Contrary to popular belief, iodized salt does not do much in
terms of supplying you with iodine, a nutrient NECESSARY for thyroid health. The el-cheapo salt also does not contain the
numerous other nutrients found in sea weed products. Please note I am talking
about the processed salts enriched with iodine, not Himalayan or natural
mineral salts which supply an array of naturally occurring minerals including
iodine. Even with these salts in your
diet you still need a richer source of iodine to get anywhere near enough of this
important nutrient. Sea weed is it! A serving generally contains more than
enough, which is good because most Americans need more than just a little. Here are two easy ways to make sure you are
eating this super food and getting your daily iodine.
Cabbage Slices: you slice some cabbage, spread on some mayo
and sprinkle with Dulse flakes. So easy
and so good for you!
Turkey Roll Up: Take a slice of a high quality deli meat,
such as Boars Head or Applegate Farms, spread mustard on the slice. Sprinkle on the Dulse flakes and put a thin
slice of Swiss cheese over the whole think.
Roll it up and eat it. Viola, you
have gotten some of an important nutrient that most people rarely get enough
of.
