always hold your dropper in a vertical position. If you make drops holding the dropper on a slant the drops will be bigger.
Is Logols that much stronger than Nascent? Dr. Sirus says 100 drops of nascent is 40 mg's...is this correct?

I decided to get back on the nascent due to the nuclear problems and my bottle had a couple of small black globs around the neck inside that is sticky and looks like tar, is it just the iodine, and hope it's not harmful, I just took a dose.

I think it has been fairly well documented that for protection of the thyroid the best choice is potassium iodide, that is Lugol's iodine. Look into it.

Some parts of the body utilize elemental iodine others like potassium iodide.

If japanese people eat upwards of 12.5 mg of iodine a day you would think that they dont have any intestinal flora. Most of it is absorbed in the stomach and does not make its way down into the intestine is how I understand it.

Yes, Dr Simoncini states that topical lugols will get rid of psoriasis. You are lucky that it worked with two topical dosages a day. He recommends coating the psoriasis many times a day, even up to 10 times or more. When the skin dries out from the iodine you peel it off and apply another coat. I tried this and found it quite painful and ended up stopping on my elbows and knees even though I could see some improvement. I had a break out on my hand, a rather large on and applied the lugols immediately. This cured easily with applications only about 3 or 4 times a day and I think perhaps because it was a new spot and perhaps not deeply rooted. One small spot was very tough over a knuckle so I switched to topical MMS1 and it cleared.

For the psoriasis on my knees and and elbows I resolved it with several courses of very high dosage vitamin D3. Its been clear now for quite a long time. My daily dosage is 5mg D3

Good find LoreD. My husband is a smoker and I have been giving him iodine for several years... now I have a good reason! I didn't know this about iodine concentrating in the lungs.

You can nebulize it also, I have only done the nascent at like 2 drops in the small cup, but it will help break up stuff and help you breathe easier.

Hi thanks for your reply. I'm using it to help energy levels during the day (promote sleep at night) and I wish to purchase from iherb.com

I'm going to be using 5HTP 100mg (melatonin 3mg as variation some days) & L-theanine at night before sleep with B12 liposomal spray in the mornings first thing when I wake up.

most of the people on this forum take iodine in larger dosages that a mcg tablet will provide. At Iherb this is the most similar product. https://www.iherb.com/EuroPharma-Terr...les/23508?at=0 but I have never used it.

Traditional Japanese diet provides about 12.5mg of iodine a day.

I do not use tablets, I use liquid iodine and I purchase it here as I fully trust this company:

Many thanks for the reply Arrowwind. I was thinking about starting off with a smaller dosage, something like this one:

https://www.iherb.com/TPCS-Iosol-Form...0-ml/4785?at=1

And then maybe try something stronger? There seems to be shockingly good reviews on that.

Well, you can do that if you want to but the literature and the iodine specialist doctors do not support such small dosages... and it is much more costly that way also, if cost should be an issue.

Hi everyone.

Today is my first day on Iodine. Please can I ask what other supplemental vitamins and trace elements go hand in hand synergistically with Iodine? I know to stay off the Vitamin C when its time to take Iodine. What are the best times to ingest it?

Thanks everyone

The companion supplements to iodine are selenium, vitamin C, and magnesium. Just separate the iodine dosage from them by about an hour.
