Aside from the fact that sea water as  such is a veritable treasure trove of minerals, land minerals are  constantly washing into the sea, enriching it still further (Ibid.).  Even more important than the minerals needed in relatively large  amounts, such as calcium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, and so forth, are  the trace minerals--iodine, copper, manganese, boron, zinc, etc. These  minerals appear in minute quantities in food. Our bodies need only  microscopically small amounts of them. Yet if that tiny amount is not  there, we can die from the lack. One of the most important trace  elements in Kelp is iodine. This mineral is essential for the proper  functioning of the thyroid which manufactures the hormone thyroxin. If  an adequate amount of iodine is not provided in the diet, the thyroid  gland is forced to work overtime and becomes enlarged in an effort to  make up for the deficiency. This enlargement is known as goiter. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eKelp \u003c\/span\u003eis  a much better source of iodine than the much-touted iodized salt, which  is chemically isolated sodium chloride to which potassium chloride has  been added. Most of us should not take as much salt as might be needed  to supply the needed amount of iodine. Kelp is the ideal source of  iodine. To get the daily requirement of 100 micrograms of iodine  estimated as the requirement for human beings you would need to consume:  10 pounds of fresh vegetables and fruits, or 8 pounds of cereals,  grains and nuts, or 6 pounds of meat, fish, fowl, or 2 pounds of eggs,  or 3 pounds of marine fish, or .2 pounds of shellfish. Used as a  condiment, Kelp could supply easily the amount required; it contains 10  times as much iodine as American iodized salt (RodC:7 16). 100%  vegetarian capsules.\u003c\/inline\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDETAILS\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Description:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 Capsules\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 Capsule\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Servings:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFACTS\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cinline style=\"font-family: Georgia;
