Iodine Benefits 💗

Stephanie Lloyd

I have been taking this amazing #organic

Iodine liquid supplement for the last few weeks to help to help with my #metabolism.

THYROID SUPPORT:

Iodine is an essential mineral for thyroid health. Your thyroid uses it to make thyroid hormones, which helps to support an healthy metabolism.*

IODINE DEFICIENCIES:

Deficiencies can lead to fatigue, weight gain, dry, flaky skin and more.

Iodine was first discovered by Barnard Courtois, a French chemist in 1811 while extracting potassium and sodium from seaweed ash. When he accidentally added sulfuric acid, a violet colored cloud evolved from the mass. The resulting gas was condensed into dark crystals-the first occurrence of observed solid iodine

Iodine is essential for healthy brain development in the fetus and young child. A woman’s iodine requirements increase substantially during pregnancy to ensure adequate supply to the fetus.

The function of the thyroid gland is to take iodine, found in many foods, and convert it into thyroid hormones: thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). Thyroid cells are the only cells in the body which can absorb iodine. These cells combine iodine and the amino acid tyrosine to make T3 and T4. T3 and T4 are then released into the blood stream and are transported throughout the body where they control metabolism (conversion of oxygen and calories to energy).
