Iodine is an element that is needed for the production of thyroid hormone. The body does not make iodine, so it is an essential part of your diet. Iodine is found in various foods. Iodine allows the body to function well. Some of the deficiency diseases caused due to this deficency is caused due to shortage of Iodine.

Goitre - The thyroid gland which is in our throat gets enlarged .. In children it leads to retarded physical and mental growth.

A person with goitre needs to have food with iodized salt, seafood, and leafy vegetables. People living in hilly areas have a soil deficient in iodine and have tendency of goitre.

Goiter  is the enlargement of the thyroid gland and is not cancerous. A person with goiter can have normal levels of thyroid hormone (euthyroidism), excessive levels (hyperthyroidism) or levels that are too low (hypothyroidism). 

The thyroid is a gland, shaped like a butterfly, located at the base of the neck, just below the Adam's apple. If the thyroid gland grows larger than normal the patient has a condition known as goiter. Goiters are generally painless; however, if the gland gets very large the patient may have problems swallowing properly, and may also develop a cough.
