ELIMINATION OF IODINE DEFFICIENCY IN LATVIA
• To meet iodine requirements, the current recommmended daily iodine intakes necessary:– 50 g for infants (first 12 months of age)– 90 g for children (2-6 years of age)– 120 g for school children (7-12 years age)– 150 g for adults (beyond 12 years of age)– 200 g for pregnant and lacting women
Recommended iodine levels in salt and guidelines for monitoring their adequacy and effectiveness, WHO, 1996
![Page 32: ELIMINATION OF IODINE DEFICIENCY IN LATVIA Dr.Med. Guntars Selga, Latvian Food Center](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050909/56649e725503460f94b71cf6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Required iodine levels in salt
• In order to provide 150 g/day of iodine via iodized salt, iodine concentration in salt at the point of production should be in the range 20-40 mg of iodine per kg of salt.
• When all salt used in processed food is iodized, the lower limit (20 mg) is recommended.
• Under these circumstances median urinary iodine levels will vary from 100-200 g/l. “Recommended iodine levels in salt and guidelines for monitoring their adequacy and effectiveness”, WHO, 1996
