Iodine

Harris SB

"Alas, iodine/iodide supplementation is useful only for one small (now rare) kind of hypothyroidism. All the other kinds it does either nothing for, or else causes it to get worse (since iodine actually suppresses thyroid function at high doses). The last is probably what is happening in Japan with the Hashimoto's disease-- there are a lot of people on the very edge of clinical hypothyroidism as a result of autoimmune thyroid destruction, and high iodine intake pushes them over the top."
