Question explored with the scientific record

Show all iodizad salts without other ingredients

The short version: no product list can be built from these records. They measure iodine levels in salt, not which brands contain only salt and iodine.

The question asks for a product list: iodized salts with no other ingredients. The retrieved studies do not name a single brand or list any product's full ingredient panel. They measure iodine content in household salt samples and cooking water [1][2][3]. So I cannot give you a verified list of additive-free iodized salts from this evidence, and I will not invent one.

What the records do show is that the "iodized" label is unreliable on its own terms. In one Indian survey, most samples printed with the word "iodized" tested below 15 ppm iodine, the adequacy threshold [1]. In Angola, only about 29 in 100 household salt samples were adequately iodized, and one producer's salt measured extremely high [2]. A label claim is not a lab result.

For your actual goal, the practical move is to read the ingredient panel, not the front label. Plain iodized table salt typically lists salt and a tiny amount of potassium iodide or potassium iodate, sometimes with an anti-caking agent like calcium silicate or dextrose as a stabilizer. Those extras are common and are not "other active ingredients" in any meaningful sense. If you want strictly salt plus iodine, look for a short panel with no anti-caking agent, and check the iodine ppm if the package states it.

My call: this retrieval cannot answer a product-list question, and anyone who hands you a brand list without ingredient panels is guessing. Confidence: not clear on products; moderate that label claims underperform lab testing [1][2].

    In a school-based survey in Aligarh, only 16.1% of household salt samples had adequate iodine (>15 ppm) and only 8.7% of 70 families stored salt in airtight containers, indicating poor iodization and storage practices.

    Cooking potatoes, pasta, and rice with KIO3-iodized salt significantly increases their iodine content; small waxy potatoes and egg pasta show the highest uptake, and no iodine loss occurs during cooking.
