A member asked:
Can you take too much iodine in liquid form a day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why take it?: Iodine deficiency is very rare in the us. The most common cause for thyroid dysfunction in the us is autoimmune related. Autoimmune thyroid disease is made worse by taking iodine, so there is likely no benefit that you are likely to receive by taking an iodine supplement.
