Yeah, after I posted that, I did some searching and found this:http://www.survivediabetes.com/Essay/Iodine.htm
I liked the quotes from Guy Abraham.
**Entertainingly, a thyroid researcher, Dr Guy Abraham, has offered $10,000 to the first physician who can show him a case of the Wolff-Chaikoff effect in a human patient:
We have given up to 50 mg iodine/iodide per day for up to one year to normal subjects without any ill effect. Serum T4 levels did decrease but remained within the normal range. Serum TSH decreased in those with elevated levels, but not in subjects with TSH below 2.5 mIV/L.
We are offering $10,000 to any physician or other health care professional who can demonstrate the Wolff Chaikoff Effect in human subjects with normal thyroid function. (The Wolff-Chaikoff effect of increasing Iodide intake on the thyroid - Letters to the Editor, Townsend Letter for Doctors and Patients, 12/2003; Dr Guy Abraham)**
"The Wolff Chaikoff Effect, combined with medical stupidity may have caused more human misery and death than both world wars combined by preventing meaningful clinical investigations of optimal levels of Iodine on physical and mental health. Today, the optimal requirement of Iodine for whole body sufficiency is still unknown."
Guess I'll stop paying attention to these "scientific" papers.
