Abstract
Iodine content of rice (42) and drinking water (108) from a goitre-endemic belt of Assam, a sub-Himalayan zone of India, was evaluated. Iodine content of staple food (rice) and drinking water was found to be poor. Mean iodine content of rice was found to be 11.8 7.3mug/100g. Lower level of iodine was also observed in drinking water samples (mean of 1.52 0.48 mug/l).
