Iodine is an important component of thyroxine, and a lack of iodine can lead to irritability and dec

To a certain extent, it will. But not accurately.

Iodine is an important component of thyroxine, if there is a lack of iodine, it will lead to problems with the human thyroid gland, leading to decreased function, and its obvious symptoms are easy to sweat, irritability, irritability, etc.

However, if you are an adult, it does not lead to mental retardation. Lack of iodine affects intelligence is generally reflected in the fetus and early childhood, and the lack of iodine may affect fetal development, including physical development, such as dwarfs, deformities, etc., and mental development will lead to mental deficiency and stupidity.

Sankai Medical's urine iodine detector is for urine iodine detection, if you are worried, you can go to the hospital to check urine iodine.

What are the effects of "iodine deficiency"?

Iodine is one of the essential trace elements of the human body, which is mainly involved in the synthesis of thyroxine in the human body, and thyroxine is involved in the metabolism of protein, carbohydrates, fats and energy in the human body, and promotes growth and development. Therefore, when the human body is deficient in iodine, it will have a certain degree of impact on health, mainly in the following aspects:

Affects brain function.

Iodine deficiency can affect growth and development, especially brain development. It causes the brain to lose cognitive ability and cause different degrees of intellectual disability, such as: mental retardation, hearing and language impairment, motor nerve disorder, etc.

Triggers thyroid disease.

Iodine deficiency can lead to a decrease in thyroid hormone secretion and induce thyroid diseases, such as goiter, also known as "big neck disease", which can manifest as dyspnea and swallowing when the symptoms are severe.

In addition, some adults will also have low thyroid function due to iodine deficiency, which is manifested in daily manifestations such as decreased physical fitness, tiredness and fatigue.

Effects on pregnant women.

When pregnant women are deficient in iodine, they are at risk of premature birth, miscarriage, stillbirth or teratogenicity, and may also cause their babies to be born deaf.

Effects on infants and young children.

When infants and young children are deficient in iodine, it will affect the central nervous system and interfere with the normal development of the brain.

The main harm of iodine deficiency is to cause iodine deficiency disease, iodine is the raw material for thyroid hormone synthesis by the thyroid gland, if iodine deficiency, thyroid hormone synthesized and secreted by the thyroid gland will reduce thyroid hormone, the main role is to do sex, metabolic growth and development of thyroid hormone and fetal brain formation and maturation, as well as bone maturity density related.

Iodine deficiency causes iodine deficiency that leads to endemic goiter, cretinism, subclinical cretinism, and isolated deafness. Iodine deficiency diseases such as miscarriage, premature birth, stillbirth, congenital malformations, etc., can be prevented by consuming iodized salt. The iodine contained in iodized salt can meet the daily iodine requirement of the human body, and the consistent use of iodized salt can prevent and treat iodine deficiency diseases.

Why is thyroid hormone high? Is it a problem with the immune system, or is it a problem with the thyroid gland itself?

What will not be raised, but the thyroid gland will enlarge.

Iodine is an important component of thyroid hormone synthesis, and in general, iodine deficiency can affect thyroid hormone synthesis.

When the thyroid secretion is insufficient, from the perspective of feedback regulation, it will first affect the hypothalamus, so that the hypothalamus secretes an increase in the secretion of thyrotropin-releasing hormone, which acts on the pituitary gland and increases the secretion of thyroid-stimulating hormone, and the thyroid-stimulating hormone acts on the thyroid gland to promote the thyroid gland to synthesize and secrete thyroid hormone.

Iodine is the raw material for the synthesis of thyroid hormones in the body, because this small dose of iodine is used to prevent and treat simple goiter caused by iodine deficiency. High-dose iodine produces antithyroid effects by the following mechanisms:

1) High-dose iodine inhibits thyroglobulin hydrolase and prevents thyroid hormones from dissociating and releasing thyroglobulins into the blood;

2) High-dose iodine inhibits the release of thyroid-stimulating hormone through negative lead feedback, resulting in a decrease in blood vessels in the thyroid gland, cell degeneration, a decrease in the release of thyroid hormone, and a smaller and stiffer gland, so it has antithyroid effect.

The antithyroid effect of high-dose iodine is mainly used for thyroid storm and preoperative preparation for patients with hyperthyroidism.

Iodine is an important "**" for thyroid disease, how to ensure iodine intake in daily life? Iodine is an essential micronutrient for human metabolism and growth and development, and is the main raw material for the synthesis of thyroid hormones by the human body. Thyroid hormones are involved in the body's metabolism, maintain the normal function of all organs, and promote the growth and development of the human body, especially the brain.

Iodine deficiency disorders are caused by iodine deficiency in the natural environment and bring great harm. For example, fetal iodine deficiency will affect brain development, cause mental retardation, and form permanent developmental disabilities; Iodine deficiency in pregnant women can lead to increased rates of miscarriage or stillbirth. Therefore, people must prevent iodine deficiency diseases as soon as possible, and some methods to prevent iodine deficiency diseases are introduced below, which are for reference only.

<> long-term use of iodized salt can prevent iodine deficiency. Iodine is available in almost every household, is cheap and easy to use. If you take iodized salt every day for a long time, you can replenish the iodine needed by the body.

However, it is not advisable to consume iodized salt in large quantities, so as not to have the opposite effect and be harmful to the body. In addition to eating iodized salt to prevent iodine deficiency disease, you can also adjust your daily diet. Eating more iodine-containing foods can also supplement iodine, such as seaweed, kelp, shellfish and other seafood.

People must supplement iodine according to the law of iodine in food, because the iodine content in organic matter is high, and you can eat more appropriately.

In some special geographical locations, the phenomenon of face deficiency is more serious, and iodine must be supplemented with the consent of relevant departments. In the case of extreme iodine deficiency, the body must be supplemented with iodized oil in time to achieve the effect of iodine supplementation. Through the above introduction, we have a certain understanding of iodine supplementation.

Iodine deficiency brings great harm, and iodine supplementation should be done as soon as possible, especially for newborns and children. Although iodized salt is high in iodine, children should not be blindly given iodine supplementation, as excessive iodine will cause great harm to the body. In order to prevent iodine deficiency diseases, iodine supplementation methods should be scientifically mastered.

The above is a detailed interpretation of the problem, I hope it will help you, if you have any questions, you can leave me a message in the comment area, you can comment with me more, if there is something wrong, you can also interact with me more, if you like the author, you can also follow me, your like is the biggest help to me, thank you.

Iodine is something that humans metabolize and develop physically.

Yes. Iodine is an essential trace element for the human body, an indispensable raw material for the synthesis of thyroid hormones, and plays an important role in maintaining the body's health.

The thyroid gland and iodine are like a pair of good friends in the human body, and no one can do without the other. Without iodine, thyroxine cannot be synthesized and the thyroid gland loses its function. Without the thyroid gland, iodine cannot be metabolized properly in the body and becomes a waste product.

Therefore, there is a very strong link between thyroid health and iodine.

In the general impression, the thyroid gland is very afraid of iodine deficiency. The "Great Neck Disease" caused by iodine deficiency is proof of the relationship between iodine and the thyroid gland. This induces the illusion that thyroid disease is mostly caused by iodine deficiency and that iodine supplementation always brings benefits to the thyroid gland as well.

In particular, most thyroid diseases will have symptoms of goiter, and it is easier for people to confuse various types of goiter with "big neck disease", and as long as they find that the thyroid gland has nodules, they will eat iodine-containing food.
