Description
The treasure of the sea
Sea Kelp, or seaweed, contains more than 50 trace elements present in the sea, which is perhaps the most balanced source of trace elements in the world. The content of iodine is also the most significant among the trace elements.
Why do we need trace elements at all?
This is the theory of the weakest link. No matter how strong a chain is, it will break where there is a weak eye. For nutrition, this means that if there are 100 nutrients, the lack of which can cause problems in the body, even though we eat 99 in sufficient quantities. A complete lack of a single vitamin, mineral, or trace element can be as problematic as eating half of it.
The seaweed tablet contains a large amount of iodine.
Iodine is widely known to be a contributor to thyroid hormones. Normally, an adult has about 15-20 mg of iodine in his body. It plays an important role in maintaining the healthy functioning of the thyroid gland as it is an essential component of the hormone it produces. The thyroid gland regulates the metabolism of cells to determine how quickly and efficiently energy-producing molecules are used. Iodine deficiency reduces the body’s physical and mental performance.
Sea Kelp contains significant amounts of natural iodine!
Iodine is especially needed for the following functions:
- It contributes to the maintenance of normal mental functioning.
- Involved in normal energy producing metabolic processes.
- It contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
- It also contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, nail and hair condition.
- Iodine contributes to the normal production of thyroid hormones and the normal functioning of the thyroid gland.
- Regulates metabolism.
The absorption of iodine depends on the body’s iodine saturation. The absorption of enough plants is negatively influenced by, among others, kale, cabbage, radish, Brussels sprouts. However, the goitrogens they contain (naturally occurring compounds that interfere with the production of thyroid hormones) are highly sensitive to heat, so if you consume them, you may want to cook them.
In addition, it is also affected by fluoride and nitrate (toothpastes, industrial meat products), both of which are inhibited.
Seaweed is an excellent source of natural iodine. Vitaking Iodine daily dose (4 tablets) contains 600µg iodine (123mg from Sea Kelp)
