Re: Relentless Improvement iodine

[Guest guest]

Virginia...

I was the one who posted about Relentless Improvement's version of

Iodoral. It is supposed to contain iodine and potassium iodide. I

suspect that it only contains potassium iodide. Their version is

WHITE. Iodoral is iodine color -- orange/yellow. Their version DOES

NOT have a distinctive iodine taste. It just tastes salty. I am not

convinced that there is any iodine in it at all. Also, they do not

have a return policy. In other words, I do not feel that this company

is REPUTABLE. Any other supplement company would refund your money

back if you were not happy with their product. A reputable company

STANDS BY THEIR PRODUCTS. Relentless Improvement obviously does not.

Because of this, I very much doubt that their QA report is even valid.

This tablet has 7.68mg of potassium iodide, whereas Iodoral has 10.<<

Iodoral® labels and online references state that it contains 7.5 mg

of potassium iodide and 5 mg of elemental iodine per tablet, for a

total of 12.5 mg. If the Relentless Improvement Quality Analysis is

correct, their product has nearly identical amounts of potassium

iodide and elemental iodine as Iodoral has. (The 50 mg tablets of

Iodoral contain 30 mg of potassium iodide and 20 mg of elemental

iodine.)

Where are you finding information that Iodoral tablets contain 10 mg

of potassium iodide?

Regarding a different post, I don't think the color of the tablets

has any bearing on what forms of iodine the tablets contain. The

color could be from different kinds of pharmaceutical glazes.

***************************************************************

The entire tablet content is white. A glaze should be surface only.

When scored, the color is white throughout. Also, the tablet has

absolutely no distinctive iodine taste. Iodoral does, I know because

I chewed one for confirmation. Buy the tablets from Relentless

Improvement if you want. I simply don't think the product contains

what the company says it contains.
