Kelp
Kelp supplements are derived from brown seaweed harvested from cold ocean waters and are valued primarily as a natural source of iodine, alongside a range of trace minerals. This category is ideal for anyone looking to support their iodine intake through a marine-derived, whole-food supplement. Kelp products are especially popular with those following plant-based diets, where dietary sources of iodine can sometimes be limited.
Iodine contributes to normal thyroid function, normal production of thyroid hormones, and the maintenance of normal skin, as well as normal cognitive and neurological function and normal energy-yielding metabolism. When choosing a kelp supplement, it is worth checking the declared iodine content per serving, as natural seaweed can vary in concentration. Look for products with a standardised dose so you can be confident you are staying within the EU recommended upper safe level for iodine intake. As with all food supplements, kelp should be used as part of a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle, not as a substitute for a diverse nutritional intake.
