"Iodine is a mineral substance, which is required in trace amounts for proper growth and development of the body. Every single cell in our body needs iodine. It is stored in the glandular system of the body. Almost 60% of the total iodine in the body is present in the thyroid gland and the rest is stored in the brain, spinal fluid, salivary glands, breasts, ovaries, etc. Most of the iodine is utilized by the thyroid gland for production of thyroid hormones, which are essential for various metabolic processes. Therefore, deficiency of iodine can cause severe harm to human health and may lead to serious diseases like goiter, etc."

Nascent iodine is a consumable form of iodine and is used as a nutritional supplement. It is found in liquid state and has a golden yellow color. Nascent iodine is unique in that it holds an electromagnetic charge and is in an activated state. As a result, it is readily absorbed by the body. Once consumed, nascent iodine will remain 'charged' or energized for the next 2-3 hours. The body considers this active iodine ingredient as the same as that produced naturally by the thyroid glands and it is assimilated into the body almost immediately.
