Part -B
Facts about Iodine & Iodized Salt
![Page 14: National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Programme](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56812ef8550346895d9498f4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
What is Iodine?
Iodine is an essential micronutrient supporting some of the most vital functions of the human body.
![Page 15: National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Programme](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56812ef8550346895d9498f4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What is Iodated Salt?
• Iodated salt is common salt containing minute quantities of an iodine compound
• Iodated salt looks, tastes and smells exactly like ordinary salt.
• The Govt. of India has issued notification banning the salt of non iodized salt for direct human consumption with effect from 17th May, 2006.
![Page 16: National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Programme](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56812ef8550346895d9498f4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
How much Iodine does a person normally need?
The average daily adult requirement is 150 micrograms
Average lifetime’s requirement of an individual less than a teaspoonful.
![Page 17: National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Programme](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56812ef8550346895d9498f4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
From where do we normally get Iodine?
• Present in its natural state in the soil and in water.
• Normal requirement comes from crops grown on iodine-rich soil.
• When the soil lacks iodine, crops grown on that soil are deficient in this essential micronutrient.
• People who live on iodine-deficient land and eat its crops regularly, do not get their daily requirement of this essential element.
![Page 18: National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Programme](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56812ef8550346895d9498f4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
How do we know if salt contains Iodine?
A low cost testing kit is available which allows to test for the iodine content of the salt on the spot.

Iodine consumption
NFHS III :• Adequate iodine in salt: 55% households• Inadequate iodine in salt: 24% households• No iodine in salt: 21% households
SSM Oct 2008:• Salt tested for iodine content was found satisfactory in 97% samples (n=29,539)

a. Mass awareness about Iodine Deficiency disorders among community have been generated using print, folk and electronic media , through NGOs and public awareness campaigns.
b. The State Nodal officer for NIDDCP, Dr. Subhash Pandey has been regularly attending discussions on Doordarshan on the importance of iodine and related disorders.
![Page 24: National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Programme](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56812ef8550346895d9498f4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
c. Mass Public awareness to use Iodized salt through demonstration by salt testing kits was telecast in the months of Oct’ 08 & Oct’ 09 four times in Kalyani Programme of Doordarshan.
d. The 21st of October is celebrated as “Global Iodine Deficiency Disorder (IDD) Prevention Day ” every year and marked by educational workshops, seminars and attended by several line departments like (DWCD, Food and Civil Supplies, P&RD)
Status of NIDDCP in Chhattisgarh State

Special Campaign in the Month of October since 2006- SSM
• During the October round of SSM every year, Salt Testing Kits are used testing salt for its iodine content at the vaccination session sites and alsoduring House hold surveys.
• Visits are made by the LHV or ANM to the households of few pregnant women and there cooking salt is tested for its iodine content.
• 10,000 such salt testing kits are distributed to all sub centers, PHCs, CHCs and Urban areas.
