It has been found that 1 in 10 Americans does not get the proper amount of iodine. Iodine is responsible for many roles in the body. It is needed for proper thyroid function –the thyroid gland regulates most of the endocrine system-- cellular metabolism, healthy hormone production, cancer prevention and immune response.
