3 Reasons for Women to Supplement With Iodine

Your body changes over time. You may notice feeling less energy, unwanted weight gain, or even thinning hair.

As your body ages it loses some of it’s nutrients, which affects the bodies primary functions, among other things. Many women continue using the same health regimen they’ve always used, even as their bodies change over time.

We suggest nourishing your body with extra loving care through these beautiful years of your life, instead of neglecting them. Iodine supplementation can have amazing health benefits like increased energy, improved mental clarity, and a healthy metabolism… but some women don’t know why or how much to take.

Read this guide to help you understand why getting enough iodine each day is so important for your body.

1. Your body needs iodine.

Iodine is an essential mineral that your body needs, but does not make on its own. Did you know that every cell in the body requires iodine? Iodine is not only necessary for the production of thyroid hormones but also for the production of all other hormones inside the body.

Unfortunately iodine deficiency has increased more than 4 times over the past 40 years. Studies show that nearly 74% of normal, “healthy” adults may no longer consume enough iodine. Iodine is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies in the world. (1,2,3)

It’s always a good choice to get your daily iodine requirements from the foods you eat, but as we age our ability to properly digest foods declines. This decline in digestion can lead to nutrient deficiencies.

Another big problem is that our soils are becoming more and more depleted of nutrients. One study, showed that US soils have declined in nutrients by up to 38%. There’s more evidence to suggest that pesticides are further killing off microbial activity in the soil, making the crops further deficient in these essential vitamins and nutrients. The truth is, we are simply not getting enough iodine from diet alone. (4)

2. Increased energy and a boosted metabolism.

If you feel tired or constantly fatigued, this could be due to a lack of iodine in your diet. You may know that iodine is important for good thyroid function, but did you know that it also helps regulate the metabolic rate? That’s why a lack of iodine could sap your energy, cause you to gain weight, and even affect your mood.
