gaining weight after starting iodoral

[Guest guest]

I have a friend who just began using iodoral 12.5 mg tablets, 1 tablet a day.

She does has not changed anything else recently in her habits except adding

coconut oil to her salads, about a spoonful a day. She remains very active and

teaches aerobics. She feels good and has lots of energy, but since she started

taking the iodine over the last 2 months, she has gained weight.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Thank you for any input you have for me.
