 2013
Kevin Bacon is known in the entertainment world as a film actor. Apollo 13 and Mystic River come to mind when thinking of him--not his short stint on the soap opera Guiding Light. However, he will make his TV series debut in the upcoming thriller drama The Following and explained to ET why he decided to head to TV after decades of focusing on film.
While he has made guest appearances on television, held a short-lived role on a soap opera in the '80s, and also produced an award-worthy performance in the TV film Taking Chance, Bacon has never been a regular on a TV series, which made his selection of The Following an important choice.
RELATED: Jarett Wieselman Ventures Inside 2013's Best New TV Show
Having read many TV scripts over the course of his career, he said that this series caught his attention because of its potential to become a hit show with its enticing subject matter.
"When I first read the script, I thought to myself, 'If we do it right, it's going to be kind of like a water-cooler sort of show where people will be saying, 'I can't believe what happened last night on 'The Following,'''" Bacon said. "So far--we're into Episode 7--I feel like we've been pretty successful with that."
Bacon doesn't merely think that others will be enthralled with the series, as he himself has been captivated by the plotline of the show while filming the first season, and anxiously awaits the next script.
VIDEO: Kevin Bacon: 'Footloose' Rewind
"I think the scripts are really exciting and really scary and when I get them...I can't wait to see where [the plot] is going to go," he said. "...I'm thrilled. I think it's going to be one of the fun things about watching this show--to see what happens week after week."
The 54-year-old actor plays a former FBI agent named "Ryan Hardy," who comes out of retirement to help track down a heinous serial killer portrayed by James Purefoy. His wife, Kyra Sedgwick recently ended her longtime law-enforcement role on The Closer, but Bacon assures the timing of his series debut to be irrelevant of his wife's departure from her longtime series.
"It kind of felt like the passing of the baton, but it really wasn't that," he said. "I actually started to explore the idea of doing TV probably three or four years ago, but there just wasn't anything that...I felt was a really good match with me, and it just happened that timing-wise this one came along and hers ended and we just switched roles."

Drug Replacement and Maintenance Therapy
Methadone is the most widely-used maintenance treatment. Used properly, methadone reduces drug use and related crime, death, and disease among heroin users. But methadone has been handicapped by restrictive government regulations, by misinformation - among treatment providers and drug users alike - and by prejudice against methadone treatment.
Methadone is the most tightly restricted drug in the U.S. Doctors in general medical practice can't prescribe methadone, and regular pharmacies don't distribute it. Buprenorphine is a newer medication that has also been shown to be effective and it can be prescribed by physicians who have gone through special training.
The Drug Policy Alliance advocates for making both methadone and buprenorphine more accessible, through changing attitudes, laws, regulations, and health insurance policies. Funding must be increased for access to methadone and buprenorphine through the public health system for those who cannot afford it otherwise.
For drug users who have not found success with methadone, the most dramatic developments in drug substitution therapies have been in the field of Heroin-Assisted Treatment (HAT). HAT programs, as part of comprehensive treatment strategies, provide substantial benefits to long-term heroin users who have not been responsive to other treatment.
Studies have shown that those enrolled in HAT demonstrate a reduction in drug use and an improvement in overall physical and mental health. Additionally, several studies have found that individuals who participated in these programs significantly reduced their involvement in criminal activities, generating large cost savings. Heroin maintenance may be a feasible, effective and cost-effective strategy for reducing drug use and drug-related harm among long-term heroin users for whom other treatment programs have failed.

Although some new species are found in the great outdoors and immediately identified, many specimens hang out in museum collections for years before scientists get around to classifying them. Here's a list of cool new species discovered in drawers and on shelves in museums.

How do you miss an 80-foot (24-meter)-long dinosaur? You stick it in a museum storage room. In 2007, scientists reported the discovery of Barosaurus, a long-necked dino that had been lurking in the Royal Ontario Museum in Canada. Individual bones scattered throughout the museum's collection were discovered to belong to a single specimen.

Now this is a big bug. An extinct hummingbird-size ant hid away in fossil form in the Denver Museum of Nature and Science until 2011, when researchers reported that the huge insect was a newly discovered species and dubbed it Titanomyrma lubei.

Paleontologist Wann Langston Jr. uncovered some intriguing bone bits on a field expedition in Alberta, Canada, in 1958. But he was too busy to look at them, so they got shelved at the Canadian Museum of Nature in Ottawa and forgotten.

Until 2003, that is. Royal Ontario Museum paleontologist David Evans and colleagues learned of the fragments and started investigating. They realized immediately that they had a new species, a shield-necked dinosaur called Xenoceratops foremostensis.

A strange flatfish ancestor that may help explain how these weird creatures evolved turned up not in the ocean, but in a drawer of unidentified fossils at the Natural History Museum of Vienna, Austria, researchers reported in June 2012. The 50-million-year-old fish, Heteronectes, has an eye that has partially migrated across its head, but has not quite reached the point of having both eyes on one side like a modern flounder.

Dubbed "Shieldcroc" for its ornamental headgear, Aegisuchus witmeri is the oldest modern crocodile ancestor found in Africa. Originally collected in Morocco, the specimen that identified this giant crocodile hung out at the Royal Ontario Museum for a few years before scientists turned their attention to it.

Sometimes having a lot of unknown species on hand is useful. In October 2012, researchers examined 1,549 unknown parasitic wasps originally collected in Guatemala, Honduras, Ecuador and Nicaragua, and identified a massive amount of diversity — not to mention 177 distinct species. Previously, only 14 species of these parasite wasps were known in those regions. Scientists are now working on identifying all the individual species in this wasp jackpot.

to friends of mine, I've decided (again) to do a Whole 30 challenge. For those of you who don't know what that is, it's 30 days of whole foods (sounds pretty simple, right?), and NOTHING processed.
Dairy (I don't know how I feel about this one)
Sugar or any sort of sweetener
That leaves PLENTY of food to eat, believe me, I won't be hungry. I can have bacon! And eggs! And fruit! I'm excited. And veggies. I'm not AS excited for that, but I'll get there.
I know that I'd talked about doing this before, but it was hard for me to commit to it alone; and while DJ was supportive of ME he wasn't interested in doing it with me. I just didn't have the willpower to turn down yummy sounding junk food when it was being eaten right in front of me. This time, however, DJ is ready to commit to 30 days with me. Little does he know that it means no pasta. (I'll slip him and the 6 year old zucchini pasta covered in homemade meat sauce instead!)
This morning, I had breakfast for the first time in many a mornings. It wasn't great-peanut butter toast-but it was a start. And I had lunch this afternoon (cottage cheese and home made chicken salad). Starting tonight at dinner we're going W30. I'm just not telling the rest of the family that's what it is.
We'll be having:
Baked Mustard Lime chicken
Mashed Cauliflower
Okay, DJ knows what we're having for dinner. He's okay with it. Part of that might be because I told him that we were having mashed potatoes; but I'll go with it for a bit before I drop that bomb on him.
Now, I learned something today picking up the stuff to do the chicken (my chicken was still frozen and we eat kind of early on Thursdays)...it really IS cheaper to shop the edges of the store. I know that everyone SAYS it, but it really is!
I picked up:
3 chicken breasts
A bunch of cilantro
A bag of dried fruit
A large bottle of dijon mustard
A bottle of olive oil
1 bottle of lime juice
2 bags of frozen veggies
for 20.00
That's enough food to feed us dinner tonight, and a lunch tomorrow and a dinner tomorrow. The olive oil, mustard, and lime juice are all pantry/fridge items after I make dinner tonight too.

Athens, GA - Georgia freshman quarterback Aaron Murray has been named the Southeastern Conference Freshman Player of the Week, according to a league announcement on Monday.
Murray, a 6-1 native of Tampa, Fla., led the Bulldogs to a 41-14 rout of Tennessee in Sanford Stadium over the weekend. Murray went 17-of-25 for 266 yards and a pair of touchdowns with no interceptions. He also accounted for a pair of rushing scores, including a career-long 35-yard scamper through the Volunteer defense.
Murray connected with seven different receivers as Georgia accumulated 402 total yards on offense. While posting a career-best passing efficiency of 183.8 against Tennessee, Murray directed Georgia to scores on seven of 11 drives and helped the Bulldogs go 6-for-6 in Red Zone chances.
This is Georgia's first SEC weekly football award of the 2010 season.
The Bulldogs (2-4, 1-3 SEC) host Vanderbilt (2-3, 1-1) for Homecoming on Oct. 16 at 12:21 p.m. Georgia's game will be televised for the second consecutive week on the SEC Network.

text: PreS-K--Gerald the Elephant recounts to Piggie the crazy story of how he broke his trunk. When he was playing with Hippo, he had the idea to lift him with his trunk. As Gerald tells Piggie, "a hippo on your trunk is heavy." But there is more to it. Rhino shows up and he wants a turn, so Gerald lifts them both onto his trunk, and so on, until he has lifted Hippo, Rhino, and Hippo's big sister and her piano on his trunk. As readers expect, there is more to the story of Gerald's bandaged trunk than first imagined. Willems's now classic and predictable formula, complete with an uncluttered background, large-type word balloons, and expressive characters, is as effective as ever. The style may now be familiar, but the "Elephant & Piggie" stories remain fresh, amusing, and relevant to readers, who will sit on the edge of their seats as they eagerly anticipate the surprising turn of events.

BOSTON (AP) -- The 50th Super Bowl will be held in the San Francisco Bay Area.
NFL owners have voted Tuesday for the 49ers' new stadium as host of the 2016 game. That facility in Santa Clara, Calif., is due to open for the 2014 season.
San Francisco beat out South Florida, which was stymied in its bid to stage an 11th Super Bowl when the Florida Legislature did not support financing to renovate Sun Life Stadium.
The 2017 Super Bowl will be held in Houston, which also beat out Miami for that game.
The only previous Super Bowl played in northern California was at Stanford Stadium in 1985.
Houston hosted the 2004 NFL championship game.
Earlier Tuesday, owners approved a $200 million loan for stadium construction in Atlanta.
