Re: What do you think?

 Why have I not yet seen you post anything related to hypER-T? Perhaps I've simply missed something here or there.

Thoughts on hyperthyroidism and iodine supplementing, source of supplementation aside.

I have discussed it a few times.  Not sure if all of them were one these boards.  Mainly discussing not overdoing the iodine, using herbs to suppress thyroid function such as bugleweed, Melissa (lemon balm) and prunella, and focusing on the adrenals for autoimmune hyperthyroidism (Grave's disease).

Excessive iodine intake can put the thyroid in to overdrive.  Unfortunately it is very difficult to tell if you are getting to much iodine unless you really over do it.  This can cause a suppression of thyroid hormone, mouth ulcers, diarrhea, vomiting, hyperactivity, swollen salivary glands, rough skin, mental problems, emotional instability,  and a metallic taste in the mouth.  This is why I had a fit earlier when a poster was recommending 50mg daily since the body uses iodine in micrograms:
