• Eating Disorders: Iodum may help with the eating disorders that include an insatiable appetite that does not produce weight gain.

Iodum assists the body in healing itself from the disorder itself as well as with the symptoms such as excessive thirst, enlarged liver, diarrhea, and even nervousness.
