National iodized salt monitoring data from 2013 indicate that in almost all provinces, with very few exceptions, coverage of adequately iodized salt has reached more than 90 per cent of households. Until 2012, adequately iodized salt in China was defined as that in which the level of iodine was in the 20–50 parts per million (ppm) range. In 2012, China adopted a revised national standard, with adequately iodized salt now defined as salt with iodine content of 20, 25 or 30 ppm.
