Super Iodine Plus (60 Count)
Iodine is a trace mineral that is quintessential for many biological processes including production of thyroid hormones, healthy thyroid function and metabolism. Iodine's primary role is to keep the thyroid gland healthy by maintaining a sufficient supply of thyroxine; a crucial hormone that is needed throughout the body.
Thyroxine (which is one of the thyroid hormones), controls proper biochemical metabolism which greatly influences weight loss, energy production and body temperature. Healthy thyroid function supports the adrenal glands, reproduction, nerve and muscle function, cellular oxygen use, the health of hair, skin and bones as well as the breakdown of fats and proteins.
It’s a popular misconception that, as long as your salt is of the ‘iodized’ variety, all your worries about adequate iodine intake are over.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
The amount of iodine in today’s iodized salt is incredibly tiny, designed to be just enough to prevent the actual disease state of goiter (a once-prevalent problem in many areas of the U.S.) however, such an amount in no way begins to take advantage of the huge benefits that can come from higher iodine doses.
Iodine is the primary component of the thyroid hormones, which are the top metabolic regulators of the entire body (not just the thyroid). This includes all the body’s glandular systems, but even affects such diverse areas as the skin, the hair, and even breast tissue. Plus, when the body is permitted to luxuriating a constant supply of iodine, the entire body can enjoy a higher metabolic rate, a vital concept not only for weight loss, but also for energy levels, mood, sleep, and even the immune system.
However, a higher intake of iodine may not be the entire answer if it isn’t adequately transported to the cells that desperately need it. Our Super Iodine Plus also includes both selenium, and riboflavin (vitamin B-2), which are important co-factors in proper utilization of this vital nutrient.
