Re: What do you think?

 I was part of that thread/debacle, mostly a spectator attempting an effort to mediate/mitigate/minimize the debate and CONFUSION. I suppose the "aqueous solution" clarification is something intrinsically presumed within the context of the VWT vernacular. When referring to iodine supplementation it is a given. After all, the forms of iodine which are primarily supported, researched, and reported on by the team and forum members are Lugols, SSKI, Magnascent (all SOLUTIONS) and Iodoral (buffered).

When talking about drugs confusion can be deadly.  It is like when someone was casually mentioning using oleander soup on the cancer board with no statement that it has to be prepared to remove the poisonous cardiac glycosides.  Someone completely unfamiliar with oleander that went out picked some leaves and cooked them in to a soup will likely be dead before they could get the second spoonful to their mouth.

To add to that, in his argument he again stated that 15mg of elemental iodine is insignificant, but the 50"mg" of Lugol's, which you state provides 20mg elemental iodine, is all of a sudden plenty?  A difference of 5mg iodine is not a big difference.  So I still believe that he is clueless to what he was talking about and he really meant 50mg elemental iodine, which would be dangerous.
