Re: From hypo to hyper ... or just coincidence?

100mg is nothing when using sski (potassium iodide), but it is very high when using lugol's long term.

I have used as much as 5gms per day for 5 days of sski, but only took 100mg daily of Lugol's 5% for a month.

Different tissues has different preferences of iodine, for ex:

Thyroid needs 3% prefers iodide (50mg iodide)
Lungs prefer iodide
Skin needs 20% and prefers iodide (400mg iodide)
Salivary Glands prefer iodide
Muscles (650mg) and fat needs (700mg iodine) 70% 
Breast tissue needs 3-5 mg / day minimum and prefers iodine
Prostate prefers iodine
Stomach prefers iodine
Entire body needs 1500 mg - 2gm total
 
Body's Daily Iodine Need:
Thyroid needs 6 mg iodide /day
Breast needs 5 mg iodine /day
Other tissues needs 2 mg/day
(adrenals, thymus, ovaries, hypothalamus, pituitary and others)
