Well that is a sales pitch for Iodoral, so I wouldn't expect it to give the other side.

Indeed, several epidemics of iodine-induced thyroid dysfunction have been described that follow iodine supplementation programs, as reviewed in Thyroid 1998 Jan;8(1):83-100 Iodine-induced hyperthyroidism: occurrence and epidemiology and increases in the rates of hypothyroidism have been described in iodine-supplemented
populations. See Large Differences in Incidences of Overt Hyper- and
Hypothyroidism Associated with a Small Difference in Iodine Intake: A Prospective Comparative Register-Based Population Survey. J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2002 Oct 1;87(10):4462-4469.
>> Furthermore, in the absence of supplementation, excess iodine intake in different populations has also been associated with an increased incidence of goiter and thyroid dysfunction. See Endemic goiter associated with high iodine intake Am J Public Health 2000 Oct;90(10):1633-5.


Plus several other links and references also found by a google search for iodine excess.

I don't understand that at all since I have read many places that the
thyroid gland is the ONLY tissue in the body that uses or stores iodine.
I don't know how to find out the actual facts here, but what I've read
seems scientifically accurate.
