Would you like to know the role of recording Basal Body temperature in recognizing thyroid hypo / hyper function?
It is fantastic

That is fascinating! What he said about the iodine skin test I find
puzzling, since it doesn't account for the way that on some people it
vanishes within a few hours, while on others it lasts for days. I
wonder if he's addressed this difference anywhere?

The rest, tho, is particularly intriguing. Isn't there any concern
about getting too *much* iodine, if applying it e.g. to multiple sites
or wounds?

Thanks. Finally that myth has been laid to rest for me too.
