I have visited a number of the iodine sites Craig, which is why I started on Lugols. I haven't found any adverse effects and the other day, it helped clear a lymph related back pain. I just wondered why Mercola, who I trust, should have said this. Maybe I will get onto his site somehow

What Mercola acutally wrote was this: Getting Your Iodine Levels Up If you are iodine deficient, I recommend adding sea vegetables to your diet. The best source of organically bound iodine that I know of is non-commercially harvested seaweeds. The dose is about 5 grams a day or about one ounce

Hi Dan, I see now that it was in the quote from Mercola...I didn't see that:) My mistake. I find Mercola's inconsistency to be disturbing and his statement very misleading. The body requires both iodine and potassium iodide which is why Lugol's or Iodoral are great supplements. Having said
