No. Dark green, leafy vegetables help all your organs function better.
There is no evidence that cruciferous vegetables slow down or "kill the thyroid." Unfortunately, there are many health bloggers who don't fact-check and have cut and re-pasted incorrect statements claiming that "all leafy greens are bad for your thyroid," when that's not the case.
In fact, cruciferous vegetables are super nutritionally dense foods so they are good for women with thyroid issues who are often depleted in micronutrients.
Why Leafy Greens Are Great for Your ThyroidWhile it's possible that large amounts of raw cruciferous foods can somewhat inhibit the thyroid gland's ability to take up iodine to produce the T4 hormone, there's a bigger picture. If you have a condition such as Hashimoto's, the primary focus should be restoring your digestive tract and detoxifying the body - as they are usually the original triggers for thyroid conditions. Avoiding cruciferous vegetables completely does not help improve those health issues.
Leafy greens are richer in vitamins and minerals than any other of their distant veggie cousins. As most Americans are undernourished, cutting out these foods then makes us rely further on supplements - which is not the way we should be living and healing.
Since 90% of thyroid problems occur for autoimmune reasons, I believe it's more important to restore the health of your immune system through your gut, than obsess about cutting out all crucifers.

If you have hyperthyroidism which is bad for you iron or iodine?
If you have hyperthyroidism, neither iron nor iodine is bad for you. Excessive consumption of either can be dangerous however, and since iodine is fuel the thyroid uses to produce thyroid hormone, anti-thyroid drugs (ATD's) are used to help the body lower its ability to use iodine in the thyroid. Iodine is necessary for life however, as is iron. For appropriate diagnosis and treatment of thyroid dysfunction, please seek the help of a board certified endocrinologist who specializes in thyroid problems.

Is dark pee good or bad?
Sometimes dark urine indicates dehydration: it's concentrated, and therefore a darker shade, because there's relatively little water in the body. Dark urine can also be normal, from eating a vitamin rich diet or indicate other problems such as liver disease or bleeding. If you are having any doubts a simple urinalysis can tell you what is going on.

Why is wheat bad for thyroid problems?
Wheat isn't necessary a bad thing to incorporate into your diet if you have a thyroid condition. However, some thyroid patients have noticed that reducing the amount of gluten they eat, or eliminating it altogether from their diet, has improved some of the symptoms they experience as a result of their thyroid condition. This doesn't mean that eating gluten-free will improve your thyroid function, it just means it might help reduce the severity of symptoms like constipation, weight gain, fluid retention to name a few.
