Liquid Iodine Supplement

Iodine is a vital non-metallic trace mineral found naturally in the diet that the body cannot make. Iodine is found in sea salt, sea fish and kelp. Good sources are plants grown on iodine rich soil and deficiency occurs as many areas of the world have iodine poor soil, especially mountainous areas such as the Alps where erosion has leached away the iodine. Iodine has many important functions.

1 drop of Iodine 11 supplies 1525 mcg of iodine. This can be taken in water or as a drop rubbed into the skin.
