Salt is a staple in kitchens around the globe, and a common variant is iodized salt, which has had iodine added to it—a micronutrient essential for thyroid function. Consumers often wonder about the shelf life of this enhanced product and whether the added iodine remains stable over time. While pure salt (sodium chloride) can last indefinitely if kept dry and unexposed to contaminants, the iodine present in iodized salt can indeed degrade, though it does so very slowly. Factors such as exposure to air, humidity, and storage conditions can influence the rate of deterioration. In optimal storage conditions — cool, dry, and sealed away from light — iodized salt can maintain its iodine content for several years, ensuring that consumers continue to receive its vital health benefits.
For the health-conscious and culinary-minded alike, ensuring the longevity of iodine in salt is a worthwhile concern.
