25 February, 2015, India, USA NEWS CORP

Francuois Müller*, Abongwe Ketelo, Lilburne Cyster and Lincoln Raitt receive Stanford Research Award-2015 in Nutrition. Their research findings were published on world's prestigious most read journal: Journal for Nutrition. Approximately 30 % of the worlds population suffer from illnesses related to iodine deficiency as a result of inadequate dietary iodine intake. This study evaluates the uptake of iodine by Swiss Chard and the subsequent contribution these biofortified crops have to the daily recommended intake of iodine. As the concentrations of iodine supplied to the crops increased, so did the uptake thereof by the plants. This increased iodine uptake however, resulted in decreased yields, but resulted in an increase in contribution to the daily recommended iodine intake by humans. Pregnant and lactating females will however benefit the least from these plants as they contributed less than 10 percent to the DRI of iodine required by these individuals.
