Low Iodine Count In Food

Here I found a list of foods that are low in iodine, I have another blog post that has the foods that are high in iodine,  I mentioned in the other blog post that I  am allergic to shell fish and that my doctor informed me that I might just be allergic to the iodine count. 

I feel he was on the right track as I can eat salmon and some other fish and be alright but others I will break out in hives and have to be rushed to the hospital. So please be very careful if you maybe allergic to iodine speak with your doctor and see if you are. also if you find a list that has more please share.
