Iodide excretion in a salt-restriction trial.

F O Simpson, B I Thaler, J M Paulin

    The New Zealand Medical Journal
    |December 26, 1984
    PubMed
    Summary

    Salt restriction in an iodine-sufficient area reduced urinary iodide excretion but remained adequate. Continued iodisation of household salt is recommended, with monitoring of other iodine sources.

    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Nutritional Science
    • Public Health

    Background:

    • Iodine-deficiency goitre was historically prevalent in the study area.
    • Most household salt is iodised, and a salt-restriction study was ongoing.
    • The study population's iodine intake was assessed in relation to salt consumption.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate 24-hour urinary iodide excretion in individuals undergoing salt restriction.
    • To determine the impact of salt restriction on iodine status in an iodine-sufficient population.
    • To assess the necessity of salt iodisation for preventing iodine deficiency in the region.

    Main Methods:

    • Measured 24-hour urinary iodide and sodium excretion twice in 133 participants over a 12-month period.
    • Compared iodide excretion between a salt-restricted group and a control group after eight months.
    • Analyzed the correlation between urinary iodide and sodium excretion.

    Main Results:

    • Iodide excretion correlated with sodium excretion in the entire group.
    • Salt-restricted individuals showed significantly lower (p<0.01) 24-hour iodide excretion than controls.
    • Mean iodide excretion in the salt-restricted group (1.1-1.3 mumol) met recommended dietary allowances (1.2 mumol).

    Conclusions:

    • While salt restriction lowered iodide excretion, it remained adequate in this population due to other iodine sources.
    • Continued iodisation of household salt is advised, but may not be solely necessary for preventing iodine deficiency.
    • Ongoing monitoring of iodine intake from non-salt sources is crucial due to potential variability.
