Iodine is an essential dietary nutrient that helps the body to produce thyroxine, the hormone that regulates normal growth and development. The quantity of iodine requirement is minute i.e. 150-200 micrograms per day which amounts to a pinhead a month. An average lifetime requirement of an individual would be less than a teaspoonful of iodine. Still iodine deficiency is one of the major public health problems faced by the developing world with more than one billion people at risk.- A Study on Goitre Prevalence and Knowledge and Use of Iodised Salt in South Orissa
