Some 1.5 billion people worldwide have worms growing inside them, and there's a simple, cheap fix. For the cost of deworming a single dog in the US, we can deworm more than 100 children abroad. Where else can 50 cents a child have this impact? My column: https://t.co/oA7WraLWug
@Rainmaker1973 Here's another iodine fun fact: Iodine was first discovered in 1811 by French chemist Bernard Courtois when he was extracting potassium from seaweed ash? Turns out, sushi isn't the only connection between iodine and seaweed! 🌿🔬
