Iodine Deficiency in UK Cows

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

This may be of interest to some - we probably consumed some of our daily iodine

in cows milk in the past. There probably is not much iodine in cows milk if the

cows are deficient themselves!

This was in last week's Farmer's Weekly about how big a problem this is becoming

in the UK and how iodine deficiency is causing death at birth of the calves

amongst other things.

If anyone is interested, here is the discussion:
