Iodine in food

[wowserclo]

Is it ok to eat / drink foods rich in iodine while on levothyroxine? I know the dangers of supplementing it. Thanks

I suppose it depends on what you mean by iodine rich foods and how much you have. Here is a list of iodine content in food, normal intake of any of these shouldn't present a problem.

Wowserclo,

It's fine to eat iodine rich food. The only people who need a low iodine diet are those preparing for radioactive iodine ablatement.
