🧠 Iodine and the thyroid gland: where is the line between benefit and risk?

Our body really needs iodine - without it, the thyroid gland would not be able to produce hormones responsible for metabolism, energy and mood. But an excess of this element is just as dangerous as its deficiency.

🔵Iodine deficiency causes the gland to work with overload - fatigue, brittle hair, swelling appears.

🔵 Excess iodine may cause inflammation, increase autoimmune reactions and lead to hormonal failure.

Doctors call this a U-shaped relationship: problems start with both deficiency and excess.

👆 Important

You can't take iodine supplements without testing.
