Iodine is a micronutrient necessary for life and proper functioning. Its most important role played by the human body is to support the work of the thyroid gland by participating in the production of thyroid hormones.2 Thanks to its inorganic form (potassium iodide), the ESSENCE Iodine dietary supplement is much better absorbed, thanks to which we are more sure that it will work correctly, expectedly.

Thyroid support

Iodine is an element necessary for the proper functioning of the human body. The role of iodine is to participate in the production of thyroid hormones in the thyroid gland, where 70-80% of this element is stored (2).

For the proper development and functioning of the human body, an adequate amount of produced thyroid hormones - thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) - is necessary, which in turn depends on the appropriate supply of iodine (an essential micronutrient). (2)

Much better digestibility

Dietary supplement ESSENCE Iodine contains iodine in the form of potassium iodide, i.e. the inorganic form of this element. As a result, iodine absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract is much better absorbed, giving you confidence in its effectiveness. (1)

The action of iodine:

• helps in the proper production of thyroid hormones and in the appropriate functioning of the thyroid gland (3)
• helps in the appropriate functioning of the nervous system (3)
• contributes to maintaining proper energy metabolism (3)
• helps maintain healthy skin (3)
• contributes to the appropriate development of cognitive functions (3)

Iodine deficiency

The demand for iodine in the human body varies depending on the age, health and physiological state in which it is at the moment. Iodine is absorbed in the digestive system (intestines), and 70-80% is used to synthesise thyroid hormones. Its deficiency may cause e.g. structural changes in the thyroid gland. (5) The main symptoms of iodine deficiency are slow metabolism, fatigue, cold feet and hands, lack of concentration, and anaemia. (6)
