Guest guest Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 " Elemental iodine readily sublimes and is then rapidly lost to the atmosphere through diffusion. Potassium iodide can be oxidized to elemental iodine by oxygen or other oxidizing agents, especially in the presence of catalysts, such as metal ions, and moisture. Thus, in affluent markets, iodide is always added to salt together with a reducing agent, such as dextrose, and a desiccant or anti-caking agent is usually included. " http://www.unu.edu/unupress/food/V193e/ch06.htm pottasium iodide is ground and mixed into the salt the issues are that you have to get a very even mix and the losses of iodine evaporating out of the salt you need dryers in the salt if you live in a damp or humid climate or the iodine evaporates out which sorta defeats the purpose i personally think that applying diluted lugos/iosol to the skin three times daily is the best way to go but can see this may be too much of a burden the next best way is proably to add a drop of diluted lugos /isol to a drink or cooking water on a regular basis my experience is the benefit of several times a day dosing of iodine compared to once a day is an extrodinary improvement in viral resistance the benefit of iodised salt is not simply iodine but its delivery of iodine several times a day > > The regular iodized table salt I use has dextrose.does that mean > it's illegal? > > > > > > > > > > > For information on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, please read the book > _Breaking the Vicious Cycle_ by Elaine Gottschall and read the following > websites: > http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info > and > http://www.pecanbread.com > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
