We know that 1 cup of water weighs 8 ounces, but honey, as an example, is thicker than water, so 1 cup of honey actually weighs in at 12 ounces. Powdered sugar right out of the box or the plastic bag weighs 4 1/2 ounces per cup, so a 1-pound box (or 16 ounces) contains about 3 1/2 cups of powdered sugar. If a recipe calls for sifted powdered sugar, weigh out 4 ounces of sifted powdered sugar to equal 1 dry measuring cup.
Iodine enters the body through iodine-rich foods, including certain salts (âiodized saltâ), eggs, sea vegetables and fish. We rely on iodine to create thyroxine (T4 hormone) and triiodothyronine (T3), two of the main hormones produced by the thyroid that control numerous important functions.
FOODS HIGH IN IODINE. Foods high in iodine can help you obtain the minimum daily requirement. If you believe you have an iodine deficiency, the amount of iodine foods should be increased to help rebuild your thyroid. Dr. Guy Abraham point out, 12.5 mg. - 37.5 mg. in the form of Lugols' Solution is the exact range of iodine the body requires.
