Iodine insufficiency can be associated with "sub-clinical" thyroid deficiency, weight gain, loss of energy, goitre and impaired mental function. Iodine is also concentrated in breast tissue where it elicits anti-proliferative effects and protection against fibrocystic breast disease and cancer. Iodine and organic iodine compounds are also concentrated and secreted by the gastric mucosa, salivary glands and the cervix. This test is indicated for fatigue, immune response, thyroid function and oestrogen metabolism.
The test requires a urine specimen, preferably first morning void (FMV), for determination of baseline halide levels. Iodine is measured in the urine and the results for each element are reported as µg/gm creatinine and µg/24 hours.
