Goiter- cause, cure and reason it appeared
because it causes goiter
Goiter is cause by a lack of Iodine in the body. It causes the thyroid to become enlarged.
Goiter is an enlargement of the thyroid gland, located in the neck. Simple goiter is caused by too little iodine which is available in the hormone thyroxine. Toxic goiter, on the other hand, is caused by exactly the opposite condition, overproduction of thyroxine. Oddly enough, both can often be treated by the administration of iodine in one form or another.
Hyperthyroidism.

A deficiency that causes the thyroid gland to swell is iodine deficiency. This is also believed to be the main cause of goiter.
