New European recommendations on iodine intake

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has proposed an adequate intake (AI) level of 70-130 µg for infants and children, 150 µg for adults and 200 µg for pregnant and lactating women. An AI is the average observed daily level of intake by a population group (or groups) of apparently healthy people that is assumed to be adequate. This Scientific Opinion is now open for public comment, and stakeholders can give input until February 26, 2014.
