Guest guest Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 The patch test is not reliable as a measure of iodine sufficiency or deficiency. There are too many variables. The difference in your skin is probably related to some of the skin being scar tissue. But the absorption rate has no bearing. If you have cancer, you're deficient in iodine. -- moderator On 7 Feb 2012 at 18:28, jeanneb1@... wrote: > Hi All! > Since there was recent discussion on painting basal cell skin areas on > face, scalp and body, I decided to paint my BC area on forehead/scalp > that has already been surgically removed three months ago.
