Re: Spot test needed for anything or just loading test?

You do not need the spot test. It is only a snapshot in time of what you have had in your diet. You will want to do the 24 hour loading test WITH BROMIDE levels. That is critical because you may get a higher saturation and it could be false because you are toxic in bromide.

Spot test needed for anything or just loading test?

Hello,I'm ordering an Iodine Loading test and see that Hakala labs offers a "spot test" and Loading and Spot test combo. Is there any reason to get the combo do you think or will the loading test be sufficient for someone who does want to pay the money to do a test?I checked the files and links and didn't see any info on this, but then I could have missed it.Thanks,

That is very clear and I will order the loading test and the bromide. Thanks so

much.
