What Should Be Your Takeaway About Iodine?
The major thought about iodine is that it is all about having enough, not too much and not too little, to help support the health of your thyroid (and your overall health, too).
We also want to avoid having radical fluctuations of iodine. We see that even changes within what should be a safe range, these can still unmask or unleash thyroid disease in our bodies.
Earlier, I discussed how we have had this large uptick since we began fortifying water with iodine, but the same thing has been evidenced in other nations.
Austria, for example,has seen a large uptick in autoimmune thyroid disease between 1979 and 20095. This kind of increase in hypothyroidism is definitely of concern to us.
