How many millions of American women, Dr. Kathi, do you estimate as being hypothyroid because of the lack of iodine in their diets?

Blue Bunting, American people [male & female, young & old] suffer from deficiencies in various nutrients when living on the "American Diet" of fast food, junk food, processed food.... Would gladly look up the number of women that lack iodine in their diet in America, if it would help you. I am one of them, I take KELP on a regular basis. Stopped taking Thyroxin.
