However, studies assigned
iodate as strongly hydrating, meaning it resided in the liquid, not at the surface.
The team is looking into the water surface to see
if iodate is absorbed or the water shell that forms rejects the ion at the surface.
While iodate is huge and surrounded by negative oxygen atoms, its central iodine atom takes on a positive character, or becomes a cation.
Results: Like a bull in a china shop, a massive, iodine - based ion
called iodate should disrupt the surrounding water molecules until it is forcibly expelled.
The research team took on that puzzle by integrating computer simulations and experimental studies
with iodate.
What's Next: The researchers are further delving into the mysteries
of iodate.
Here are some foods that physicians tell their patients to avoid when trying to limit their iodine intake: iodized salt, sea salt, aged cheeses, egg yolk, sea - products, including kelp, cured meats, bread and pasta that
contain iodated dough conditioners or iodized salt, foods and medications that contain dyes (e.g. FD&C red dye # 3, erythrosine etc.), molasses, soy sauce, soy milk, meats injected with flavor enhancers, fish oils — including cod liver oil.
Processing aids such as calcium
iodate, potassium iodate, potassium iodide and cuprous iodide act to increase the content of iodine in certain foods.

Iodate a Strongly Hydrated Cation?»
Methods: When examining the behavior of large ions in water, the conventional wisdom is that large anions, negatively charged ions, such as
iodate (IO3 --RRB- should disrupt the ordered structure of water.
By tightly surrounding itself with water,
the iodate is able to blend into the water.
