Nero,
I am happy you fixed your thyroid.
"thyroid insufficiency, and I think it was exacerbated by the Iodine I took from about 2002-2011."
While on the subject of thyroid, Selenium is just as vital to the thyroid as iodine. One without the other can cause thyroid problems. http://www.greenwillowtree.com/Page.bok?file=selenium.iodine.html
The rest of the co-requisites are required to get Iodine into the cells & toxins out of the cells.
