I take 950-1000 micrograms per day, in the morning....do not take it at night or it will keep you awake. The upper range would be around 1500 micrograms from everything I have read so far. This is what I take, though there are many other kelp products on the market...

Just recently learned about this... Iodide (or is it Iodate?) was used as a conditioner in commercial flour up until around 1980. Then a switch to Bromide was made. My question is why was this done? Bromide is toxic to the human body and is banned in food stuffs in a lot of countries. Bromine...
