Dairy Products
Iodine can be found in many dairy products due to the iodized feed given to the dairy animals. Therefore, foods such as milk, yogurt and cheese can be good sources of iodine in North American diets.
However, the amount of iodine in dairy products will depend on the amount of iodine feed supplements the dairy cows received. Additionally, sanitizing agents used to clean dairy cows and the milk-processing equipment will also affect the iodine levels.
