What is the cure for a developing goiter?

iodine, it's found in salt, well that prevents it that's why you don't see too many Americans with one.

It depends on the cause, a goiter can be a sign of many things, there may be over or underproduction of thyroid hormone or it may not affect thyroid function at all, and without knowing why it's there, it is not possible to effectively treat it.

The Doc gave you a great answer... I would suggest getting to a DR.. and talking to them about what treatment is best! And don't wait... it can be a symptom of something wayyy bigger!

You need more iodine in your diet. Stay away from fast foods, junk foods, etc

This is one of those things you shouldn't mess around with. Go to a Dr. and get the right
information. I haven't heard of goiters in years. Go to the Dr.
