Re: Iodine deficiency ! - falling intakes - goitregens - competition bromine and fluo

A highly thought provoking video lecture by Jorge Flechas - he is clearly impassioned to communicate his experience using iodine with patients - it is sad there is not more research into the issues raised . . . as regularly observed there is great debate about what constitutes the optimal intake band of iodine either for repairing deficiency or ongoing maintenance. There is significant evidence that the Japanese have a much higher intake than those in the west; from 1mg a day up depending which source is examined - how much higher is debated - clearly there must be papers that support the higher intake figures in pregnancy but as yet I have not managed to find them - I will try harder
