Liquid Iodine Forte™ supplies 150 mcg of iodine (as potassium iodide) per drop. Iodine is an essential trace mineral, and is vital to healthy thyroid function.
Approximately 80% of the dietary intake of iodine is sequestered by the thyroid gland. However, other tissues concentrate iodine as well, including salivary glands, the gastric mucosa, choroids plexus, the lactating mammary gland and the ovaries. Decreased iodine status may result in an insufficient production of thyroxine, thus negatively impacting thyroid function. Vegetarians may also be at increased risk of iodine deficiency.
WHY SUPPLEMENT WITH LIQUID IODINE FORTE?
Iodine contributes to normal cognitive function and nervous system as well as normal energy-yielding metabolism, maintenance of normal skin, as well as normal production of thyroid hormones and thyroid function.
Normal development and growth of children are dependent on healthy iodine levels. Use where a need has been determined by a healthcare practitioner.
