Meta description: Vitaday�s Iodine Plus Support contains iodine plus other immune and thyroid supporting compounds to help keep your body running smoothly. Product description: Iodine is an essential trace mineral, which means that your body needs just a small amount in order to function properly � but that small amount is extremely important for healthy thyroid function. The body needs iodine to synthesize thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), which are two thyroid hormones. If you don�t have enough iodine in your body, the body can�t create T3 and T4 � but the thyroid doesn�t give up. It�ll go into overdrive, working harder against impossible odds. If this continues, the eventual result is a bloated thyroid gland, which presents itself as an unsightly goitre. The good news is that it�s easy to prevent an iodine deficiency. You just need to know that you�re getting enough iodine each day. The best way to do this is to know where your iodine is coming from. In addition to being a source of iodine, Vitaday�s Iodine Plus Support contains other immune and thyroid supporting compounds. Selenium � Selenium contributes to normal thyroid function, and it helps to protect your cells from oxidative damage. Copper � Copper helps contribute to normal immune function, protects cells from oxidative damage and contributes to a normal metabolism. Zinc � Zinc also helps protect cells from oxidative damage that can be caused by free radicals, and it is believed to help strengthen the immune system. Vitamin C � Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that is believed to help fight feelings of fatigue. It also plays a role in regenerating spent vitamin E (another powerful antioxidant).
