Graves disease is an autoimmune problem in which the thyroid is whipped into a frenzy by Iodine that stimulate the gland.

Graves' disease is caused due to malfunctioning of immune system.  The immune system produces antibodies designed to target a specific virus or other foreign substance

In Graves' disease, immune system attacks  thyroid gland. It results production of more thyroid hormones than your body needs. As a result, many functions of the body speed up. The thyroid is a gland in the neck that makes thyroid hormones.

Important work of the thyroid is to control metabolism. Metabolism is that process where your body transforms food to energy for function.

Iodine is a mineral that helps thyroid in producing hormones. If  thyroid hormone goes low, eating iodine rich food could help in increasing hormone levels.
