Warnings Signs & Symptoms of Iodine Deficiency

Iodine deficiency is more and more common even in iodine-replete areas such as the United States.

The only way for humans to get iodine is through their diet and unless you are eating sea vegetables or kelp frequently you are probably not getting enough.

Iodine deficiency manifests as hypothyroid symptoms, goiter formation, pregnancy-related problems and more.

Hey guys!

I'm Dr. Westin Childs and I focus on thyroid health, hormone balance, and weight loss. I write about thyroid disorders, weight loss, insulin resistance, estrogen/progesterone balance on my blog. I truly believe that hormone balance is the key to managing your weight, your mood and your quality of life which is why I'm so passionate about it.

I take a personalized/functional medicine approach to management of conditions. I'm not accepting patients but you can learn more and get plenty of information on my blog!
