Can iodine shrink thyroid nodules?

[Guest guest]

Hello, I'm new to the group. I was wondering whether anyone could explain the

role of iodine for treating thyroid nodules, please?

I've just been diagnosed with a multinodular goitre and mild hyperT symptoms.

I've read Brownstein's book on Overcoming Thyroid Disorders, but he says nothing

about the treatment of thyroid nodules. The advice on the internet is

contradictory. Some people say that nodules are the result of iodine deficiency,

while other people say if you increase your iodine intake this stimulates the

production of more thyroxine which in turn increases hyperT symptoms.

If anyone has any advice or experience or a testimony on how to shrink thyroid

nodules - with a natural cure - I'd appreciate it. I have a bottle of Iodoral

that's been sat in my kitchen for a month which I daren't take in case it

worsens my symptoms. Thanks in advance. :-)
