Posting this because I've been fussing at my partner for like what feels like years now to eat some iodized salt and they haven't done so and keep complaining about "maybe I have seasonal depression" or this or that and like okay unless I'm an ignorant shit ass moron there are few dietary sources of iodine outside of SEAFOOD, DAIRY, EGGS or SEAWEED which is basically seafood but for vegans. Anyway, unless you're eating that DAILY because it's water soluble i'm pretty sure, you should be supplementing your diet with probably at least HALF A TEASPOON of iodine EVERY DAY. depending on your weight and whatnot but also like just vibe it out
eat some iodized salt, it was a medical miracle of the 19th or whatever (I'm not an encyclopedia and I'm drunk) century
it imparts a metallic taste to food but like you can just mix it up into some water and swig it, treat it like a vitamin, idk dawg
your thyroid will be like 
and you might feel more energetic and you'll definitely be at less risk of developing goiter! don't make me fuss at you! eat your salt!
p.s. good news it's one of the cheapest things you can buy (
)
Shout out to iodized salt, it’s good stuff
Is there morton lite/potassium chloride salt that's still iodized? seems like that'd be ideal for people worried about too much salt.
Edit: My internet's all funky and I responded to the wrong person. But fuck it. I just post 'em all. Let Mod sort 'em out.
Yeah, there's a bunch of "salt substitute" stuff that's either 100% or 50% potassium chloride with iodine or iodized salt mixed with it. Nu-Salt, Half Salt, Morton Lite, "salt free" iodized salt, etc.
it really is, I wish it didn't affect the taste of food though because it makes me not want to use it
wait... there are people who don't like the taste?
I mean it's definitely a strong taste and I can see people who are purists not wanting the influence but personally I don't think it's a BAD taste, just definitely noticeable and not necessarily desirable
huh, I've literally been using iodized salt my whole life so while I believe you I genuinely don't know what difference you're referring to
Tastes like metal
Same here, to me that's just what salt tastes like.
if you dissolve iodized and non-iodized salt in two glasses of water you can smell the difference. the iodized one is a bit bleachy/metallic
