Studies–Iodine is the Anti-Wrinkle Mineral You May Need After All

Studies–Iodine is the Anti-Wrinkle Mineral You May Need After All

October 24, 2015 By Corey B

Sometimes all you need is a cut-to-the-chase supplement to add on to your anti-aging diet to help you achieve that elusive skin care for timeless, youthful beauty. It seems iodine is the anti-wrinkle mineral you may need after all.

Iodine is a non-metallic substance considered a trace mineral. Meaning, while the human body does not produce it internally, iodine is essential for good health—and should be obtained from diet. Iodine is primarily used in the body to produce thyroid hormone which in turn supports growth and metabolism. According to the National Institute of Health, most people (70%) not only in America but across the globe get their daily fix from iodized salt. Iodine occurs naturally in some foods as well.

 

Iodine as an anti-wrinkle champion

In retrospect, iodine has been used on burns to speed up the healing process. This point to two important attributes of iodine; regeneration and radiance.

To begin to understand how iodine will help you look ten years younger, it is best to first understand why wrinkles and premature aging occur in the first place. The fact is wrinkles will not naturally show up at any time of living. A National Institute on Aging report indicates that three factors will aid in generating wrinkles.

  • Thyroid hormone function

Iodine is the best mineral to use as far as healthy production of thyroid hormones is concerned. The mineral is needed in the actual production of the hormones that regulate pretty much how the body functions, including metabolism, how the body sips and uses energy and on what activities.

Physicians have established that triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxin (T4), the principal thyroid hormones, are synthesized from minerals iodine and tyrosine. The two hormones aid in many other bodily systems including growth, regeneration and detoxification.

To this end, nascent iodine is the best form to use. Nascent iodine is an electronically charged form of consumable iodine and is most similar to naturally produced iodine in the thyroid gland (from the diet). In addition to its unique and simple structure, this makes it easily identifiable and quickly used in the body. What’s more is the fact that liquid nascent iodine contains no alcohol–a major contributor to wrinkles generation—unlike other liquid forms of iodine.

Now the body regenerates itself and sheds dead cells on the skin and more internally every 14 days. Iodine helps renew your look every so often if consumed in proper form and amount.

  • Immune system function

While wrinkles may come with elderly age, but many times than not it is a fine indication to underlying medical conditions or signs you need a medical checkup.

Depression, diabetes and heart disease are some of the increasingly popular signs of thyroid gland impairment or malfunction. Iodine may help you avoid uncontrollable weight gain or loss, heart disease, lethargy, regulate fatigue and boost your defenses against a plethora of other health risks.

Proper functioning of the thyroid is paramount in both preservation and proper development of health bodily systems. Sufficient levels of iodine in the body impair harmful inflammation in different body parts. Inflammation leads to saggy, loose skin—the reason behind those swollen-looking eyes.

Iodine, according to anti-wrinkles experts, is the mineral you need to tone up, firm up, prevent or reduce wrinkles and sagging skin. Potassium iodide and molecular iodine (I2), for example, helps prevent breast cancer and inhibit harmful thyroid secretions respectively. Healthy and firm breast tissue is shown to be largely made out of non-toxic forms of molecular iodine.

The best form of iodine to bet on for your anti-wrinkle, anti-aging efforts is the detoxified type. Detoxified iodine is almost wholly “bio-available” according to the Edgar Cayce’s formulation of Atomidine. It gradually builds up the thyroid to function properly, better than other denser types of iodine that include the USDA-endorsed, potassium iodine.

Iodine

  • Body Metabolism

In fact, you’ll only endorse iodine foods if you can tell that there any health benefits to eating an iodine diet. Your anti-wrinkle diet is only as good as your body can digest and assimilate it.

As mentioned earlier, iodine is only needed in the body in small quantities. Despite this, iodine deficiency will occur if not enough iodine is consumed over some time since the body does not store iodine.

Again, iodine helps bolster your anti-wrinkle campaign by boosting your metabolism. The thyroid gland is the “think center” that “tells” among others, the digestive system, what to do with the different nutrients availed in food intakes. Iodine is currently being tested to find out if it can not only be used to boost thyroid activity but also if it could be used to control it.

 

The evidence is there to suggest that proper iodine intakes can help boost your anti-wrinkle campaign forward. The mineral, especially in sea-based compounds and foods, can help reduce, prevent and eliminate wrinkles as an effective anti-wrinkle tool in your arsenal.
