Kelp

What it is

This macroalgae (seaweed) is rich in vitamins, minerals, and trace elements like iodine.

What it does

Metabolic support

Why we love it

Kelp is a significant source of iodine, which the thyroid requires to make the hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). These hormones regulate many important biochemical reactions, including protein synthesis and enzymatic activity, and are critical determinants of metabolic activity.

Source

Specifically sourced from Atlantic sugar kelp that’s grown off the coast of Maine, this type of seaweed boasts high levels of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements like iodine — the latter of which helps play a vital role in every single cellular process, from metabolism to reproduction.
