'''Effect of iodine deficiency on fetal development during pregnancy''' Iodine is an essential part of life. This micronutrient is required for the biosynthesis of thyroid hormones and contributes to normal growth and development. The body itself cannot produce iodine, and we are therefore at risk of experiencing deficiency if our diet doesn't reach the requirements. Pregnant and lactating women are particularly vulnerable, due to increased iodine demand. (Toloza et al, 2020) According to research, it is estimated that two billion suffer from iodine deficiency. (Andersson et al, 2005) The most visible symptom of the insufficiency is the goiter, an increased size of the thyroid gland. Still, the most common problem is the impaired neurodevelopment, especially in early life. (Zimmerman, 2011) |
