Few realize that the body's organs other than thyroid also need iodine.

Ever hear of people with gallbladder problems ?

Could it be that their Iodine deficiency is the root cause of the problem ?

"How is an oral cholecystogram (OCG) done?

The patient takes iodine-containing tablets by mouth for one night or two nights in a row. The Iodine is absorbed from the intestine into the bloodstream, removed from the blood by the liver and excreted by the liver into the bile. The iodine, together with the bile, is highly concentrated in the gallbladder. Iodine is used in an OCG because it is dense and radioopague (stops x-rays). It outlines the Gallstones that are radiolucent (x-rays pass through them) and that are usually invisible on x-ray.

The bile ducts themselves cannot be seen on the x-ray in an OCG because the iodine is not concentrated in the ducts. Therefore, any Gallstones lodged in the ducts will go undetected on OCG. Failure to visualize the gallbladder on an OCG may occur for one of two reasons. First, a gallstone may have obstructed the cystic duct and prevented the iodine-containing bile from entering the gallbladder. Second, inflammation of the gallbladder -- usually due to Gallstones -- may have interfered with the gallbladder's ability to concentrate bile and iodine. Whichever the cause, failure to visualize the gallbladder on an OCG strongly suggests a diseased gallbladder."


author's comments:

and that its (iodine) is highly concentreated in the gall bladder, would help keep the gall bladder sterile

no biofilm forming in the gall ballder, probably similar for the kidneys and kidney tubules as well

iodine would help keep yeast out of the bile duct

since the bile goes into the intestine it would help sterilise the intestine to
