Does anyone tried to do an Iodine test at home???
There is a simple way to tell if someone has low iodine(maybe thyroid problem) by
painting the foot(soles) with iodine(before going to sleep).
It's what i did last night, and i checked in the morning to see if the Iodine was absorbed entirely or just partially. I was surprised to see that was not trace of Iodine left of the foot.Please help me understand this:
does this means that i have a low iodine level???

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,023,902I'm wondering how you feel the day after you did that? Any thing you notice, like extra energy, or other? The Iodine went someplace and I venture to guess it was your bloodstream.
Try painting your inner arm or on your tummy, a 1" circle, and see what happens..do it in the daytime so you can check on it from time to time. Note how long it takes for it to be absorbed. Then post again here of those results.

This is a reply to # 1,024,105Thank you Prism,
I am glad you asked how i feel, it made me self conscious that i was hyper all day long!!!
Than i realized that i also took some supplements (wo/thinking of my night before test) of 200mcg Selenium and Kelp 225mcg plus some minerals containing 40mcg iodine. I stared to take these supplements after a period of being depressed and kind of tired.
I took these in the morning- but I guess the Iodine absorbed by my body over night was still there.
I've noticed lately of having periods of Depression altering with periods of being more jumpy,hyper - sort of attention deficit desorder(but very active).
I'll do another test on my inner arm tomorrow. I used regular Iodine 2%.
Is Lugol better?

It's just that Lugol's at the 5% solution is less drops taken, then the 2%. I can't say if it's better. I read that it said sometimes the more diluted it is, can help a person to absorb it better, so I think with some experimentation on your part and coming here to read a lot and read other people's experiences you'll find your way just fine. At least you have begun the journey! You could try painting one on your inner arm, and one on another place, like one of your breasts perhaps, or your upper thigh. Just to see what happens. Both the 1" round is good.

I tried the Iodine test again- this time on my inner arm,my tummy and my foot
i did not do it overnight but this morning.After aprox 3 hrs i noticed the Iodine was still there but less. After 6 hours the spot on my tummy disappeared completely while on my inner arm i still could distinguish as a very vague stain(not yellow) but as a darker skin color. The upper tummy is the spot that was absorbed the most i guess- i could not tell where the Iodine circle was.I used regular iodine tincture-not LUGOL
I wonder what this mean ?

Hi,
Imagine that- never crossed my mind - i do not know why!!!
Now if anyone knows- because it looks that there are people on this forum w/ a lot of knowledge and experience:
What does this mean?
Is called already low thyroid or just low iodine?
Is anything i could do?
Do i need to take iodine,or etc- my entire life?
I guess i need to educate myself. I was looking in a different direction
Thank you for the info!!!
