this gets back to cayce and the "detoxified iodine". elemental is a bugger, highly corrosive and a strong oxidizer.
i am aware of a woman right now who is taking only KI for her FBD. it seems to be working and if it is successful then we have a whole new set of parameters to deal with. for now, the dogma here is that elemental is is necessary to take for FBD/PCOS and for good reason - it works.
magnets are the bomb diddy when it comes to Lugols and similar. i still think a little magnetized elemental speeds up healing, recovery and the rate of becoming sufficient.
