Ah-ha- I hadn't thought to test for the Lugol's, I've been using Potassium Iodide ( SSKI ), and not testing Lugol's. You're right, I got it over the SSKI ..but to take it no sooner than 25 minutes after taking the ascorbic acid.
Sometimes..I'm really glad that I've invested in my own little (home) supplement store, so when things are needed- I have them on hand. I don't have access to running down to a health food store, or even a grocery store when they come up as being needed right away.
