For years, we did not worry about the status of iodine in Norway. The general perception was that most people consumed enough of this important trace element through the diet. Recent studies indicate that this picture does not match reality, and in the spring of 2016, an expert group proposed to implement measures to improve the iodine status of the Norwegian population.
The Centre for Nutrition at UiB therefore invites to the second in the series of Bergen Nutrition Seminar focusing on iodine status in Norway and the research in this area.
Time: Wednesday 18 October at. 10–14.
Venue: Bikuben, Haukeland University Hospital.
Send your registration to Asta Optun.
Deadline for registration: 10 October.
The seminar is free and includes lunch, but there are limited seats.
