Although it’s well established that iodine is necessary for thyroid hormone production, its therapeutic benefits extend far beyond that.

Iodine is present in every cell of our bodies and has antibacterial, antiviral, anti-parasitic, and anti-cancer properties and is required for proper immune function. It’s also vital for the normal architecture of essential glandular tissues such as the breasts, ovaries, uterus, pancreas, and prostate.
