                                According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 680 million people worldwide remain at risk of iodine deficiency, a mineral vital for producing thyroid hormones. Your body does not produce iodine, so it must be obtained through diet or supplements. Understanding the recommended daily intake is key to supporting thyroid health, growth, and development.
