Sources of Iodine If you think you might have an iodine deficiency, it's smart to go get a simple blood test at your doctor's office to make sure. If you'd just like to increase your iodine intake, here are some easy ways to do it:
1. Seaweed — So good for you overall, packed with fiber and vitamins and minerals, this one should be an easy addition to anyone's day.
2. Sesame seeds — Add to the tops of salads, chicken or throw some in your smoothie.
3. Shrimp and oysters — Did someone mention scampi?
4. Dairy products — Milk, cheese and yogurt are all good sources of iodine. Also, now you really must have that ice cream.
5. Garlic — A super anti-inflammatory that gives yummy flavor to any savory dish.
6. Eggs — Lean protein and iodine? Sign us up. It's important to know, however, that the iodine comes from chicken feed that has iodine in it, so iodine levels vary.
