We need iodine to maintain growth and health, but we want to prevent exposure to too much iodine. Foods are not normally expected to have enough iodine to harm your health. Unless you are exposed to radioactive waste or emissions, you generally do not have to worry about excessive exposure.

Foods are not normally expected to have enough iodine to harm your health. Unless you are exposed to radioactive waste or emissions, you generally do not have to worry about excessive exposure.
