Researches carried out at Cîmpulung-Lereşti-Lăicăi from the north of the Argeş County demonstrated an environmental iodine-deficiency that caused thyroid hypofunction in animals and, consequently, a decrease in the iodine level in the products of animal origin. Administration of KI, KIO3 or of sea weeds powder in the cows nutrition corrected the thyroid function, the quantitative increase in milk production and enrichment of milk in iodine.
