Re: Lugol's for Kids?
puberty is coming and lot of
Iodine will be used. i tell people normal nutritional supplement amount opf 5 drops (150mg) of KI. thats a good rule for adults 100
pounds or more. but kids are different. consider weight in your dosage. the
Iodine docs have pregnant women take 25mg per day using lugols. that shoul dbe enought o cover her needs and a good place to consider starting at.
consider this pediatric dosage as use for an expectorant:
SSKI -potassium-iodide-343399">https://reference.medscape.com/drug/pima-syrup-
SSKI -potassium-iodide-343399
Expectorant
SSKI : 60-250 mg PO q6hr
that "code" means to prescribe the child 60-250mg of
KI by mouth every 6 hours. that puts a large child taking a gram a day for congestion! it will definitely break up mucus. best lung medicine i ever had.
so you have a lot of room to play. by all means, play.
Iodine tends to turn the reproductive clock back a little bit and make it work better, from start to finish. i suspect it should delay puberty slightly and produce a very healthy (and fertile) young woman.
be well
