Just in case you don't know, all cruciferous veggies (cabbage, kale, etc) are thyroid antagonists, so too many unfermented crucifers in your diet will simply make the problem worse. Soy also has a very high phyto-estrogen content, and is a thyroid inhibitor, which could contribute to the problem if you eat soy. Male breast tissue is stimulated by the presense of estrogen, just like female breast tissue is, so it seems like the best thing to do is eliminate the xeno and phyto estrogens from your diet and/or life-style. You might also want to consider taking up weight-lifting, because weight-lifting is one of the best...maybe THE BEST...way to stimulate testosterone production, which is what you need to combat a high-estrogen state, which causes breast enlargement.

For males with breast enlargement:
