Although only needed by the body in small amounts, iodine plays a vital role in health and well-being. The thyroid gland uses iodine to produce the hormones thyroxine and tri-iodothyroxine, which control our metabolic rate, that is, the rate at which our body burns fats and sugars to release energy.
