title: [Dietary iodine provision of the population in the Krasnoyarsk Territory].
abstract: The paper analyzes the time course of changes in the intake of staple foods in the Krasnoyarsk Territory in 1998-2005. It is shown that the ingestion of iodine-rich foods has not increased greatly and it is low and does not provide the population with this essential micronutrient. The actual content of iodine in the study samples of food and its raw material is several times less than the tabulated values. The contribution of the staple foods to the provision of the Krasnoyarsk Territory's population with iodine is assessed. The total level of dietary iodine deficiency is estimated. Iodine-fortified salt and foods should be widely used under special conditions providing the transportation and storage of biologically value foods, during which there are inevitable losses of the trace element occur.
