Golden Greens Organic Hebridean Kelp Powder
Harness the nutritional power of the ocean with Golden Greens Organic Hebridean Kelp. Sustainably harvested from the pure, cold waters of the Scottish Outer Hebrides, this fine powder provides a natural, whole-food source of essential iodine. Iodine is a crucial trace mineral that plays a vital role in supporting thyroid health, which in turn influences metabolism, energy levels, and cognitive function.*
Important Notice for Thyroid Health
This product is naturally rich in iodine. Individuals with a thyroid condition or those taking thyroid medication should consult their physician before use. Do not use if pregnant or nursing. Please adhere strictly to the recommended dose.
A Natural Source of Essential Iodine*
Unlike synthetic supplements, our Organic Kelp Powder offers iodine in a natural, bioavailable form, complete with a spectrum of other trace minerals from the sea. Iodine is an element that is essential for human health but cannot be produced by the body, so it must be obtained from your diet. This kelp powder offers a convenient way to ensure you are meeting your body’s needs for this vital nutrient.
Support for Healthy Thyroid Function*
The thyroid gland requires iodine to produce the hormones T3 (triiodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine). These hormones are the master regulators of your body’s metabolism, influencing everything from your heart rate to your body temperature. By providing a natural source of iodine, Golden Greens Kelp Powder supports the thyroid’s ability to produce these crucial hormones, thereby contributing to normal energy-yielding metabolism and overall vitality.*

Expert Insight from an Endocrinologist
“Iodine is indispensable for thyroid hormone synthesis. While many rely on iodized salt, a natural, whole-food source like kelp provides iodine in a matrix of other minerals. For individuals who are not getting enough iodine from their diet, a high-quality organic kelp supplement can be an effective way to support thyroid health. However, because iodine intake directly impacts thyroid function, it is crucial for anyone with a pre-existing thyroid condition to speak with their doctor before starting supplementation.”
