  1. Common cause of hypothyroidism is iodine deficiency.
  2. Cravings for salt?!
  3. Potentially hashimoto's thyroiditis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hashimoto%27s_thyroiditis
  4. Epidemiology; common in areas of high iodine consumption(look)
  5. High iodine intakes correlate with thyroid issues and seem to cause hashimoto
  6. Check for potential goitre, class 1 at worst
  7. 1 teaspoon of iodized salt provides nearly 400 micrograms of iodine. teaspoon 5 grams
  8. see doctor, actually.
  9. 500 micrograms or more is potentially too much iodine
  10. Do not try changing iodine intake, seek medical professional. Thyroid functions and hormone levels are complicated and need a special nuance.
