Abstract/Notes In the last installment of this series I examined in detail how iodine finds it way into the thyroid.

Given its complexity, though, why exactly is it important that we understand the NIS and the whole process of transport into the thyroid? The reason, as I suggested, is the fact that, despite all the very positive (iodine and breast health) and negative information I have presented on iodine so far, the main controversy underlying the issue of milligram iodine dosing is the impact high dosing has on the thyroid. Is it harmful to the thyroid?
