Iodine: An Essential Nutrient and Holistic Option for Detoxing Heavy Metals and Halogens
Iodine is an essential nutrient.
The body does not make iodine, so you have to consume it.
The modern food supply is no longer a reliable source of iodine, and 95% of Americans are deficient in it.
There are iodine receptors in every cell of the body. Iodine stimulates the production of hormones, the body’s chemical messengers.
Because we live in an increasingly toxic world, iodine supplementation is crucial. Pharmaceuticals, food, water, and air contain high levels of heavy metals like mercury, lead, cadmium, and arsenic, and the halogens chlorine, fluorine, and bromine.
- Mercury is used in dental fillings, vaccines, and seafood.
- The city of Flint, Michigan poisoned its citizens by using lead pipes for the water system.
- Cadmium is found in some foods, cigarette smoke, and batteries.
- Arsenic is used to treat wood for building homes.
- Chlorine is added to swimming pools and municipal water supplies and is used to manufacture paper.
- Fluorine (in the form of fluoride) is used in dental treatments and added to water supplies.
- Bromine is found in commercially processed baked goods, sports drinks, jet fuel, and pesticides.
All of these elements compete for the iodine receptor sites in the body. Without enough iodine in the system, detrimental heavy metals and halogens inhibit the optimal production of hormones and disrupt enzymes.
Hormonal dysfunctions manifest as metabolic disorders and diseases such as:
- Diabetes
- Cancer
- Hyper- and hypothyroidism
- Goiter
- Cystic conditions
With enough iodine in the system, hormone production and enzyme activity runs more efficiently and metabolism is optimized. Iodine preferentially binds to the iodine receptor sites in the body, and iodine supplementation immediately begins the excretion of halogens and heavy metals.
Iodine is fundamental to optimal health and can protect from environmental toxins.
Cheers to your health & happiness!

An essential indeed. Not just for detox and protection but literally an essential nutrient the body needs and is likely not getting.
I take it everyday and don’t go anywhere without it.
Indeed! This nutrient has so many important, significant roles in the body. Heavy metal detox & protection is but one fascinating property of it!

I'm eating my seaweed daily and sometimes make tea from it. I hope it is enough to matter.
Seaweeddoea have some iodine in it but can sometimes have mercury or radiation also depending on where in the sea it comes from.
Also it’s hard to travel with and less convenient to take.
I'm in SE Asia, so I just do the best I can. Seaweed is easy to find here and iodine is not.
Women have twice as many iodine receptors as men, so its doubly important to find a high quality source so you get enough each day.
I also believe that Iodine can offset the radiational affects of sun, cellphones, chem-trails, etc. What is amazing to me is how much the body can take, but detoxing should be on everyone's mind for sure... and a part of their life.
True
Yes one more of its incredible properties is the ability to detox and protect against radiation!!! A properly nourished body is protected against an incredible amount of stressors, but nutritional deficiencies are like chinks in our natural armor. Given the pollution of the modern environment, it is potentially more important than it has ever been to clean out the crap and replace it with necessary helpful building blocks for thrival!
That sounds very interesting and definitely something I would love to use.
Check it out online, lots and lots of valuable info on the website.
