Iodine

Iodine is required for the production of thyroid hormones.

Thyroid disease may occur due to either too low or high intake of the compound.

Thyroid hormone is an important hormone for regulation of growth and energy metabolism.

The compound if found in several types of seafood, including seaweed and algae. However, for most, iodized salt is the most common source of iodine.

Iodine supplements are not necessary for most people because we typically get plenty of this mineral in our diets.
