A multivariate logistic regression analysis model (that included the dietary covariates having a relationship that was significant or at the limits of significance at univariate analysis, i.e., ICS and regular cows’ milk consumption) revealed that only ICS was an independent predictor of adequate iodine status with an odds ratio (OR) of 3.4 (95% CI: 1.0–10.9) ( p = 0.04).
Furthermore, although the difference between the groups did not reach statistical significance, the IL-6 plasma levels showed a trend reduction over time after the FS was administered (pre–post treatment 8.0 ± 1.73 pg/mL vs. 4.8 ± 1.20 pg/mL) but not after the placebo was administered (pre–post 5.6 ± 0.94 pg/mL vs. 5.01 ± 1.07 pg/mL).
