Iodine source and great salt
Great salt, punchy flavour and a source of iodine. Not much more you could ask for. If you've considered it but never brought it, just do it and try it, you can thank all the reviews later
So pleased Ocado sell this.
Tastes slightly saltier than other salts so I just use less. So pleased Ocado sell this as Iodine helps the thyroid gland to make the hormone thyroxine. Thyroxine controls many of the ways certain cells work. Thyroxine is important for the growth of bones and nerves, and how proteins, fats and carbohydrates are used in the body. Thank you Ocado for selling
best salt you can get
As explained in other reviews, iodised salt is healthier than average salt. Besides this, I find this salt more salty than the average non iodised salt, and this helps me to use less of it, which is also healthy. Really happy Ocado sells this, I always buy it every time I shop on Ocado
Good for health
Iodine is not readily available from common foods, but everyone needs it in their diet. Iodised salt is the easiest way to obtain iodine. Thank you Ocado for stocking this salt.
Just buy it.
Tastes the same but it’s a source of iodine. Iodine deficiency is a serious and underdiscussed issue in the UK and simple changed like this can help avoid neural tube defects and lifelong difficulties in learning and prosessing.
Please continue to stock Ocado!
This is one of the only Iodised salts I can find...and such a great price! It is great quality too. Please continue to stock Ocado. For those who aren't sure what the purpose of adding iodine to salt is...it is to help prevent goiters caused by iodine deficiency. As a Vegan eating more cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflour, kale, peanut butter, teas and soy can cause your body to not absorb iodine which in turn disrupts the production of thyroid hormones by interfering with iodine uptake in the thyroid gland. This triggers the pituitary to release thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which then promotes the growth of thyroid tissue, eventually leading to goiter. Taking in iodine in your diet, such as via iodised salt, combats this risk. It also helps to combat other lesser known symptoms of iodine deficiency along with thyroid problems, they can include squinting, deafness, breast cysts, and developmental disorders.
