Best Answer

Thyroid conditions do tend to be hereditary. However, one of the most common causes of thyroid problems is having a lack of iodine in your daily diet. Including iodinized salt in your daily diet is important because it can help prevent thyroid conditions such as a goiter. A goiter is inflammation of the thyroid gland, also known as the thyroid gland becoming enlarged. Worldwide, the most common cause of a goiter is due to a lack of iodine in our daily diet.
