I’m interested in fighting MPB without drugs so I am taking interest in soy and broccoli. I read that both contain goitrogens that affect iodine and the thyroid. I’ve been drinking like a whole carton of soy (8 servings) and a head of broccoli each day (probably a few servings) and I don’t consume dairy. I just bought a kelp supplement for iodine and it says to take one capsule a day which provides 276 percent of DV of iodine. But because I eat so much soy and broccoli each day, should I be taking more i.e. two, three, or four a day? I’m a big guy so maybe that makes a difference. I’ve also eaten chicken livers before and those contain like 1000 percent DV of vitamin A, so several kelp capsules can’t be too bad right?

I don’t think broccoli or soy will grow hair, but I do know that it produces gas. I know I don’t need to say it again, but indulge me — male pattern baldness is from genetics. You really can’t fight the cards you are dealt from a genetic perspective, as there is no cure for balding. Good luck against the fight!

Also remember anything in excess can also be bad for you, so use your judgment.
