Iodine
For Skin Health
Iodine is responsible for helping to hydrate the skin. It is for this reason that dry, flaky skin is just one of many iodine deficiency symptoms. Iodine is also paramount for activation of the immune cells that regenerate and heal the skin. If you are deficient in Iodine (like at least 70% of the population) by adding this supplement to your daily routine your skin will look full and hydrated and you will your skin, nails and hair to grow and repair.
For Hormone Balance
Iodine is used first and foremost to create the thyroid hormones; therefore sufficient iodine intake is critical for thyroid health and function. Iodine is also used in the production of Progesterone, and helps to balance oestrogen metabolism whilst supporting ovulation and a regular menstrual cycle. In addition to this iodine helps to stimulate oestrogen receptors and maintain their levels of sensitivity helping to balance the feedback system for balancing hormone levels.
For Stress
Iodine is helpful for balancing cortisol levels which is our key stress hormone. It is utilised in both the creation and clearance of cortisol and our other stress hormones. What is more often overlooked though is the metabolic changes that happen when we are stressed cause iodine to be used up in huge amounts to help us create the energy that our body is demanding from its stress load. This leads to iodine depletion and the knock on effects this has on hormone, metabolic, and immune systems.

Iodine additionally offers powerful antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and antiparasitic properties along with the protective anti-carcinogenic hormone regulation support for healthy breast, prostate, uterine, ovarian, and cervical cells and tissues.
Supplementation is growing ever more important in modern society as environmental exposure to halides (fluoride, chlorine, and bromine) continue to negatively impact our ability to absorb and utilize iodine. These elements all compete against iodine for absorption within our bodies and, sadly, they often win. This can lead to faulty hormone production and iodine deficiencies. Whether we are exposed to fluoride and chlorine in our drinking and bathing water or bromine in our breads and furniture, the little bit of iodine we get (typically from iodized salt) simply isn’t enough.
