The best way to get iodine is to rub a spot of iodine on an inconspicuous place on your body.
Your body will take exactly what it needs and leave the rest.
Do it every day.

Iodized Salt loses Iodine when stored, and Sea Salt or other non-iodized specialty salts have become popular.

When was the last time you heard of a person with a goiter? I haven't seen one in probably 50 years.

From here on out Lisa will be dunking her eldest in iodine every morning.

Worst news is you haven't even gotten to the teen years yet.

I seem to remember that if the coloration disappears, within X amount of time, that means you needed the iodine. If it doesn't that means you didn't. I know I tried it as my sister's recommendation and the iodine spot didn't change color. Oh, and it's not just any iodine. It's iodine made specifically for that type of application. I bought mine on Amazon.

A doctor told me about this a number of years ago.
He said to use regular drug store iodine. Sometimes the spot stays there-sometimes it partially disappears-and sometimes it totally disappears.
I'll search the internet. I'm sure you're right and there's a special iodine that works better.
