Going to rest on the sea, the inhabitants of megacities fall on Wednesday, where the air is saturated with iodine, this can provoke a real "iodine strike", the doctor-rehabilitationologist Valentin Kovtun. The specialist claims that a sharp change in the situation, which causes the organism of citizens, who is accustomed to a completely different quality of air, to adapt to the conditions of the sea resort - is a great stress for the thyroid gland.

"Shchitovidka, which is forced to rebuild from work in conditions of iodine deficiency to conditions of excess iodine, can react with increased turnover of work, which is fraught with thyrotoxicosis.

Or vice versa - the thyroid gland slows down its work, which leads to lethargy, puffiness, weight gain, "the doctor said..
