problem making Lugol's solution

[Guest guest]

I'm experiencing a problem with the Lugol's solution I made myself.

I bought ACS grade potassium iodide and pure elemental iodine crystals

from the ebay seller the_full_orchestra, and made the Lugol's solution

per the instructions from " HerbsPlusBeadWorks " on youtube. But when I

take the solution it gives me terrible heartburn. I put 8 drops in a

gelatin capsule and take it with 16 oz. of water. This is the same way

I've been taking store-bought Lugol's solution for many months without

any problem. I only have the heartburn with the solution I made. Does

anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

Thank you,

Robin
