Guest guest Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 Baleine makes an iodized sea salt. I got it at Wholefoods. They also make non-iodized versions, so be sure to check the label carefully. I think this one is legal. > My son has been diagnosed w/hypothyroidism.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 I buy Hain iodized sea salt. It says it has dextrose in it, according to the label..... but Elaine has said we should not worry about the minute amount of dextrose in salt. She is more concerned about the need for iodine.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 The generic wal-mart brand of table salt (Great Value I think is what it's called) is iodized and has no dextrose, which is what makes the salt illegal. I'll post ingredients if you want - but since you use sea salt, you might not be interested, but if you are, let me know. Robbie ----- My son has been diagnosed w/hypothyroidism.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 Dextrose in salt is not illegal....... Elaine has said not to worry about it. If you can avoid it, then fine...... but most all iodized salt has it and she has said it's fine to go ahead and use.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 I've seen posts where people are trying to avoid it if possible - this is why I mentioned it. I was actually quite surprised I easily found any without it. I should not have phrased my post the way I did - saying 'that is why the salt is illegal' - I didn't really mean it was illegal, but that if you want to avoid the dextrose anyway, by choice, then this brand doesn't have it. Sorry - that could have been really misleading - thank you for clarifying it.
