A member asked:
Anyone know what is a healthy amount of iodine a 48 year old woman suppose to have in her daily diet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Iodine per day: Iodine is underrated as a nutrient. I recommend several miligrams (mg.) per day. That's several thousand micrograms (mcg). A good serving of seaweed can contain about 4mg or 4, 000 mcg. I would not advise more than 5mg per day.
