What is kelp good for and what is it used for?

• Kelp is rich in iodine, which contributes to the normal production of thyroid hormones and to normal thyroid function, which controls body temperature and regulates the body’s metabolism.
• 75% of all iodine in the body is found in the thyroid gland, so when a deficiency occurs, thyroid function is often the first to be affected.
