Please Note: It has been brought to our attention that some people have a difficult time properly absorbing iodine via the digestive tract. In view of that, it is recommended that it be used as an epidermal application, such as on the stomach. Be careful, it will stain clothing. If you are exhibiting signs of hypothyroidism, it is recommended that Thytrophin be taken to rebuild the thyroid gland. Most people have some degree of diminished thyroid function which may not allow for optimal iodine absorption.
(In the case of Hashimoto’s Disease, Iodine should not be used.)
Description Iodine deficiency is a worldwide
problem. Diets that are deficient in iodine can result in many severe
medical conditions including cretinism ( very severe brain damage
occurring in very early life), mental impairment, reduced intellectual
ability, goiter, and infertility. In addition, iodine deficiency
predisposes one to an increased risk of breast, prostate, eudiometrical,
and ovarian cancer. There is a decreased childhood survival rate
associated with iodine deficiency. Studies have shown that neonatal
mortality can be decreased by up to 50% when iodine deficiency is
rectified. Other illnesses may result from iodine deficiency include
sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), multiple sclerosis, and other
myelin disorders.
The world Health Organization
has recognized that iodine deficiency is the world's greatest single
cause of preventable mental retardation. Iodine deficiency has been
identified as a significant public health problem in 129 countries.
Approximately one-third of the world's population lives in iodine
deficient areas and up to 72% of the world's population is affected
by an iodine deficiency disorder.
