The Japanese government was accused of responding too slowly‚ and for not administering iodide prophylaxis to the exposed population. Iodine-131 is readily taken up by the thyroid gland‚ and the radioactivity can destroy the gland. However‚ this uptake of radioactive iodine

Hyperthyroidism in humans is mainly caused by Graves’ disease (caused by an antibody-mediated auto-immune reaction)‚ toxic multinodular goitre (where there is excess production of thyroid hormones)‚ and toxic thyroid adenoma. Excess thyroid hormones from drugs/pills also have the potential to cause hyperthyroidism. Hypothyroidism is a disease caused by inadequate production of

Salt and potassium are combined to produce iodised salt‚ used when iodine is lacking in diet. It’s absence cause goitre‚ the swelling of the thyroid gland. Livestock as well as humans need salt‚ and this provided in the form of solid blocks‚ known as ’salt-licks’. Salt is also crucial to the food industry. It is used in meat packing sausage-making and fish-curing
