Michael likely developed a goiter due to iodine deficiency. Goiter is a condition characterized by an enlarged thyroid gland, often caused by insufficient iodine intake, which is necessary for proper thyroid hormone production. Lack of iodine in the diet can lead to thyroid gland enlargement as it tries to compensate for the deficiency by working harder to produce thyroid hormones.
