Iodine: The Forgotten Mineral

A comprehensive guide to iodine — the whole-body nutrient your body cannot make and most people are not getting enough of. Written by Alison, PA-C, this guide covers why iodine deficiency has quietly re-emerged in the U.S., how iodine affects far more than just your thyroid (including breast tissue, ovaries, immune cells, brain, and skin), and provides a complete toolkit including food sources, supplement options with evidence-based confidence ratings, testing protocols, a daily checklist, a topical skin-painting protocol, and tailored guidance for pregnant women, those with Hashimoto's, vegans, and other special situations.
