## Description

Why You Need It, Why You Can't Live Without It, by David Brownstein M.D., 5th Edition, 2014 Iodine is the most misunderstood nutrient. After 17 years of practicing medicine, I can say that it is impossible to achieve your optimal health if you do not have adequate iodine levels. I have yet to see any item that is more important to promoting health or optimizing the function of the immune system than iodine. Learn what forms of iodine you need and why there is not enough iodine in salt. See how iodine can breast cancer, fibrocystic breast disease, detoxification, fatigue, Graves' disease, and Hashimoto's disease. Find out why iodine deficiency may be the root cause of thyroid problems including hypothyroidism and thyroid cancer. Discover how to get iodine in your diet and improve your immune system.

Review: Good info - A very good book on iodine. Can be life changing for many.
Review: Important info; well-written - So glad I got this book about the importance of taking iodine (beyond the low RDA that is standard). Easy to read, yet containing the studies that show why extra iodine is essential. The included testimonials are also helpful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must read for starting your health journey!
*by W***R on February 13, 2026*

This is a great book and well written but an easy read. It is information that everyone should be aware of if they are serious about being more healthy and helping your body be the best it can be. The current guidelines for iodine fall far below what the body needs and this doctor presents it in an easy to understand format with lots of case histories etc.
