Key Points

To estimate iodine content in household salt and examine its relationship with storage practices and awareness among women.
Community-based cross-sectional study conducted in 15 villages in Karnataka, India.
1,200 households sampled using stratified sampling.
Interviews conducted to gather information on salt storage and usage.
Salt samples tested on-site with spot iodine testing kits.
Awareness assessed among 1,478 women of reproductive age.
