Iodised salt is recommended because it helps prevent iodine deficiency, which can lead to serious health issues such as goiter, intellectual disabilities, and thyroid problems. Iodine is an essential nutrient required for the production of thyroid hormones, which regulate metabolism and overall growth. Since many diets may lack sufficient natural sources of iodine, iodised salt serves as an easy and effective way to ensure adequate intake for the population.

Hence, the amount of iodine present in the food after cooking from iodised salt is negligible and safe.
