♤Thyroid gland makes a hormone , thyroxine .Iodine is necessary for the thyroid gland to make this hormone.
♤ The thyroxoid hormone regulates the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins in the body,so as to provide us the best balance for growth.
♤ Deficiency of iodine in our diet results in a disorder called goitre in which thyroid gland becomes enlarged and thus, neck becomes swollen .
♤ Therefore, use of iodised salt is advisable to prevent the goitre disease.
