Score 5.0

Critically misaligned with its stated general wellness goals, this product delivers an extreme and medically unwarranted dose of potassium iodide for daily intake. The trace minerals included do not offset its lack of utility in general bone health, energy, muscle gain, or fitness, rendering it an unsafe and ineffective choice compared to appropriate general health supplements.

Score 5.0

Critically misaligned with its stated general wellness goals, this product delivers an extreme and medically unwarranted dose of potassium iodide for daily intake. The trace minerals included do not offset its lack of utility in general bone health, energy, muscle gain, or fitness, rendering it an unsafe and ineffective choice compared to appropriate general health supplements.

Analysis

This product is designed for acute iodine supplementation, typically in emergency situations or for specific medical conditions, not for general wellness or fitness goals. The dosage of 130 mg of potassium iodide is exceptionally high for daily, non-emergency use and far exceeds the recommended daily intake. The minute amounts of calcium and phosphorus are negligible for bone health support, making this product ineffective and potentially harmful for its listed goals.

Pros
Cons
  • Extremely high and potentially dangerous dose of iodine for daily use.
  • Completely irrelevant to stated goals of energy, muscle gain, and fitness.
  • Negligible amounts of bone-supporting minerals for efficacy.
Warnings
  • Extremely high iodine dosage (130mg is 1000x the adult Recommended Dietary Allowance) can cause severe thyroid dysfunction, including hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism. Not for casual or daily use unless directed by a physician for specific medical conditions or emergencies.

This product contains only 20mg of calcium and 20mg of phosphorus, which are insignificant amounts for providing meaningful bone health support or meeting daily nutritional requirements.
