2 billion individuals worldwide have insufficient iodine intake, with those in south Asia and sub-Saharan Africa particularly affected. Iodine deficiency has many adverse effects on growth and development. These effects are due to inadequate production of thyroid hormone and are termed iodine-deficiency disorders.

Abstract Iodine (atomic weight 126.9 g/mol) is an essential component of the hormones produced by the thyroid gland. Thyroid hormones, and therefore iodine, are essential for mammalian life (1). The native iodine content of most foods and beverages is low, and the most commonly consumed foods provide 3–80 μg/serving (1).

Turkey is an iodine deficiency area. The overall goitre prevalence is thought to be 30%, and most epidemiological studies give figures compatible with mild to moderate iodine deficiency. However, it is suspected that there are regions where iodine deficiency might be more severe than previously known.

Epidemiology of iodine deficiency
Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1992Iodine deficiency (ID) causes goiter, cretinism, neonatal hypothyroidism, irreversible mental retardation, and child and infant death. Over one billion people are at risk, most of them in developing countries. While ID is the primordial factor in these conditions, other environmental and host factors significantly modify the magnitude and clinical ...

Iodine deficiency is one of the major global public health concerns, which is even placed as one of the indicators under global reference list of World Health Organization (WHO) for school age children. Iodine is a vital trace element present in thyroid hormones. It works as a catalyst for many body processes. Its deficiency has multiple adverse health

Epidemiology of iodine deficiency
Minerva Medica, 2017Iodine is an essential component of the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) produced by the thyroid gland. Iodine deficiency impairs thyroid hormone production and has adverse effects throughout life, particularly early in life as it impairs cognition and growth.

The pathophysiology of endemic thyreopathies in extensive endemies is well known. In recent years considerable attention has been attracted even by moderate iodine deficiency, the result of which is not only goiter but a number of health, social and economic problems.

Iodine is an essential trace mineral, required for the production of thyroid hormone. Iodine deficiency may result in goiter, hypothyroidism, miscarriage, stillbirth, congenital anomalies, infant and neonatal mortality, and impaired growth. Adequate thyroid hormone is critically important for normal growth and neurodevelopment in fetal life, infancy ...
