Peanuts are goitrogenic just like cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, brokkoli and cauliflower, as well as radishes, strawberries and peaches. It can be a problem if you eat those in large amounts especially if you are Iodine deficient.

If you have plenty of Iodine you dont need to worry about that. These veggies and fruits have very beneficial antioxidants and phytonutrients and keeping them out of the diet would not be a good idea.

I love peanutbutter too - I just dont eat to much of it mailny also because its high in omega 6 fatty acids/polyunsaturated fats which should be limited. The best oils are coconut oil, virgin olive oil and some fresh butter.

BTW heating also reduces the goitrogenic effect of foods.
