I have stated a number of times in the past that I have no problem with iodine supplementation as long as it is not over done, and I really prefer natural sources.  I don't recommend Lugol's for this reason, but I do recommend seaweeds such as dulse and bladderwrack or black walnut hull, which is also a good source.

In addition I like to emphasize to people that iodine IS NOT the cure all for hypothyroidism.  Iodine deficiency is just one of many causes of hypothyroidism.  This is why I tell people that if you go to an herbalist for hypothyroidism and they just tell you to take kelp then run away quick!!!  If they say this then they obviously do not have a clue what they are talking about.  Again iodine will work for some, but not all causes, of hypothyroidism.

As for the reference in the article the only way to find out what that is all about is to look at the abstract or study.  There would likely be an explanation of the finding there.
