[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 107309, member: 18023"] I would have to read the book. This is also interesting study on iodide supplementation. Too much iodine causes subclinical hypothyroidism. [B]Conclusions:[/B] This study showed that subclinical hypothyroidism appeared in the participants who took the 400-μg I supplement, which provided a total iodine intake of ~800 μg/d. Thus, we caution against a total daily iodine intake that exceeds 800 μg/d in China and recommend further research to determine a safe daily upper limit. [url]https://academic.oup.com/ajcn/article/95/2/367/4576756[/url] I have no idea who is right or wrong about this, 12.5 mg seems very high compared to what the RDA of 150 micrograms (mcg) is, and one should note that female hormone estrogen inhibits the absorption of iodine. So women need more iodine than men. I would be comfortable with 400 ug per day, it would be difficult to convince me that the Brownstein recommendation of 12.5 mg won't have negative health consequences. Do you or anyone you know take 12.5 mg of Iodide, and if so, do you also have hypothyroidism?. [/QUOTE]
