Protocol Overview
Getting enough iodine from food and, when needed, a supplement, with thyroid labs. Some practitioners use high (milligram) doses of iodine; those carry real thyroid risk and are only used with a clinician.
Used For
Safety Profile
The adult RDA is 150 mcg a day and the upper limit is 1,100 mcg. Iodine-protocol practitioners use far higher doses, citing Japanese seaweed intake; estimates of that intake vary widely and are debated. Claims that high-dose iodine clears bromide and fluoride are not well tested. High doses help some people and harm the thyroid in others, which is why labs and a clinician are needed.

The Evidence Score (0 to 100) rates the strength of evidence from studies in people for the uses listed: higher means stronger, more consistent research. It does not measure safety. It is not medical advice.
For education, not medical advice. Talk with a licensed clinician before you start, and never stop or change a prescribed medication without your prescriber.
