According to my endocrinologist, about 15% of women in most western countries are Iodine deficient, and about 10% of men. The difference is mostly because women tend to dislike seafood.
In Australia the situation is a lot worse, she said, because our soils are so depleted. No just of Iodine but many other nutrients.

Wait, women dislike seafood more than men? That's the first time I'm hearing this. In landlocked Europe I'd be guessing the opposite. Is there some biological explanation?
