I don't think that's true except possibly for very near the ocean. In the 1990s I read research about the Mongolians being very iodine deficient.

EDIT if you look up the Goiter Belt, it doesn't correlate to mountains. The Great Lakes region was especially bad, for instance.

Iodine is added to salt artificially. In nature it's in seafood and I'm not sure where else.
