Health expert Ekaterina Troshina told the Russians about the factors that negatively affect the health of the thyroid gland.
According to the endocrinologist, first of all, attention should be paid to the addiction to smoking. If you want to extend your years of life, while maintaining health, avoiding autoimmune thyroid diseases, then you should give up cigarettes.
“Smoking provokes the development of endocrine ophthalmopathy and aggravates its course,” the doctor warned.
As a result, a person acquires vision and thyroid problems in 30 percent of cases. In addition, the endocrinologist recommends paying attention to a healthy and full sleep, ensuring the amount of at least eight hours.
As a prevention of thyroid problems, you can take iodine on a daily basis, following the strict recommendations in the instructions. Excessive dosage will not lead to anything good.
“90-100 micrograms for children, 150-200 micrograms for adults, 250 micrograms for pregnant and lactating women. To do this, it is enough for everyone to include iodized salt in the diet, ”added the doctor.
It is better to eat less salt, but choose iodized salt. Writes about it AiF.
