Would your body absorb all the iodine it needs through your skin if you rub iodine antiseptic from the drug store? What about swimming in the ocean?

I currently have not thyroid and have finally gotten regualted on 31/2 grains of armour. Through some blood work have found that I am Iodine deficeint. I do the skin absorbtion test every few days becasue I am also taking large amounts of kelp. The first time I did it, it took less than 6 hours to absorb. As I have maintained my kelp dosage over the past few months my absorbtion rate has increased to over 24 hours which is where it is suppose to be at. The first day I took additional iodine I notice a skip in my step, it was not like a night and day expereince but I have noticed a difference in my energy and mood. Hope this is helpful. And all this came from going to several endorin docs over the past 7 years and then finally finding a ND who really dived in to figure out what was going on with me. Hope this is helpful.

My natural doc did a 24 hour skin absorption test yesterday of iodine..2 square inch patch. It was gone in 2 hours.Anyone have any info wisdom they'd like to share? I have heard so many conflicting things, that I came here, cause I trust doc Mercola and some of the regulars wisdom here.

Anyone have any to share?
