Nevertheless, at least six randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, intervention trials have assessed the effect of vitamin or micronutrient supplements on AMD risk. The consensus from these and other trials seems to suggest a positive response of the retina as well as improved visual performance from vitamin and mineral supplementation such as the AREDS formulation (see above). Specifically, the AREDS results should be interpreted as understanding that the formulation was effective in slowing the risk of progression of AMD in persons 55 years of age and older who had some macular changes consistent with early age-related maculopathy. More recently, substantiation of these results was reported on a primarily white population as part of the Rotterdam Study. An above-median intake of beta-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, and zinc was associated with a 35% reduced risk of AMD. Still other clinical research has demonstrated shortterm beneficial effects in small populations for lutein and a combination of lutein and antioxidants in AMD.

In a substudy of MoBa, including pregnant women grouped as users or nonusers of vitamin and mineral supplements, median urinary iodine excretion per 24 h was 190p,g and 110p,g, respectively (Brantsaeter et al., 2007). In the same study, dietary iodine intake was calculated by a food-frequency questionnaire and a food diary. The dietary intake of iodine among nonsupplement users was below the recommendations, whereas the dietary iodine intake of supplement users was above the recommendations. This demonstrates that supplements may contribute considerably to the total dietary iodine intake.
