Sea vegetable is important food source
Kelp
Kelp, a sea vegetable, has been acknowledged as a detoxifier and a healing plant. Kelp is a good source of more than thirty vitamins and minerals, but is most noted for its iodine content, which the thyroid uses to regulate basal metabolism. The electrolytic magnetic action of kelp helps release excess body fluids from congested cells and dissolves fatty wastes through the skin, simultaneously replacing potassium and iodine. As iodine boosts thyroid activity, food fuels are used before they can turn into fatty deposits. While these characteristics would seem to make kelp an ideal supplement for weight-loss diets, studies have shown that obese individuals who already get enough iodine in their diets are not benefited by kelp. In fact, if too much iodine is supplied, the effect on the user may be deleterious. Anyone with an underactive thyroid should consult a health care professional for an evaluation and diet and exercise management that may include beneficial supplements.
