Journal Title: Міжнародний ендокринологічний журнал - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 61
Abstract
The article organizes data on the role of iodine and selenium deficiency in the functioning of the thyroid gland (TG), its importance in the development of thyropathies. Markers needed to determine the provision of the organism with iodine and selenium are given, as well as deficiency conditions associated with these trace elements, and their physiological daily doses are recommended. It was concluded that the use of selenium compounds (average dose 75 μg/day) and iodine (average dose 150 μg/day) with the purpose of prevention or treatment in physiological doses is safe, can reduce the severity or inhibit pathological processes in TG, including improving the course of autoimmune diseases.
