    Attention Breadmakers: Bromide vs. Iodide in processed flour

    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...

    Attention Breadmakers: Bromide vs. Iodide in processed flour

    as far as other foods.....most are severely deficient, It depends on the soil; for both animal and plant foods. Anything from the sea will have much higher concentrations.

    Attention Breadmakers: Bromide vs. Iodide in processed flour

    Yes, but most people do not eat the recommended 2-3 servings per week to achieve enough iodine intake from seafood alone. There is also the issue with sublimation, which is a solid going directly to vapor, and something iodine can do very readily. So some of the iodine added to fortify salt is...

    Attention Breadmakers: Bromide vs. Iodide in processed flour

    I think it is the combination of lower iodine intake coupled with increased Bromine intake.....both being bad....especially for those on a low salt intake diet where they are lowering their iodine intake even further by reducing salt intake (iodized salt). It is even worse if someone is...

    Using pure Sodium Nitrate for DIY #2 curing salt

    Unless you are making a product that will be dry cured longer than 30 days, you don't need cure #2 (sodium nitrate). I agree with SE, more info needed.

    Attention Breadmakers: Bromide vs. Iodide in processed flour

    Thank you for posting. I had no idea Bromine was a trace element essential to life in the human body! You are right though-dosage is the key! A lot of people are low in iodine. The RDA was set 100 years ago; and it was the minimum amount needed to prevent goiter is farm animals. that dosage was...

    Attention Breadmakers: Bromide vs. Iodide in processed flour

    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...
