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?

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

I live in Japan. Japanese normal diet is rice, fish, sea weed (nori), green tea, bread, and normally some western food thrown in there now. I'm curious where the extra iodine comes from..... seriously. My guess is the seafood (especially sea weed).

No way it's as high as what's been said though.

Seafood and seaweed are high in iodine. So are Japanese clams. You must spread them then eat the raw clam for 3 minutes. After your best girl sings you can stop and you get your daily iodine intake. Beware, to much iodine will knock you out then you will appear in another world as a half orc baby.

How did you know what I had for dinner?

Nori, wakame and kombu contain a metric fuckton of iodine.
