Iodine is an element of metal salts, and the body needs in moderate quantities

The human body contains the amount ranges between 10 to 30 mg of iodine(8 - 10 mg in the thyroid gland (or about 65%),And 0.5 mg in the muscles and structure),Is found in small quantities in the liver, ovaries and adrenal
Iodine metallic chemical element of the halogen family halogen group(Statins and bromine, chlorine and fluorine), a heavily.
Iodine appears in the form of a solid material with a black gloss to slash blue
The smell exciting window at normal temperature,
But when it is exposed to heat it transcends sublimation
(Turns) of solid-state to a gaseous state.
Story of the discovery of iodine:
Back story of the discovery of iodine by Courtois to the year 1811,
Who discovered the existence of the algae, which is close to the Fox family (plant Dgera)
And was at discovered Bnevsjia, the so-called «Faoulih any that would like any dark purple,
If the color purple dust iodine, and here came the word iodine from a Greek word meaning "purple"
Iodine functions:
- A sine qua non for the production of the hormone thyroxine, which is produced by the thyroid gland

(Iodine is necessary for the safety of the thyroid gland, Venqs lead to amplify)

- Regulates the growth and function of nerve (an important role in the development of the nervous system)

The muscles and the energy conversion process and speed up the process of metabolism
(Iodine helps to metabolize (burn) the excess fat)

- Plays a key role in the growth of the fetus, so it is essential for the growth of

And physical and mental development

- Contributes to the mechanism of oxidation at the level of the liver cells in the production of red balls

- Is necessary to maintain the connective tissue in the body that have strings
Ligaments and includes tissue to each other

Iodine sources:
Of fish include: tuna, herring or herring, sardines, salmon,
Agheids, Alhdhuq, smoked mackerel, mussels, lobster,

Swelling of the salivary glands, diarrhea and vomiting
Iodine deficiency and hypothyroidism
Beware of too much handling raw plants Family Barashikih

Falcrenb or broccoli, mustard or kale or spinach, peaches or pears

Hinder the entry of iodine into the thyroid gland,
Also reduce the biological activity of iodine in the body,
In the end, will be less benefit from it
