Goitrogens

GOITROGENS: What are they? It is a substance found in certain foods that may interfere with the iodine absorption by the thyroid gland. Iguanas can and do suffer thyroid problems. Again, its something we can help prevent in most cases by feeding a large variety of proper foods to our green friends.
