Thyroid Disease Is Iodine Deficiency Disease.
- Iodine is a trace mineral needed for metabolism at the level of every cell in the body, including the breasts, pancreas, brain, stomach, adrenal glands, skin, salivary glands, and cerebral spinal fluid.
- T3 hormone (bioactive) is made up of 3 atoms of iodine. T4 hormone (storage) is made up of 4 atoms of iodine.
- The thyroid, ovaries, and white blood cells make T1, T2, T3, and T4 hormones.
- The body requires 12.5 mg/day of iodine for full sufficiency. Of that, the thyroid takes 6 mg/day, the breasts take 5 mg, and the other glands, including the ovaries, grab about 2 mg.
