FALSE.....

IODINE IS REQUIRED FOR THE PROPER WORKING OF THYROID

Answer 2

Answer:  

True. Iron is required for the proper functioning of Thyroid Gland.  

Explanation:  

Iron and Iodine are two elements that are crucial for the normal functioning of the Thyroid Gland. In cases of iron deficiency in the body, thyroid-related disorders arise like hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism.

In hypothyroidism, the hormone secretion of TSH is lowered that in turn reduces the production of RBCs and results in anemia. In hyperthyroidism, Ferritin production increases that reduces iron metabolism.
