Iodine is also indirectly responsible for obesity. The thyroid and sex glands work together and if an obese person is given iodine as contained in plants, for example, kelp tablets, the thyroid steps up its hormone production. This, in turn, activates the entire metabolism. The gonads become more active and, as a result, the deposits of body fat decrease.

You can see that iodine is more important than one might think, because this mysterious element, even though present in minute traces, is responsible for operating the ‘gears’ of our body, not unlike the illustration in the proverb, ‘Big oaks from little acorns grow.’

Although the effect of watercress is less marked than that of seaweed, nevertheless it contains a modest amount of iodine and can thus be of good service to the thyroid. Other excellent remedies are the Topinambur tincture Helianthus tub. and homoeopathic Graphitis 6x.
