Verification: Identity and purity verified through independent laboratory analysis
What Iodine Is
Iodine is a trace mineral required for the production of thyroid hormones, which regulate metabolism, energy balance, and cognitive function. Because iodine intake varies significantly in modern diets, consistent daily provision is essential.
Why Iodine Is Included in Apexx01
Iodine contributes to EFSA-authorised nutritional functions:
-
normal production of thyroid hormones and normal thyroid function
-
normal energy-yielding metabolism
-
normal cognitive function
-
normal functioning of the nervous system
-
maintenance of normal skin
Iodine supports the metabolic and neurological foundation of the protocol.
Why This Form: Natural Kelp Source
Kelp-derived iodine is chosen because:
-
it provides a naturally occurring mineral matrix
-
it integrates well into blended powder formulas
-
identity and purity are easily verifiable
-
it avoids unnecessary synthetic additives
The natural source fits The Apex Standard™: verifiable, precise, transparent.
Why This Dose: 150 µg
This level:
-
aligns with daily reference intake values
-
supports thyroid stability without excess
-
remains safe for year-round use across demographics
-
complements other metabolic nutrients in the formula
Consistency is key, not intensity.
How Iodine Works Inside the Full Formula
Iodine interacts with:
-
Selenium → thyroid hormone metabolism
-
B-vitamins → energy pathways
-
Amino acids → thyroid hormone synthesis
-
Magnesium → metabolic enzyme regulation
It stabilises metabolic rhythm, supporting a steady, predictable baseline.
