Tri-Iodine provides the three beneficial forms of iodine you need most.
Tri-Iodine contains three beneficial forms of iodine to nourish multiple body systems. Three forms are included because different tissues in the body prefer different forms.
Examples for each form of Iodine and it's use in the body
- Your thyroid tissue absorbs iodine best as potassium iodide,
- while breast tissue takes up iodine in the form of molecular iodine.
- Additionally, there is evidence that using sodium iodide enhances absorption of the other forms.
