Research progress on the food safety of iodine in seaweeds
Iodine is essential for the synthesis of thyroid hormones in humans,it plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of diseases caused by endemic iodine deficiency disorders and hereditary thyroid dysfunction,eta..Excessive or deficient iodine intake both have negative effects on human health.Seaweed,as a quality food source rich in iodine,is an ideal natural iodine supplement.With the increasing incidence of thyroid disease,it has led to a rejection of seaweed products with high iodine content,such as Laminaria japonica.A large number of studies show that there is no direct data to suggest that excessive consumption of seaweeds can have adverse effects our body despite the high iodine conten.Therefore,the paper summarized the research progress on morphological distribution of iodine from seaweed,safety evaluation of different forms of iodine,changes of speciation before and after processing,as well as bioavailability of iodine in edible seaweeds.This study provides ideas for evaluating the edible safety of iodine in seaweeds,and also provides scientific evidence for the healthy development of seaweed industry.
