Guest guest Posted March 28, 2002 Report Share Posted March 28, 2002 I'm not familiar with the product, but if it just contains the mineral Iodine, you should know by the way you react if you eat a fairly large amount of seafood from the ocean; if you have no reactions, you probably aren't. But if you want to be sure, then why whouldn't a skin patch test (like dermatologists use) using a round " spot' band-aid saturated with a couple or three drops of the solution on the little mini " pad " area placed on a sensitive area like the hairless side of your forearm for 24 hrs. or so tell you if you have an allergy? Steve -------------------------------------------------------------- List, does anyone know how to tell if one is allergic to Lugol's Iodine Solution?? recommends its use in certain situations. But internal use can be dangerous if allergic. Thanks. pj __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 30, 2002 Report Share Posted March 30, 2002 Miss and others, Good that you are going very cautiously before just taking anything. What goes into our bodies should be of concern to us. Lugol's is truly a lifesaver; even I really do not believe I would be here if it was not for my taking it for bacteria many times and always the Dr. recommended way. Administer lugols in this way & dose when a person doesn't know if they are allergic: Fill a glass of water (#1) and put one drop of lugols into it (do not drink). Fill the second glass with water (#2) and add one teaspoon of the water from glass #1 to glass #2. Drink the water now in glass #2. Later (a few hours) if you feel okay; then also (and then only if you feel okay) drink the #1glass of water. If you are still fine, then proceed as usual. I know some here would say, Well, what if you don't feel okay? Then what? If you did feel slightly sick from the drinking of the water as set out above then you would not go on to drink the #1glass of water, nor would you take iodine or lugols again, at least until it would be proven to you that you are not allergic. I hope this is clear and understandable. Thank you for all of your writings, I do appreciate reading them.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 I just called these people and they advised I need a " license " , I replied I have a business license and a resale license, but not a chemist or doctor license. They're forwarding a credit application and we'll see what happens! Thx, Lugol's > You would do better to just order the raw materials from VWR Canlab > 1(800)932-5000. > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 i use it,oraly and as a topical solution. make sure it is usp grade, not the one for fish tanks, just make sure you are not allergic to iodine. roger houyhnhnm10 <howland@...> wrote: Hi everyone, I recently responded to a post on the vegan macrobiotics group to questions about a veggie wash. I suggested the poster try Lugol's. I then received a shocking reply from another member of the group cautioning me about using Lugol's because it was known to cause thyroid problems. He said " I used a very small amount on my skin and then had a medical test for iodine levels and it was off the scale high - thousands of times the upper range limit. then after a few months it was back down " I said that Dr. recommended it in her books. He said " I know - years ago I took it internally like she recommended and nearly burnt a hole in my stomach! " I said that Dr. " states that Lugol's stimulates the thyroid to make more thyroxine. " I asked if that was his concern? He said " no - not at all. It is the chemical bonding of it - it has one bond which is something toxic " but he did not elaborate. Can anyone advise me on this post? Thanks, Lori --------------------------------- Messenger with Voice. Make PC-to-Phone Calls to the US (and 30+ countries) for 2¢/min or less.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 As far as I am concerned, I have been taking Lugol's once a week (5 drops in a glass of water) for years now... and had no negative effects... Dr. writes that it is good for hypothryroidism and relaxing... and it seems to help me...

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 Hi list, For those who are talking about taking Lugol's liquid iodine I suggest to start just just one/two drops a day for a few days and watch your blood pressure. If you do not need iodine your blood pressure might shoot up. If OK increase by two drops every two days never to exceed label amounts.

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 You can buy potassium iodide and/or iodine granular from Fisher Scientific in 500 gm jars. Remember potassium iodide is useful to combat radiation exposure.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 I'm sure it meant 1/2 dropper full. And that is what I am going in for her. But what about dropper size. Really, they should have given the amount of drops. Anne Re: lugol's Okay, so somebody tell me how do you measure HALF a DROP?!

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 It's dollalrs to donuts that if the FDA doesn't want it sold it works! Just like with stevia. Just recently hey made Pepsi, I think it was, remove stevia from their soft drinks as it was not "approved" as a sweetener. If they let stevia get a foothold in the food industry it's bye, bye killer sweeteners. And because stevia can't be patented you know what that would do to the bottom lines of the FOFDA.
