PLEASE MAKE ME BRAINLIST
The most common cause of goiters worldwide is a lack of iodine in the diet. In the United States, where the use of iodized salt is common, goiters are caused by conditions that change thyroid function or factors that affect thyroid growth.

Iodine is an important mineral found in some food items. Iodine is a mineral that is required by the body for the synthesis of thyroid hormones. Thyroid hormones are required for the maintenance of many metabolic functions of the body. They have a role in increasing the basal metabolic rate, affect protein synthesis and regulate the growth of bones. They also play a major role in neural maturation.
