I agree that their research quoted seems to be rather biased. But here are some

more articles that could be sighted. You will see that most of what is here is

Abraham Flechas and Brownstein because I think they are the only ones actively

researching and publishing results.

Iodine Research

Effect of daily ingestion of a tablet containing 5mg Iodine and 7.5mg Iodide as

the potassium salt, for a period of 3 months, on the results of thyroid function

tests and thyroid volume by ultrasonometry in ten euthyroid Caucasian Women.

The RDA is no where near what we need today. Our receptors are blocked due to

the toxic halogens we are taking in from air, water and food - Bromide,

Choloride and Fluoride. The displace Iodine.
