What is iodine?

Iodine is a trace element involved in various processes in the body. It is particularly associated with the thyroid gland. A well-functioning thyroid is important for proper body growth, the development of the nervous system, and the support of energy metabolism. This trace element naturally occurs in seawater, soil, and drinking water. Through fish and vegetables, iodine enters our food chain. The average diet in the Netherlands is not very rich in iodine. Therefore, there are several products to which iodine is added, such as bread (substitutes), meat (substitutes), and baking and table salt.

 

What are the benefits of iodine?

Iodine has various health benefits:

  • Iodine supports the natural growth process of children
  • Iodine is good for your concentration, memory, and maintaining a clear mind
  • Iodine supports normal energy metabolism
  • Iodine supports learning abilities
  • Iodine helps keep the skin healthy

 

How much iodine per day?

For an adult, an intake of 150 micrograms per day is sufficient. For pregnant women or those breastfeeding, this is slightly higher. The safe upper limit for adults, pregnant women, and lactation is 600 micrograms; for children, it is 200 micrograms per day. If you know that you have a disrupted thyroid function, a high iodine intake can be dangerous. Your treating physician can provide more information about this.
