That’s great news River xx

May I ask what % of iodine is in that Lugol's solution?
Twetch ·
I use 2% on the kids, just one drop. And 5% on me, i'm up to 3 drops now. Next week will get to 4 drops max dose.
Twetch ·
Oh for the record, 4 drops is ideal max dose for women. For men it's just two :)
Twetch ·
This is interesting. I am now confused. My Dad is up to 60 drops and is certain that there is no upper limit other than wasting what is not used by the body.
Twetch ·
weeee wow 60 drops? ive never read anything about such a high dose, I think it should be judged on skin absorption and also definitely cant go straight to a tonne of drops or you'll go into hard detox and end up with a tonne of side effects.
Twetch ·
I think if after a few months your skin is absorbing within a few hours only at max dose it would be safe to continue increasing
Twetch ·
I am however by no means an expert, this is all new to me too.
Twetch ·
I only just found out that the limit to iodine in solutions to 2.2% has been set by the DEA, due to it's use in METH production. So much for getting hold of a 10% solution and not be thought of as a drug dealer.😩
Twetch ·
oh wow yeah that's low, I can get 5% over the counter here in naturopath stores
Twetch ·
Oh, I agree. He has been slowly working up to that dose over a long long while. I've never paid much attention till now, where I see how important Iodine is in either blocking or getting in before Fluorine.
