Compensation for iodine deficiency conditions with drugs based on duckweed substrate

Currently, one of the important problems for the entire population of Russia is the problem of iodine deficiency. This pathology is of significant relevance for residents of the North Caucasus. The growth of the goiter epidemic was provoked by the abolition of iodine prophylaxis from salt iodization in the 70s of the 20th century. In order to avoid an increase in morbidity, they began to develop and introduce not only iodine-containing preparations of chemical origin, but also medicines developed from iodine-containing plants acquired particular relevance. Iodine found in plants is well absorbed by the human body, as it is close to it in biological structure. The most common and generally accepted medicinal plants for the treatment of iodine deficiency conditions are white cinquefoil, sugar kelp and bladderwrack. These plants have a high content of natural iodine, but at the same time, the problem is a significant limitation of raw materials. That is why the search for new plant substrates with a high iodine content and the possibility of restoring iodine deficiency states is so important
