“…Early ecological studies suggested that high iodine intake is associated with an increased risk of papillary carcinoma, while iodine deficiency is associated with a higher risk of follicular carcinoma; however, these results have not been consistently replicated in recent case‐control studies . Historically, most observational studies have used fish and shellfish intake as proxies for dietary iodine exposure, but dairy products and cooked turkey breast have also been found to contain higher levels of iodine in the U.S . In this study, intakes of canned tuna and chicken/turkey were positively associated with risk of thyroid cancer, but intake of dairy was not.…”

Although thyroid cancer is suspected to have a nutritional etiology, prospective studies examining the relationship between diet and thyroid cancer are lacking. During 1996–1997, NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study participants, ages 51–72 years, completed a 37-item food frequency questionnaire about diet at ages 12–13 years (adolescence) and 10 years before baseline (mid-life). Over a median 10 years of follow-up, 325 individuals (143 men and 182 women) were diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for intakes of foods and food groups comparing the highest to the lowest quartiles. Adolescent intakes of chicken/turkey (HR=1.59, 95% CI: 0.97–2.60; Ptrend<0.01) and sweet baked goods (HR=1.59, 95% CI: 1.09–2.34; Ptrend =0.04) were positively associated with thyroid cancer risk, while intake of butter/margarine was inversely associated with risk (HR=0.64, 95% CI: 0.44–0.91; Ptrend<0.02). Similar to adolescent diet, mid-life intake of sweet baked goods was non-significantly associated with an increased risk of thyroid cancer (HR=1.39, 95% CI: 0.96–2.00; Ptrend =0.11), but intake of butter/margarine was inversely associated with risk (HR=0.66, 95% CI: 0.46–0.95; Ptrend=0.03). Among men, higher adolescent consumption of canned tuna was positively associated with risk of thyroid cancer (HR=1.69, 95% CI: 1.01–2.83; Ptrend=0.03), and greater mid-life intake of broccoli was associated with a twofold increased risk (HR=2.13, 95% CI: 1.13–3.99; Ptrend <0.01). This large prospective study suggests that several components of the adolescent and mid-life diet, including iodine-rich foods and goitrogens, may influence thyroid cancer risk.

“…In iodine-deficient individuals, particularly children, thyroidal radioactive iodine uptake Iodine is naturally low in most foods and beverages. Generally, common food sources provide 3-80 mg/serving (3,4), but the content largely depends on the foodÕs origin and is usually insufficient to meet daily requirements.…”

The objective of the Biomarkers of Nutrition for Development (BOND) project is to provide state-of-the-art information and service with regard to selection, use, and interpretation of biomarkers of nutrient exposure, status, function, and effect. Specifically, the BOND project seeks to develop consensus on accurate assessment methodologies that are applicable to researchers (laboratory/clinical/surveillance), clinicians, programmers, and policy makers (data consumers). The BOND project is also intended to develop targeted research agendas to support the discovery and development of biomarkers through improved understanding of nutrient biology within relevant biologic systems. In phase I of the BOND project, 6 nutrients (iodine, vitamin A, iron, zinc, folate, and vitamin B-12) were selected for their high public health importance because they typify the challenges faced by users in the selection, use, and interpretation of biomarkers. For each nutrient, an expert panel was constituted and charged with the development of a comprehensive review covering the respective nutrient's biology, existing biomarkers, and specific issues of use with particular reference to the needs of the individual user groups. In addition to the publication of these reviews, materials from each will be extracted to support the BOND interactive Web site (http://www.nichd.nih.gov/global_nutrition/programs/bond/pages/index.aspx). This review represents the first in the series of reviews and covers all relevant aspects of iodine biology and biomarkers. The article is organized to provide the reader with a full appreciation of iodine's background history as a public health issue, its biology, and an overview of available biomarkers and specific considerations for the use and interpretation of iodine biomarkers across a range of clinical and population-based uses. The review also includes a detailed research agenda to address priority gaps in our understanding of iodine biology and assessment.

“…Fruits and vegetables provide iodine, but the amounts can be highly variable depending on the iodine content of the soil, the type of fertilizer used, and irrigation practices (1). Variation in the iodine content of animal fodder, including supplemental salts, also influences the iodine content of meat and dairy products available to humans (46).…”

“…Seaweed is one of the richest iodine food sources, but it is highly variable in its concentration (45); other good sources include marine fish and other seafoods, dairy products such as milk, and eggs (46). Fruits and vegetables provide iodine, but the amounts can be highly variable depending on the iodine content of the soil, the type of fertilizer used, and irrigation practices (1).…”

Summary of an NIH Workshop to Identify Research Needs to Improve the Monitoring of Iodine Status in the United States and to Inform the DRI

The Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) at the NIH sponsored a workshop on May 12-13, 2011, to bring together representatives from various NIH institutes and centers as a first step in developing an NIH iodine research initiative. The workshop also provided an opportunity to identify research needs that would inform the dietary reference intakes for iodine, which were last revised in 2001. Iodine is required throughout the life cycle, but pregnant women and infants are the populations most at risk of deficiency, because iodine is required for normal brain development and growth. The CDC monitors iodine status of the population on a regular basis, but the status of the most vulnerable populations remains uncertain. The NIH funds very little investigator-initiated research relevant to iodine and human nutrition, but the ODS has worked for several years with a number of other U.S. government agencies to develop many of the resources needed to conduct iodine research of high quality (e.g., validated analytical methods and reference materials for multiple types of samples). Iodine experts, scientists from several U.S. government agencies, and NIH representatives met for 2 d to identify iodine research needs appropriate to the NIH mission.
