The one where you put some iodine tenture on a soft body part and if it disappears in less than an hour that means you are deficient. Thanks in advance! Re: Test for iodine deficiency??

Date: April 26, 2011 01:36AM I read about it on the internet. I bought the iodine at the drug store.
Been an hour and stain is still there. I hope it is accurate because that would be one thing I can rule and move on to trying find out what my problem is. Re: Test for iodine deficiency??

Date: April 26, 2011 08:26AM Im still of the opinion that the iodine skin test is not an accurate way to diagnose iodine deficiency.
Blood would likely be better although probably not 100% accurate either. [www.vegankingdom.co.uk] Re: Test for iodine deficiency??
