Hi, I have a question about eggs and iodine. About a month ago one of my cats started having severe issues with something in his food. He had a major puking attack and got very sick, then recovered as I started an elimination diet of sorts. Long story short, one month and another attack later, I strongly suspect eggs are an issue (hopefully THE issue). So I'm eliminating eggs from at least Monkey's diet.
My question is I've read online that there is iodine in egg yolks. I can't find the exact amount only in the yolk but it looks like there is about 25 mcg of iodine in one egg and "most" of it is in the yolk (so I'm assuming at least 20 or so mcg appx.) My recipe uses 4 egg yolks, so if I'm removing those do I need to add extra lite salt (which is what I use for iodine). Is there anything else I need to add?
