Its presence in some commonly consumed vegetables society, causes the need for patterns of consumption and good processing in order to make it safe for consumption. Cyanide is a precursor thiocyanate which disrupt the formation of thyroid hormones through two pathways, active transport and interfere with the activity of thyroid peroxidase. This study aimed to change food pattern and way of processing goitrogenic cyanide food stuff through nutritional counseling and demonstration of food processing to reduce cyanide in goitrogenic food stuff.
