Abstract

The medical community of our country is extremely concerned about the significant deterioration in the state of health, the decline in the intellectual potential of the population and the low birth rate in Russia. Of course, this circumstance cannot but affect the social and spiritual development of society and the state of the demographic situation in the country. As a rule, the deterioration in health is explained by the decline in recent decades, the social level and quality of life of a significant segment of the population of our country. One cannot disagree with this. At the same time, it should be recognized that in the same years in Russia the situation with endemic goiter sharply worsened: almost the entire territory of the country is currently endemic for goiter.
