 Some doctors have suggested that iodine is needed in greater amounts by patients with chronic disease. But, fairly modest increases in iodine intake have been reported to cause thyroid dysfunction, particularly hypothyroidism. Some doctors have suggested that iodine is needed in greater amounts by patients with chronic disease.

 <blockquote>The possibility that high-dose iodine/iodide can relieve certain common conditions is intriguing. Considering the positive anecdotal reports, an empirical trial of iodine/iodide therapy, based on the clinical picture, seems reasonable. The case has not been made, however, that the average person should markedly increase his or her iodine intake in an attempt to saturate the tissues with iodine. Nor has the case been made that the iodine-load test can provide reliable guidance regarding the need for iodine therapy. Thyroid function should be monitored in patients receiving more than 1 mg of iodine per day.</blockquote> <blockquote>The possibility that high-dose iodine/iodide can relieve certain common conditions is intriguing.
