Sea kelp
What's your opinion on fortified salt and potassium iodide supplements?Yeah, I don't worry about isolated nutrients but if I was consciously trying to get iodine, I'd opt for whole food sources like cranberries, strawberries, prunes and California carrots specifically since Reams' tests show Cali carrots are higher in iodine. Cranberries in particular are quite high in the nutrient and I definitely prefer cranberry sauce to sea vegetables. I have a very refined palate. Only the jellied cranberry sauce that comes in a can will do. :p

I just take some now‐and‐again, nonchalantly. Perhaps I will take some later today.. . .@Travis
- What's your criteria for selecting kelp supplements?
- Do you believe seaweeds' contaminants are antagonized by the desirable stuff in them?
- Are you aware if the body rejects iodine excess to some degree once it has enough of it?
- How does it work to go by feel when it comes to using a tablet?
I always knew kelp as kombu. Never realized that they're used interchain- interchama- used in place of the other refering to the same plant.
Vitale, Mario, et al. "Iodide excess induces apoptosis in thyroid cells through a p53-independent mechanism involving oxidative stress."
The small amounts of mercury in the kelp will probably end‐up on glutathione, excreted, leached through the ground, end‐up in the ocean, consumed by a fish, yet another bigger fish, caught by a fisherman, stuffed in a can, and then sold to Costco.
I would imagine that the thiocyanate ion is then displaced, filtered by the kidneys, and then becoming something for the fish—or divers other aquatic species—to consider (I hope they have Sci‐Hub so they too can learn how to deal with it).
