Hello practo user
No, it does not have sufficient iodine. And not recommended for hypothyroid patients. Better, use fortified iodine salt. Eg. Tata salt
Hi
Himalayan pink salt have the minerals which is not present in the regular salt.
So you can do one thing just try to use a mix of both salt, sometimes use normal salt and sometimes you use pink salt so that you can get benefit of both the salt.
