Many people have forgotten that iodine is an essential trace mineral and that iodine deficiency was a huge public health issue all throughout human history until 1924 when iodized salt was introduced. Up until 1924, 20% of the population, more in inland populations, had a disfiguring goiter, often dying prematurely. This is because all the iodine on the planet is in the ocean and inland populations were deprived of food and water that contained iodine. Iodized salt was therefore regarded as one of the great public health success stories of the twentieth century.
But some people showed adverse effects of excessive salt consumption (especially those consuming plenty of grains and sugars) and health authorities have advised cutting back on salt, no mention made of alternative means of obtaining iodine. As people cut back on salt use, many are now iodine deficient with hypothyroidism and other health issues.
If you no longer want to rely on iodized salt, but want to restore iodine confidently, what is the best source to do so? It’s simple, but just be aware of some basic issues and you won’t have to give it a second thought.
the best source of iodine is from InfoWars store. it is deep earth iodine and is called X2

At 650µg/drop, dose is a bit high for people also getting some iodine from other sources, such as RDA from a quality multi-vitamin. Price is OK. The real issue might be the form of the iodine, claimed to be “nascent iodine” and “Contains NO inefficient iodides.” That’s all unhelpfully vague, perhaps even disqualifying.
Whether the ‘nascent’ form is really what its promoters purport, and the claimed benefits are provided, are both disputed. In any event, it would appear to not be the varied iodine forms that Dr. Davis encourages in the video.
Ideally, we’d all be getting our iodine by eating lots of seafood. Thanks to modern ocean contaminants, that’s now inadvisable, so the next best thing appears to be kelp.

I just take Liquid Iodine Forte, 150mcg, 3 drops every morning. It shrunk and eliminated thyroid nodules for me.

Nice outcome, and reinforces how important iodine is to health.
Looking at that product, however, I see that it contains a preservative (sodium benzoate). That’s not in there to preserve you☺. There are two generally known health concerns with it, not including any microbiome effects (likely not yet studied at all). By comparison, the iodine drop product presently linked from the Marketplace feature here is just iodine and purified water.
