Table 3.

Inadequacy of donor human milk iodine concentration (DHMIC) and iodine intake (n = 113).

N (%)
Inadequate DHMIC for preterm infants (<200 µg/L) 79 (69.91)
Inadequate iodine intake from food alone according to
Dold et al. (<167 µg/d) [27] 105 (92.92)
WHO (<250 µg/d) [28] 112 (99.12)
Inadequate total iodine intake a according to
Dold et al. (<167 µg/d) [27] 24 (28.57)
WHO (<250 µg/d) [28] 39 (46.43)

a Sample size regarding total iodine intake (considering information from diet, iodized salt and iodine supplement intake) was n = 84 (missing data for 29 donors as iodine supplement intake and/or type or salt consumed during the dietary record was not reported).
