Cytoplan_Organic Kelp Supplement_60_Capsules # 3306

Kelp and seafood are the most reliable natural sources of iodine because certain vegetables which contain iodine also contain substances which interfere with its absorption by the body. Although a normal diet is believed to contribute 150-170μg of iodine daily, the prevalence of iodine deficiency throughout the world leads us to believe that many people are not getting this amount without recourse to supplementation. Cytoplan kelp (a type of seaweed) contains the species Ascophphyllum nodosum.
Our kelp is iodine rich and also contains a broad spectrum of minerals, trace elements, micro-nutrients, vitamins, prebiotics and carotenoids
