Frequently Asked Questions

Does Restaurant, Latino, arepa (unleavened cornmeal bread) affect hormones?

Yes — Restaurant, Latino, arepa (unleavened cornmeal bread) is rich in selenium (11% DV), which Required for T4→T3 conversion (deiodinase enzyme). Selenoproteins protect Leydig cells from oxidative damage.. selenium supports T3 (active thyroid) and Testosterone production.

Oxalates (spinach, beet greens, Swiss chard — bind calcium). Goitrogens (raw cruciferous — broccoli, kale, cabbage — can impair thyroid iodine uptake). Cooking cruciferous vegetables deactivates goitrogens. Pair high-oxalate greens with calcium-rich foods (they bind in gut, not kidneys). Avoid green potatoes. Only a concern with very high raw intake + iodine deficiency (for goitrogens) or kidney stone history (for oxalates).
