My theory that everything we need is in the ecosystem naturally around us hit a speed bump on iodine - until I learned that it's in dairy products! Understanding that we're not built for processing cow milk after maturity, nonetheless we still need butter, yogurt and/or cheese unless we live by the ocean and have access to lots of fish and seaweed.

The way they are attacking cows though, we've stocked up on iodized salt and Lugol's solution just in case 😁
