Urine iodine has been measured in the U.S. population by the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
(NHANES) since 1971. A downward trend was noted between NHANES I (320 ± 6 µg/L in 1971-1974)
and NHANES III (145 ± 3 µg/L in 1988-1994). This report presents data from NHANES 2001-2002 that indicates
that the U.S. median urine iodine (UI) level has stabilized since the initial drop between NHANES I and
NHANES III. The median UI concentration in the U.S. population in NHANES 2001-2002 was found to be 167.8
µg/L (95% confidence interval [CI] 159.3-177.6). The NHANES 2001-2002 data confirm the current stability of
the U.S. iodine intake and continued adequate iodine nutrition for the country.
