7 FACTS ABOUT IODINE AND ITS INFLUENCE ON THE HUMAN BODY

#SYSTEMPHARM #UKRAINE

🟢 Iodine is a chemical compound and a vital trace element without which the human body cannot function normally. The main physiological role of iodine is participation in the production of thyroid hormones (thyroxine and triiodothyronine), which regulate metabolic processes in the body.

🟢 Iodine, as a chemical compound, is stored in the thyroid gland. Daily, with a sufficient amount of the trace element, the thyroid gland produces approximately 100 mg of thyroxine and 5–10 μg of triiodothyronine (thyroid hormones).

🟢 To find out whether there is enough iodine in the body, you should contact an endocrinologist. During the examination, the doctor will palpate the thyroid gland and prescribe examination methods: determination of the concentration of iodine in urine (ioduria), determination of the concentration of thyroid hormones in the blood, and ultrasound examination. Only these methods will make it possible to determine the insufficiency of the trace element in the body and diagnose the disease associated with iodine deficiency.

🟠 THE REQUIRED DAILY DOSE OF IODINE FOR AN ADULT IS 150 mcg.

🟢 Despite prejudices about the harm of iodine, it is difficult to reach a state where an excess of iodine occurs. This phenomenon is observed in several cases: taking very large doses of iodine preparations, innate sensitivity of receptors to iodine or working in places where a large amount of iodine is released. In this case, poisoning with a trace element called iodism occurs.

🟢 Selenium is part of the enzymes that help the absorption of iodine by the thyroid gland, and participates in the transformation of its hormones into an active form, so combating iodine deficiency is impossible against the background of selenium deficiency.

🟢 The most iodine-rich substances are marine products. The trace element content in some products reaches 800–1000 μg per 100 g of food. The richest iodine-containing foods are fish, seaweed and seaweed. In addition to them, a lot of iodine is found in milk, eggs, meat, cereals, sour cream, kefir, tomatoes, strawberries, eggplants, asparagus and walnuts. It should be remembered that during the culinary processing of dishes, the amount of trace elements decreases.
