Three Romanian deputies have proposed a legislative project to regulate salt consumption, citing long-term thyroid health risks associated with mandatory iodization. The initiative argues that the government did not consider the potential adverse effects of excessive iodine intake when implementing iodization policies. The project aims to allow both iodized and non-iodized salt in the market, making iodized salt optional for most uses, while still mandatory for bread production. The proposal has received unfavorable opinions from various councils, highlighting the need for a balanced approach to public health and consumer choice.
