Sea kelp as a natural source of iodine The brown alga Kelp is considered to be one of the most nutritious algae and was therefore at times even called "superfood". In addition to B vitamins, calcium, copper, sodium, sulphur and zinc, it possesses an outstanding amount of the essential trace element iodine. Iodine for the thyroid The best known function of iodine is that it supports the thyroid by contributing to normal production of thyroid hormones. Iodine ingested through food or dietary supplements is absorbed in the intestines and then built into the thyroid hormones T3 and T4. The special thing about iodine from sea kelp is the form in which it is present: monoiodotyrosine. This is an amino acid produced from tyrosine by iodination and is the direct precursor of the thyroid hormones T3 and T4. Further functions of iodine In connection with the thyroid, iodine also supports the energy metabolism, in which the macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats and proteins) are converted into energy. In addition to the importance of iodine for the thyroid, the trace element is needed for the function of the nervous system and cognitive abilities. Cognitive functions include intelligence, thinking, perception, speech and memory. If the skin is dry or flaky, it may also be helpful to have the iodine level checked, as an iodine deficiency can lead to skin problems. The sea kelp supplement has the following advantages highly dosed standardised to 0.15% iodine equivalent to 300µg iodine per tablet supports the thyroid and the nervous system for beautiful skin promotes the cognitive functions contributes to the energy metabolism small tablets, easy to swallow gluten-free, lactose-free, fructose-free without magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide

Vitamin E is the mother of all antioxidants Vitamin E is one of the fat-soluble vitamins. Vitamin E has been considered an essential nutrient since 1968, although it has been known as a dietary component since the 1920s. Only plants can synthesize vitamin E themselves. However, since it also reaches animals via the food chain, albeit to a much lesser extent, the fat-soluble vitamin is found in all cell membranes, so that animal foods also contribute to the Cover demand. Absorption of vitamin E Vitamin E is absorbed in the upper small intestine, whereby this is always linked to fat digestion (fat-soluble vitamin). The absorption rate is increased by medium-chain fatty acids and reduced by polyunsaturated fatty acids such as e.g. B. linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, oxidized, rancid fats, laxatives and absorption disorders in the intestine. Vitamin E as an antioxidant In the human body, vitamin E is primarily involved in cell protection. As an antioxidant, vitamin E is able to protect tissue and cells from free radicals. Free radicals are very reactive substances that can occur as intermediate products in the normal metabolism of every cell. If there is an excess, this is referred to as oxidative stress. Foods with vitamin E The best sources of vitamin E are vegetable oils such as olive oil, sunflower oil, wheat germ oil and corn oil. Nuts are also good sources of vitamin E. Walnuts and Brazil nuts should be mentioned here. Fish such as mackerel, lobster and trout stand out as animal sources.

L-Tyrosine: special amino acid This amino acid is a basic building block for the synthesis of the thyroid hormones thyroxine and triiodothyrionine and is therefore extremely important for the energy metabolism. L-Tyrosine is also required by the body to produce neurotransmitters such as dopamine, adrenaline and noradrenaline and the pigment melanin, which is responsible for coloring the skin and hair. In food The highest amounts of the amino acid are found in animal foods. They include pork, beef and fish such as sardines, mackerel and herring.Vegetarians and vegans, however, can rest easy as there are many good plant-based sources of L- Tyrosine: Soybeans, peas, peanuts, almonds and oatmeal contain high amounts of the amino acid.
