Thompson's One A Day Kelp 1400 - 120 tabs
New one-a-day formulation!
A high potency convenient one-a-day source of nutrients, in particular, Iodine. An important trace mineral, Iodine is necessary for the production of thyroid hormones, which play a vital role in healthy metabolism.
The Kelp used in Thompson’s One-A-Day Kelp 1400 is harvested from the deep, clean waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Thompson’s ensures that the dried raw herb is thoroughly screened for pesticide residues, heavy metals, aflatoxin and micro-organism contamination prior to extraction. Thompson’s have used a specific variety of Kelp called Bladderwrack (Fucus vesiculosus). Because of the ability of Bladderwrack to accumulate minerals, it is high in a variety of trace minerals and is one of the best natural sources of Iodine.
Iodine is a trace element and is an integral part of thyroxine, a principal hormone produced by the thyroid gland. Thyroid hormones are necessary for maintaining normal metabolism in all cells of the body. Due to decreased consumption of iodised table salt, more people are likely to be susceptible to iodine deficiency and consequently suffer thyroid dysfunction. Through regulation of thyroid function Bladderwrack may increase basal metabolic rate and, by assisting with metabolism, help maintain a healthy weight.
As a rich source of Iodine, Kelp can have a powerful effect on the thyroid gland and, thus, on metabolism in general and the metabolism of fats in particular.
