Hey all,
Just wondering if taking a Kelp supplement was still ok even if my thyroid results came back normal. Is it still ok to take it or would it be best not to, so that I avoid any potential negative effects? I was told by a herbalist not to. I'm in weight loss/ exercise mode at the moment and I am sure some iodine wouldn't hurt!
Thanks

REALLY?! Thanks for that! I never knew this! I thought it was one of the best sources of iodine etc! I might as well steer clear of it altogether then.
Thanks again..

This is a reply to # 1,059,956I bought 4 bottles of kelp and ended up pouring them all down the drain. Lot's of info out there. NOW Foods, the brand I had, even pulled their kelp off the shelves. It normally is a great source of Iodine but it has become very polluted. Sad.
