The Importance of Iodine for Thyroid Support

According to Dr. Kae Thompson-Liu, of the four possible fundamental building blocks to health—water, salt, soda and iodine—iodine seems to be the least understood and most neglected. The main purpose of iodine is to help in the synthesis, storage, and secretion of thyroid hormone.

Iodine has many important functions. To name just a few: it coats incoming allergenic proteins to make them non-allergenic. It is an anti-cancer and anti-autoimmune disease agent. Most importantly, iodine is an antiseptic. In the stomach, iodine deactivates all biological, and most chemical, poisons. “Its antiseptic potency and safety has never been equaled or surpassed,” Thompson-Liu remarks. “Dilute iodine solutions kill all single celled organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa and even staphylococcus, with few side effects and no development of bacterial resistance.”

The systems of tadpoles are flushed with iodine at the point they become air-breathing frogs. It is hypothesized that in infants, their bodies are similarly flushed with iodine as they are born. This would make iodine critical for fetal development. Autopsies of healthy people who die of so-called natural causes showed trace amounts of iodine in almost all tissues and organs. These few examples illustrate the importance of iodine. They also help us understand the array and intensity of symptoms possible when people are deprived of iodine.


Additional Support: Homeopathy

The homeopathic remedy Thyroidinum, at a 9C dose or higher will help speed up thyroid function. For hypothyroidism, a commonly available and commonly used dose is 12C. Do not take a dose lower than 9C! Lower doses slow thyroid function.


Conclusion

The thyroid, though tiny, is extraordinarily powerful. A properly functioning thyroid can make a huge difference in one’s quality of life. Hypothyroidism is widespread—but it can be treated. Remember to see a doctor if you think you have thyroid problems!!!
