Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Is it advisable to gargle with Lugol's to control the "Strep throat" or throat infection? In that case howmany drops of Lugol's in a glass of water? Should the water be warm? Generally luke warm saline gargling is advised. I tried the "Search Mail" but didn't get the result.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 > Baking soda works great to clear out all sorts of viral infections, whether they are in the sinus cavities, or in the throat. It is far superior to ordinary salt. Gargling with dilute hydrogen peroxide or iodine would probably work as well, but you would turn your tongue yellow in the latter case. Also, you would need to make sure you didn't swallow either of these. This is not a problem with baking soda. > Is it advisable to gargle with Lugol's to control the " Strep throat " or throat infection? In that case howmany drops of Lugol's in a glass of water?

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Hi Barb, I sniffed some sodium bicarbonate up my nose after having a running nose all day long. After about 10 minutes, ALL of the mucus was completely gone. Sorry this post isn't exactly about iodine, moderator. I'll stick to your rules in the future, except when I see that someone needs help and I am able to offer it. Hurray for iodine! > > > Baking soda works great to clear out all sorts of viral infections, > whether they are in the sinus cavities, or in the throat > > ...do you gargle with it or drink it with some water.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 My ND told me to have my son gargle with Echinacea (we used A. Vogel brand Echinacea (aka BioForce) ) . We put 20 dops in about 2 oz of water to gargle and swallow. His fever of 102 was down in 4 hours and he didn't have a sore throat anymore. He has been healthy since. My ND said that Echinacea kills strep. Re: Gargle with Lugol's Is it advisable to gargle with Lugol's to control the "Strep throat" or throat infection?

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 I suppose Echinesea is not iodine. Or is it? We don't get Echinesia here in India. In any case I don't know what is it called in my language--in case it is locally available. But my basic question is on gargling with Lugol's. After all we drink Lugol's (two drops in a glass of water), so what is the harm in gargling? The strep throat should clear up with it?----------------- Ratan Singh, Phone: 91 141 2652561, mail: ratanpsych@...- Certificate in Food & Nutrition; Diploma in Nutrition and Health Education.- Author of "Nutrition & Supplements in Major Mental Illnesses";- M.A. (Psychol), Postgraduate Diploma in Medical & Social Psychology, Ph.D.;- Certified Behavior Therapist (from late Prof. J.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Why can't we swallow diluted solution of Lugol's drop? After all we drink the whole glass of water containing two drops of Lugol's. This way we can gargle and also swallow the Lugol's.------------------------ Ratan Singh, Phone: 91 141 2652561, mail: ratanpsych@...- Certificate in Food & Nutrition; Diploma in Nutrition and Health Education.- Author of "Nutrition & Supplements in Major Mental Illnesses";- M.A. (Psychol), Postgraduate Diploma in Medical & Social Psychology, Ph.D.;- Certified Behavior Therapist (from late Prof. J.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 I don't know about what he said either, I do 8 drops of lugols in only about 1/4 cup of water,juice or whatever I put it in that day. And I swallow it right down no problems, so Im sure if you wanted to gargle it it would be fine. I think for sore throats though the warm salt water gargle has always worked well.
