– Cabbage juice as soup, cabbage solid as main course.
-What about tonight, mom!
-The one I wrapped in front of your eyes.
– There is no cabbage left in the field, and we don’t have enough.
-I’ll roast tomorrow then.
– Shepherd’s roast or liver’s roast?
– What’s not enough about roasting cabbage, my child!
The head of the committee, which summed up the understanding of democracy with a monstrous understanding such as “From the right to the left so that there would be no injustice” and almost claimed that it was brought down from the sky, cried out:
-Doctor! What is this weed that rises from the Black Sea mountains?
-Endemic goiter!
-Speak Turkish, man!
The retired officer at the head of the health authority swallowed, stretched and realized that he had to return to the social barracks:
– Iodine deficiency, sir.
Hazrat gave the final order right after:
-Put it back then, I don’t want to hear a clear discrete voice anymore!
Doctor who rose to the rank of General with command and command; desperately, he was at his command to his top rank.
In the early 1950s, the World Health Organization defined half of the world as iodine deficient by looking at the map in its hand; He included Turkey, especially the Black Sea, in a risky region with his men looking at oil from space.
goiter, which was declared endemic in three towns in 1948; In 1980, it was announced as 30% in Turkey. And extensions of the committee approach in 1994; He was condemning the salt to iodine and the people of the Black Sea to salt forever…
No one asked; you know the soil analysis, where the plant analysis.
For some reason, turnips, radishes, and most importantly even kale, which bind iodine, were quickly cleared.
The people, who were condemned to cabbage for 12 months a year, were deprived even of anchovy containing sufficient iodine, which they could easily reach in the season, because it was almost free. Data to support endemic reports were quickly being replaced by men in black suits.
Scientific data expressing antitheses were easily stigmatized as couch grass.
The doctor forgot the motto “There is no disease, there is only a patient”, and did not even feel the need to question the diets of patients who did not eat anything other than foods that cause goiter by binding iodine.
Propaganda was so effective that; It was raining salt from all the flower essences, it was not enough, it was raining iodine on the jungle, it was raining Chernobyl.
Because of the shortsighted who dare to instill confidence in the public by sipping rabbit blood washed in the iodinated Chernobyl rains on the screens; The salt epidemic had begun all over the country. Excess iodine; papillary thyroid cancer. He had hyperthyroidism, that is, poisonous goiter. He had hypertension.
Endemic goiter causing benign enlargement of the thyroid gland was no longer present.
Instead, there was a poisonous, malignant or multiple nodular goiter.
There was a fast running iatrogenic goiter, that is, a gifted goiter, which had come out of the giveaway packages.
There were drug giants scratching their palms with delight!
Instead of iodine eclipse, it was mind eclipse!
