The Intricacies of Iodine with Rachel Arthur

Iodine is an essential mineral that is critical for growth and development. Insufficient iodine status leads to goitre in adults and cretinism in infants, and is particularly important for pregnant women. Iodine deficiency is a growing issue in Australia, largely due to depleted soils and recent changes in dairy sanitation practices. In today's podcast, we welcome back Rachel Arthur who is passionate about separating the facts from the fiction when it comes to the clinical applications of iodine. Rachel shares with us her considered approach to testing, dosages, cautions and contraindications based on over two decades in practice.
