Sea iodine, 1000 µg, 60 vegetarian capsules

Marine iodine Iodine is a vital and health- promoting trace element . It plays the main biological role in the production of the thyroid hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). T4 and T3 contain four and three atoms of iodine per molecule, respectively. The thyroid absorbs the iodine from the blood to produce these two hormones and then releases them into the blood. Health-conscious people who exercise and vegetarians are often among those most likely to have low iodine levels . And while we're advised to reduce salt consumption , it can also lead to lower iodine levels.
