Do you want to have another, perhaps even more 'radical', perspective on this?
Let's assume that having Iodide in your body can be as common and as safe as chlorIDE. Then, what is the *real* limit you can take? Well, if we take potassium chloride, or sodium chloride, the limiting factor as to how much you can take is the metal, not the halide. e.g. potassium overdose comes long before chloride overdose. So, what is a hypothetical limit for potassium? Let's say 5 grams. In terms of KCl salt, that would be 4.5 grams of chloride. However, since iodine's atomic weight is so much more, the equivalent Iodide in KI would be 16.3 grams of iodide.
By my guess, if you got all your sodium,potassium, and magnesium in Iodide form, you could take about 30g a day.
Atomic weights:
Na 23
K 39
Cl 35
I 127
