Hi Carla,
Thanks - I checked it out. I have a GNC by my house that carries Kelp so I am getting some today. My mother has been diagnosed with thyroid problem - actually my Dad was too - but he is really not a blood relative. Both of them are now meds. I am wondering whether the fact - that we don't use salt because of blood pressure for my Mom and me trying to avoid having BP issues leads to a lack of needed minerals. I have also read somewhere - that the majority of women could use a little help along these lines - but it was for weight loss program - so I was doing the Doubting Thomas stuff.
Thanks again - Trisha
