How Many Iodine Supplements Do I Need?
The first step is to determine your current iodine levels through a blood, serum or urine test. Once your iodine levels are determined, your healthcare practitioner can prescribe the appropriate level of iodine supplementation for your individual needs.
Most adults benefit from taking 25 to 50 mg of iodine per day, and children require less. However, individuals who are battling certain illnesses typically require higher levels of iodine to address their needs.
