Whole Body Iodine is a concentrated iodine product delivering iodine in both it's elemental iodine and iodide forms.
Iodine is an essential trace mineral necessary for the production of thyroxine (T4). Although approximately 80% of the dietary intake of iodine is sequestered by the thyroid gland, other tissues concentrate iodine as well. They include salivary glands, gastric mucosa, mammary glands, ovaries and the choroid plexus.
However, iodine is often found lacking in the typical Western diet. Consequently, as a result of decreased iodine status, sufficient thyroxine cannot be produced, negatively impacting thyroid function. The use of oral iodine/iodide can aid in circumventing this issue. Interestingly, published information suggests iodine/iodide helps to maintain healthy hydroxyl estrogen ratios as well.
