Re: Iodine for my children

Note: Vertical drops are specified, horizontal drops deliver almost 2 x more mg
* 2% Lugols Iodine = 3.1mg per drop ( Iodine 1.25 mg + Iodide 1. 875 mg )

* 5% Lugols Iodine = 6.25mg per drop ( Iodine 2.5 mg + Iodide 3.75 mg )
- - - or 6.25 mg ( Iodine 2.5 mg + Iodide 3.75 mg ) Tablets Iodizyme-HP™

* Iodoral Tablet = 12.5mg per tablet ( Iodine 5 mg, Iodide 7.5 mg )

* Iodoral Tablet = 50 mg per tablet (Iodine 20 mg, Iodide 30 mg )

So the rule of thumb says, 0.08mg Iodine per pound of body weight and if your child is 25 lbs, then 25x.08mg = 2mg a day or 14mg per week. I think 1 drop a day for 5 days a week is close enough for government work.
