Did you know that iodine is an essential trace mineral which is vital for normal growth and development?
Iodine is a trace mineral and an essential component of the thyroid hormones, triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4).
These hormones regulate the metabolic activities of most cells and play a vital role in the process of early growth and development of most organs, especially the brain. Inadequate intake of iodine-rich foods leads to insufficient production of these hormones, which adversely affect the muscle, heart, liver, kidney and the developing brain.
Benefits:
- Plays a key role in controlling the function of your thyroid glands
- Helps support bone and brain health
- Contributes in helping regulate the base metabolic rate of the body
- Supports your body’s normal detoxification processes
- Helps support optimal energy levels
