Iodine's primary role is to support a healthy thyroid gland by activating the production of thyroxine, a hormone that is needed throughout the body for energy production. About 50 to 60 percent of the body's Iodine is stored in the thyroid gland, the rest is distributed throughout the body, especially in ovaries, breast and prostate tissue, muscles, and blood. Women require higher Iodine amounts during periods of puberty and pregnancy.
Iodine plays an important role in many of the body's functions. It helps to support:
Thyroid hormones, which control proper body metabolism that can influence energy production and body temperature
Thyroid function, which influences the adrenal glands
Healthy reproductive function
Nerve and muscle function
Cellular oxygen use
Healthy hair, skin, and bones
The breakdown of fats and proteins

This supplement really seemed to help my partner recover from his cold and helped to prevent me from getting his cold too. Feels like it really worked in cold recovery and prevention! This is one I will definitely have on hand for immune support!
I love this stuff and have been using it for years to make various iterations of energy balls. And these little energy balls are the perfect treat in the early afternoon.
