Iodine helps regulate thyroid function and supports hydrated hair and hair loss. Food sources: Fish, seaweed, kelp, iodized salt, garlic. Daily dose: 150 mcg.
Iodine is called the "metabolizer." Iodine is one of the most vital of the biochemical elements and has one of the highest vibratory frequency rates of all the elements. Iodine mainly affects the thyroid, which not only controls many important functions in the body. Iodine restores heat and assists calcium in the repair and building of tissue in the body. Iodine is stored mostly in the thyroid and in smaller amounts in the muscles, skin and bones.
The thyroid gland secretes Iodine. Hormones produced by the thyroid regulate and control the metabolism of the body, increasing the assimilation of salts. These hormones also control digestion, heart rate, body temperature, nervous system, the reproductive system and body weight. Iodine supports brain activity by destroying harmful toxins and helps neutralize toxins in the rest of the body. Iodine aids the assimilation of calcium and silicon.
Suggested Use for Iodine:
Adults: 1 teaspoon to 1/2 ounce (1 tablespoon) daily. May be added to fruit or vegetable juice.
Children: 1/4 teaspoon daily. For infants, consult a physician.
Important Notes Concerning Iodine:
The suggested daily amount of Iodine is an absolute minimum intended to supplement a very well balanced diet. Should your diet be less than perfect, increasing your Iodine intake may be beneficial. Since ionic Iodine does not build up in the body, it never reaches toxic levels. Therefore feel free to find the amount that works best for you.
