Choose iodized salt for brain development, not to prevent goiter

Written by: Dick Hanneman
Many consumers continue in ignorance about the primary reason for consuming iodized salt: fetal and infant brain development. This isn't an aesthetic issue. We see the error all the time. Today, for example, I responded to such a misunderstanding in a blog post where I noted that iodine deficiency for an expectant mother can penalize her child 10-15 IQ points. For more information on iodine deficiency, visit our website.
