Broccoli is loaded with goitrogens, particularly one group called thiocyanates. The consequence of eating these thiocyanates is the potential to develop the very serious condition of hypothyroidism

One guy did an experiment and ate nothing but brocoli for a week. He was fatigued, poisoned and literally felt like dying:
