Guest guest Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 What they call 15% is NOT 15%. It is actually only 7%. Other than that it's a fine product. Here is an explanation of why that is so, from our member /Israel: > Note that the iodine concentrations posted on www.altcancer.com are > non-standard; they are including the potassium iodide in the percent > calculation. The standard Lugol's solution of 5% means that there is 5% > elemental iodine in the solution and the iodide is not considered. > However, when you calculate the mg/drop of iodine, the iodide is taken > into account. To do this, note that iodide is 0.769 times the total KI > present, the ratio of atomic weights of iodine to potassium. Then, [i + > KI(0.769)]/ml = the concentration of iodine. So when the altcancer folks > talk about 15% Lugol's solution, it is really only about 7% according to > conventional calculations. Their products are good, including the iodine, > but be aware of the inflated percentages. -- moderator On 12 Feb 2012 at 16:06, convictuz wrote: > Just wanted to share this since the pricing seems so incredible.

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Hi : Since this product would be shipped from Ecuador, you would not know the quality plus the good pricing might end up being very high in shipping. Bonnie From: iodine [mailto:iodine ] On Behalf Of convictuz Sent: Sunday, February 12, 2012 11:07 AM iodine Subject: Great source for Lugol's Just wanted to share this since the pricing seems so incredible. They also sell 15% Lugol's and note on the bottom of the page the difference between dropper sizes. Quite interesting. http://www.altcancer.com/products/lugols-iodine size=1 width="100%" noshade color="#aca899" align=center> No virus found in this message.
