What is the best form of iodine supplement? i'm a vegan, trying to cut back on salt, and i don't want to eat seaweed everyday. what is nascent iodine? is that an okay form of iodine? how much should i take?

Since the primary sources of iodine are salt, seaweed, dairy and cod, you will need to take a multivitamin/mineral supplement.There are many whole food based vegan multivitamin supplements that can fill this need.

Daily recommended amount of iodine for adult female is 150 mcg. Iodine is found in various baked foods and soy milk. This requirement can also be easily met by OTC multivitamin mineral supplement tab.
