Iodine levels in iodized salt
I’m doing some research on Jod-Basedow effect, or Iodide induced Thyrotoxicosis (IIT) for my friend (she has hyperthyroidism) and I want to know how much iodine is contained in iodized salt.
I’m concerned that she may ingest too much and worsen her medical situation. I understand that the recommended levels are somewhere around 100 or so mcg. iodine daily, but have no idea how to gauge the levels in the salt. Does anybody know the answer or where i could find out?
