Question

Read the following statements and write your answer as true or false.

Lack of iodine causes anaemia.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

1. Lack of iodine: Low thyroid function is caused by more than just a lack of iodine. However, a shortage of iodine can lead to a goiter, or abnormal enlargement of the thyroid gland, as well as other thyroid issues.
2. Anaemia: Low iron levels in the body are the most common cause of anaemia. Iron-deficiency anaemia is the name for this form of anaemia. Hemoglobin, the molecule that transports oxygen throughout your body, requires a particular amount of iron.

Final answer: The given statement is false.
