Kelp & Iodine:
Kelp and seafoods are the most reliable natural sources of iodine because certain vegetables which contain iodine also contain substances which interfere with its absorption by the body. Although a normal diet is believed to contribute 150-170μg of iodine daily, the prevalence of iodine deficiency throughout the world leads us to believe that many people are not getting this amount without recourse to supplementation.
Suggested Intake:
1-2 tablets daily, or take as directed by a practitioner.
