Hmmm. Ah, so Granny was right after all.I found this, Cherry:
Why do you give iodine in hyperthyroidism?
Hyperthyroidism speeds up the body's processes causing nervousness and anxiety, rapid heartbeat, missed or light menstrual periods, sleep problems, hand tremors and other problems. The thyroid gland needs iodine to make these hormones. The thyroid is the most efficient organ at concentrating iodine.Sep 8, 2020
Google also says: "Since hyperthyroidism also increases appetite, some patients may not lose weight, and some may actually gain weight, depending on how much they increase their caloric intake."
