Potassium Iodide 65mg - 30 Tablets Review

Potassium Iodide, sometimes referred to by its chemical formula KI, is a salt of stable iodine (not be confused with radioactive iodine). This stable iodine is essential for healthy thyroid function and is necessary for maintaining normal metabolism in all cells of the body by producing hormones specific to the thyroid. The overwhelming amount of iodine in our bodies comes from our normal diet. Foods rich in iodine include seafood, sea vegetables, kelp, and vegetables grown in iodine-rich soils. Iodines only known function is the role it plays in proper thyroid function. Healthy thyroid function is important for a healthy metabolism, oxygen consumption and energy production. The iodine-dependent hormones that are produced by the thyroid control such functions as body temperature, physical growth, reproduction, and the growth of skin and hair.
