Before the importance of iodine in the body was known, specifically the role it plays in the formation of thyroid hormones, people used to suffer from a disease called goiter, which consisted of an increase in the size of the thyroid gland and made the neck look prominent.

This is related to the subject of the publication. Thank you for sharing this post.
