Health, Nutrition, Supplementation, What's Up With - Iodine? https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Iodine-HealthProfessional/ The earth’s soils contain varying amounts of iodine, which in turn affects the iodine content of crops. In some regions of the world, iodine-deficient soils are common, increasing the risk of iodine deficiency among people who consume foods primarily from those areas. Salt iodization programs, which many countries have implemented, have dramatically reduced the prevalence of iodine deficiency worldwide. - People with marginal iodine status who eat foods containing goitrogens - soy, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, and other cruciferous vegetables Consumption of foods that contain goitrogens, substances that interfere with the uptake of iodine in the thyroid, can exacerbate iodine deficiency. Foods high in goitrogens include soy and cassava, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, and other cruciferous vegetables. Deficiencies of iron and/or vitamin A may also be goitrogenic. These issues are of concern primarily for people living in areas prone to iodine deficiency. For most people, including most of the U.S. population, who have adequate iodine intakes and eat a variety of foods, the consumption in reasonable amounts of foods containing goitrogens is not a concern. - Iodine is a trace element that is naturally present in some foods, added to others, and available as a dietary supplement. Iodine is an essential component of the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). Thyroid hormones regulate many important biochemical reactions, including protein synthesis and enzymatic activity, and are critical determinants of metabolic activity. They are also required for proper skeletal and central nervous system development in fetuses and infants. Thyroid function is primarily regulated by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), also known as thyrotropin. It is secreted by the pituitary gland to control thyroid hormone production and secretion, thereby protecting the body from hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. TSH secretion increases thyroidal uptake of iodine and stimulates the synthesis and release of T3 and T4. In the absence of sufficient iodine, TSH levels remain elevated, leading to goiter, an enlargement of the thyroid gland that reflects the body’s attempt to trap more iodine from the circulation and produce thyroid hormones.

First, make sure you use a lugol’s solution of iodine. Once you’ve applied a palm size amount of iodine to your skin, wait to see how long it takes for the iodine to disappear. If the iodine is still there after 24 hours, then you have enough iodine in your body. However, if the iodine is absorbed and you don’t see it on your skin anymore, you need more iodine. What does iodine do? Iodine is an important mineral for our bodies. Iodine is used by the body to make hormones... How do I know if I need to supplement iodine? How do I apply iodine? First, make sure you use a lugol’s solution of iodine. My recommendation for an ideal iodine solution can be found on our Resource Page. A lugol’s solution will absorb well into the skin. Apply the iodine to your thyroid or near your thyroid so that your thyroid can easily utilize it. Use a palm size amount of iodine. Use the size of the palm of the person that you’re applying the iodine to. Then just use the dropper or a roller ball and apply the iodine directly to the skin. Within a minute, the iodine should be dry enough to not stain skin or clothing. Be sure to rotate the spot where you apply your iodine to as iodine can be somewhat drying to your skin. Also make sure you don’t take a shower or bath right after applying your iodine. How do I know if I need to supplement iodine? Once you’ve applied a palm size amount of iodine to your skin, wait to see how long it takes for the iodine to disappear. If the iodine is still there after 24 hours, then you have enough iodine in your body. However, if the iodine is absorbed and you don’t see it on your skin anymore, you need more iodine. This palm size patch test is a great way to know if you need iodine! Is there anyone who should not supplement with iodine? Age-wise really anyone can be supplementing with iodine. There is a lot of information that discourages people with certain thyroid issues from supplementing with iodine. However, the key is in how you supplement iodine if you have these certain issues. If you have certain thyroid issues, be sure you have enough selenium in your diet, especially if you are supplementing the iodine internally. If you are supplementing iodine only by putting it on your skin, there’s very little chance of a negative reaction or an autoimmune reaction. Selenium is important for our brain function so I often recommend it. You can find it as a trace mineral in some salts. It’s also found brain and nervous tissue so if you are issuing meat cuts or consuming stock with brain or nervous tissue that will also provide your body with selenium. For example, consuming a pork chop with a piece of the spinal cord attached or head cheese. Brazil nuts are the other way to get selenium. One way to listen to your body and get an idea for how much selenium you may or may not need is eat Brazil nuts very mindfully. Most people can eat one to two Brazil nuts and get an efficient amount of selenium. If the Brazil nut tastes like the best thing you’ve ever eaten, your body needs more selenium. When they taste like sawdust, you now have enough selenium. The amount you need will depend on your body so listen to your body! Can you have too much iodine? In theory, yes, you can have too much iodine. Some of the issues come if you have too much iodine without enough selenium. Also if you are taking very high doses of iodine internally and are not monitoring it closely, you can have too much iodine in your system. If you are taking iodine internally, you need to make sure to work with someone who is an expert with iodine to monitor your levels. When you’re putting iodine on your skin, it would be very difficult to get too much iodine. Your body will simply stop absorbing the iodine when it has enough. Unless you were making yourself head to toe orange every day, you’re not going to overwhelm your body with iodine. cont... https://www.bewellclinic.net/blog-posts/how-to-apply-iodine-to-your-skin
