Guest guest Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Bromide is in Concentrace Minerals also. It occurs naturally. I don't worry about it, not if I'm taking iodine. If iodine is really doing its job.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 ,If you are sure your source of seaweed for iodine is free of heavy metals, should be OK. My goats are not toxic in heavy metals, they get kelp from Iceland. And I drink the milk and eat the meat and we are not toxic in heavy metals. I did supplement several years ago with the same kelp I feed the goats. It was not enough to counteract all the bromides I'm exposed to.One important point to consider is that if you are toxic in halides or so-rounded with a lot of bromides, you might need very big amounts of seaweed to balance things out. Other point that you have to determine is: what are all the symptoms/problems you have or want to correct by supplementing with iodine, then you can established what amount and what kind of iodine is good enough for you.From: coloredoctave <joanlulich@...>iodine Sent: Thu, January 6, 2011 3:04:23 PMSubject: Re: Iodine Food Sources Bromide is in Concentrace Minerals also.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 I found an interesting source of iodine/iodine that contains, selenium, and the co-factor all in one. Does anyone know about this product and care to comment? http://www.1-thyroid.com/index.htm From: Magallanes <pataviva@...>iodine Sent: Fri, January 7, 2011 12:42:48 PMSubject: Re: Re: Iodine Food Sources , If you are sure your source of seaweed for iodine is free of heavy metals, should be OK.
