Is cress seed eoe compatible-compatible?

Watch for

• Brassica glucosinolates, which are goitrogenic.A pinch of cress seed sprinkled on food is not the exposure that matters. Daily supplement sized spoonfuls taken for months are, and they are the way halim seed is usually recommended. If you have hypothyroidism, a goitre, or you are on thyroid replacement, this is a food to raise with whoever manages your dose rather than one to self prescribe
• Traditionally used as an emmenagogue and to bring on labour, which is exactly why it is avoided in pregnancy.Human safety data is thin, so the sensible reading is that a plant with a folk reputation for stimulating the uterus is not one to start taking daily while pregnant
• Not AIP compliant.Autoimmune protocol elimination removes seeds and, separately, tends to be cautious with concentrated brassica preparations, so halim seed belongs in the reintroduction pile rather than the base diet
• The mucilage is the practical trap.Cress seed absorbs many times its own weight in water and gels fast, so a dry spoonful chased with too little liquid can sit heavy and feel bloating even though the seed is graded clean on FODMAPs and fine for SIBO fermentation. Soak it first
• Its FODMAP grade is unrated rather than measured, so a clean gut profile here is an absence of data as much as a green light
