FAQ:

Q: Isn’t iodine supplementation just for preventing goiter?

A: Actually, only a small amount of iodine is really necessary for preventing goiter. But today, doctors have found that all tissues of the body require iodine. The breasts, ovaries, uterus, thyroid, brain and prostate tissue require large quantities of iodine. In the early 1900s Dr. Szent-Györgyi, the discoverer of vitamin C, was reported to have said that they did not know what iodine did in medical terms but it did everything good and was used for almost all health conditions. It is also reported that he himself ingested 1,000 mgs a day of iodine.

Q: Can iodine really make that much of a difference?

A: Yes. Consider this example: The quality of health of Japanese women is far superior to women in the United States. It has been estimated that Japanese women ingest 12.5 mgs of iodine daily. On the island of Okinawa, there is a higher percentage of people over 100 than anywhere else in the world. It has been reported that they ingest, through their diet, 80 to 200 mgs of iodine daily. Although it’s mostly recognized for its role in the formation of thyroid hormones, many organs in the body utilize iodine. Breast, uterine, prostate, brain, and ovarian tissues in particular have high iodine requirements.

Q: Why not just take one form of iodine?

A: Adding iodine to your regimen can certainly have benefits overall, but these three forms of iodine are more selective for different tissues. For instance, we include molecular iodine because of research that reviewed study results of breast health. It noted that while all forms tested (molecular iodine, sodium iodide and potassium iodide) produced beneficial effects, the best results for breast support were achieved with molecular iodine.*

However, in the case of thyroid health and the creation of thyroid hormones, sodium iodide and potassium iodide are the best form for support.*
