Description:
Iodine is a vital trace element with high physiological activity, which is an essential structural component of hormones produced by the thyroid gland.
The digestibility of potassium iodide is very fast and 100 percent. It is absorbed by the thyroid gland, where it is oxidized to iodine. It also accumulates in the salivary and lactating mammary glands, in the stomach tissue. It is excreted from the body by the kidneys, partly by the glands - bronchial, salivary and mucous membranes.
Potassium iodide as an additive is used for diseases of the thyroid gland (in particular, endemic goiter) and for the prevention of the accumulation of radioactive iodine in the thyroid gland.
Iodine takes part in regulating the rate of biochemical reactions, affects the energy exchange and maintaining optimal body temperature, regulates water-electrolyte, protein, fat metabolism, is necessary for the growth and development of the body, ensures the functioning of the nervous system and is responsible for the psychological state. Iodine is directly involved in the process of lipid metabolism, helps to activate all types of metabolism, enhances the burning of subcutaneous fat. Iodine deficiency entails consequences that seriously affect human health.
