This thyroid gland produces a - se

Any enlargement of the thyroid

more prevalent in certain districts,
such as the basin of the Great Lakes,
which are designated as goitre belts.
This type of goitre is known as sim

We now know that the condition is
due to the absence of the thyroid

In the absence of iodine, the thy

it gives rise to pressure symptoms.
