It also has good stability and is approved as an iodine supplement. Iodine is essential for good health and is needed for effective thyroid gland operation, which affects the body’s metabolic and immunity functions. In the event of exposure to radiation, potassium iodate is also specified as a “thyroid blocking agent” to prevent uptake of radioactive iodine.

Applications
Potassium iodate is sometimes used for iodination of table salt to prevent iodine deficiency. Because iodide can be oxidized to iodine by molecular oxygen under wet conditions, US companies add thiosulfates or other antioxidants to the potassium iodide. In other countries, potassium iodate is used as a source of dietary iodine. It is also an ingredient in some baby formula milk.
