So you've posted that stupid green text here 20 times and now you're an expert on iodine deficiency. You know which supplemental iodine sources cut it and which don't. You know fluoride and boron compete for uptake. You know all the ways not getting enough iodine is fucking us up.

Ok.

How do you know if your iodine supplementation has actually succeeded in raising your levels to the ideal range? Does it go beyond just "I feel better"? Is anyone actually getting lab work done? And, if so, what labs?

ㅤ I just have to know if I'm getting enough iodine.

The image said 2 drops per day with salt. I skip the salt because fuck that and do 4 drops. I also don't think about cocks because I'm not a faggot like OP

That's way too much iodine. A drop of 2% iodine is about 2,500 micrograms of iodine and potassium iodide. Two drops is 5,000 micrograms. Four is 10,000 micrograms. 150 micrograms is the recommended daily intake. You can go higher than this, but not taking 10,000 mcg daily. That's more than 4x's what japs get in their diet. You are overdoing it.

Nips intake ~10x 2 drops worth of Iodine ...

4chan. Nice research moron.

Japs injest 1,000-3,000 micrograms daily but they've evolved to handle it. The majority comes from seaweed seasoning, with some from seafood.

That's 1 drop of 2% iodine daily (2,500 mcg), assuming you are a jap and it's your ONLY source of dietary iodine, not 20 drops. Your number is literally 20 times too high for the japanese.

Fail gradeschool math? Can't read? Are you twenty people living in Japan?

No?

Then you don't need that much fucking iodine.

Where is the real anticlutch?

A few years ago I took Lugol's 10% daily at a high number of drops. It's totally safe.

I remember looking up what overdosing on iodine was and the nr. of drops was ... a couple hundred of drops or more.

You're very safe to take 1-3 drops a day long term. I used to add one drop to 6 liters of drinking water for my family. If it didn't change the taste so much, I'd add 10 drops (daily drinking water)
