June 6/Jacksonville, Fla./The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism -- Some vegans may not be getting enough iodine in their diets, suggests a study published online ahead of print on May 25, 2011, in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism.
That finding is particularly relevant for women who are pregnant, researchers say, as that is a time when a mom's iodine levels are strained by her growing baby.
