Re: Iodine for my children

hi mm,

for children, the best thing to use is KI. they should not need additional elemental iodine.

i used to tell parents to use the amounts that the CDC recommends for radiological emergencies:

According to the FDA, the following doses are appropriate to take after internal contamination with (or likely internal contamination with) radioactive iodine:

Newborns from birth to 1 month of age should be given 16 mg (¼ of a 65 mg tablet or ¼ mL of solution). This dose is for both nursing and non-nursing newborn infants.
Infants and children between 1 month and 3 years of age should take 32 mg (½ of a 65 mg tablet OR ½ mL of solution). This dose is for both nursing and non-nursing infants and children.
Children between 3 and 18 years of age should take 65 mg (one 65 mg tablet OR 1 mL of solution). Children who are adult size (greater than or equal to 150 pounds) should take the full adult dose, regardless of their age.
Adults should take 130 mg (one 130 mg tablet OR two 65 mg tablets OR two mL of solution).
Women who are breastfeeding should take the adult dose of 130 mg.

but i have gone beyond that with more experience. now i suggest one drop of KI (30mg) for every year old. does that sound like a lot? it is not at all. it will keep a lot of infections away and keep heavy metals and bad halogens out of the body.

the medicos have SSKI . they call it pima. it can be prescribed, even to children. one of its uses is as an expectorant. guess how much the doctors say to give children as an expectorant? KI is the best lung medicine, btw.

Expectorant

SSKI: 60-250 mg PO q6hr

yep, thats the pediatric dose. 60-250 milligrams every six hours.

so ditch the fear and dont believe the lies. giving your kids Iodine is one of the best things you can do for their health. pets, too. Tweet
