“…If iodine intake in the diet is low, goitrogenic and other factors can affect iodine utilization resulting in its insufficiency. Goitrogens can reduce iodine utilization by thyroid gland or influence its metabolism (Pennigton, 1988;McDowell, 1992). Abandonment of udder disinfection with iodine containing preparations as well as large scale breeding of farm animals with increased loading of animals are other important factors (Hennig, 1992).…”

ABSTRACT:The effect of a single oral dose of iodinated fa�y acid esters (IFAE) on iodine levels in colostrum and milk of goats was tested. In experimental goats that received a single oral dose of IFAE before delivery, significantly higher iodine levels in milk were recorded 60 days a�er the delivery. In the following period since day 75 a�er the delivery iodine levels decreased, however, remained higher compared to the control, e.g. on day 152 the levels were twice as high as in the controls. Based on these results, the effect of a single oral and parenteral application of IFAE was tested on dairy cows. The results of the experiment showed that a single oral application of IFAE increases milk iodine levels for a shorter period. Intramuscular application resulted in a significantly higher milk iodine levels during the whole experimental period compared to both untreated controls and cows with oral application of IFAE.

“…As is the case for humans, in farm animals severe ID causes a subnormal synthesis of thyroid hormone, which in turn causes reproductive failures such as a high incidence of miscarriage, stillbirths and weak calves [64], irregular heat cycling, low conception rates, retained placentas, decreased libido and semen quality in males [65]. In cattle, ID also causes a higher incidence of physically weak calves [66].…”

Objectives: Iodine is an essential nutrient needed for the synthesis of hormone thyroxin. Hormone thyroxin is involved in the metabolism of several nutrients, the regulation of enzymes and differentiation of cells, tissues and organs. Iodine deficiency (ID) impairs the development of the brain and nervous system. It affects cognitive capacity, educability, productivity and child mortality. ID hinders physical strength and causes reproductive failure. The objective of this paper is to explore if the health impacts of ID are more common and severe among women. Design: Using primary data (notes from a visit) and secondary data, this paper examines if the effects of ID are more common and severe among Oromo women in Ethiopia. Findings: The health impacts of ID are more common and severe among women. Conclusions: ID is an easily preventable nutritional problem. In Oromia, the persistence of ID is explained by the Ethiopian government's colonial social policies. Preventing ID should be seen as part of the efforts we make to enhance capacity building, promote health, gender equity and social justice. Implications: Iodine deficiency has a wide range of biological, social, economic and cultural impacts. Preventing ID can be instrumental in bringing about gender equity and building the capacity of people.

“…The most studied factors relating to iodine bioavailability are the goitrogens, but these only have a significant impact on IDD (Iodine deficiency disorders) when the usual dietary intake of iodine is low. Goitrogens can reduce the levels of iodine uptake by the thyroid, or impair its metabolism [41,42]. Thioglucosides are the most common goitrogens, as found in brassica vegetables, such as cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, and turnip.…”

“…Thioglucosides are the most common goitrogens, as found in brassica vegetables, such as cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, and turnip. On hydrolysis, thioglucosides yield thiocyanates and isothiocyanates [41] which inhibit the selective concentration of iodine by the thyroid [42].…”

Obesity has become a leading global health problem owing to its strong association with a high incidence of diseases. Obesity is results from the complex interaction of environmental factors that act on a genetic background and led to excess accumulated of body fat. Treatment of obesity includes determination of the degree of obesity, management weight loss programme and maintenance of body weight. To investigate effect 6 months safe weight loss program on anthropometric measurements and biological and metabolic profiles in obese patients. 35 obese patients were enrolled in the present study: 20 female, 15 male. Participants underwent a comprehensive series of biochemical, anthropometrical, physical, and nutritional prior to treatment-at baseline and after the six-month of the obesity treatment program. 6 months weight loss program. Diet plan intervention in small groups. In-person training and individual diet plan intervention. There is significant reduction in weight and high improvement in laboratory parameters. Our data showed that there an improvement in weight loss. These finding may be important for controlling obesity-related co-morbidities. It would appear that moderate weight loss of 8-10 % observed in our study resulted in significant improvements in laboratory parameters
