Iodine deficiency is a global concern, and in recent years, there has been a significant improvement in the number of countries identified as being iodine-sufficient. This review considers the best strategies to ensure iodine sufficiency among breastfeeding women and their infants.
Fortification strategies to improve iodine intake have been adequate for school-age children (SAC); however, often, iodine deficiency remains for breastfeeding women and their infants. Daily supplementation with iodine is not an ideal strategy to overcome deficiency. Countries defined as iodine-sufficient, but where pregnant and breastfeeding women have inadequate intake, should consider increasing salt iodine concentration, such that the median urinary iodine concentration of SAC can be up to 299 µg/L. This will ensure adequate intake for mothers and infants, without SAC being at risk thyroid dysfunction. Consensus is required for thresholds for iodine adequacy for breastfeeding women and infants.
碘缺乏是一个全球性问题,近年来,被认定为碘充足的国家数量显著增加。本综述考虑了确保哺乳期妇女及其婴儿碘充足的最佳策略。
改善碘摄入量的强化策略对学龄儿童(SAC)是足够的;然而,哺乳期妇女及其婴儿的碘缺乏仍然存在。每天补充碘并不是克服缺乏症的理想策略。被定义为碘充足的国家,但其孕妇和哺乳期妇女碘摄入量不足,应考虑增加盐碘浓度,以使 SAC 的中位数尿碘浓度高达 299μg/L。这将确保母亲和婴儿摄入充足的碘,而不会使 SAC 面临甲状腺功能障碍的风险。需要就哺乳期妇女和婴儿的碘充足阈值达成共识。
