Seagreens – Iodine+
Iodine is one of the most important minerals for health – not least for hormone production and regulation, particularly in the thyroid gland which regulates many bodily functions.
Each Iodine+ Capsule contains 100% whole Seagreens® wild Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed, providing typically 350 micrograms of natural iodine in a single capsule. The jar lasts for 2 months at one capsule per day.
These capsules slide open so that the content can also be taken in a juice or smoothie.
Uniquely, Seagreens® products contain no additives whatsoever and all capsules are ‘Trufilled’ which means that they always deliver the stated amounts per capsule.
All Seagreens® seaweed is independently monitored and free from allergens and harmful contaminants, its composition carefully studied over the past 20 years.
The Seagreens® capsules have the added benefit of being Iodine ‘+’.Â
The ‘plus’Â is that Seagreens naturally contains all the other micronutrients needed for the proper transport and metabolism of iodine including selenium, tyrosine, zinc, copper, vitamins A, B2, B3, B6 and C.
The recommended daily use of 2 Food Capsules per day thus provides an equivalent daily intake of iodine but with double the balance of all the other nutrients.

Instructions
One Iodine+ Capsule daily with your first food or drink of the day, typically provides 350µg of naturally chelated stable iodine, which is approximately twice the RNI (British Government’s estimated average requirement for 98% of the population).
For children under 5 we suggest half this amount - the capsule is easily opened and half the content added to a juice or smoothie. Seagreens® is particularly good in apple or mixed vegetable juices.
