I agree 100%.

The subject of the thread suggests that iodine is a metal. What a gag that is. It's obvious that only the non-knowledgeable would call iodine a metal, for, as everyone knowledgeable knows, metals are characterized by a tendency to lose electrons to form stable compounds, are malleable, form alloys with other metals, and are generally good conductors of electricity.

Iodine, on the other hand, is an electron acceptor, is a poor conductor of electricity, is brittle, and does not form alloys with metals. Being on the far right of the periodic table, it's as much of a non-metal as one is going to find. Most would consider anyone who calls iodine a metal to be a crackpot.

Iodine is essentially un-assailable, although I've seen it attacked as often as I've been.

A few cents worth of iodine in the form of Lugol's blows away the effects of $ 25 lots of so-called "herbal remedies". In my experience, if a person is iodine sufficient, in many cases if the person is otherwise receiving adequate nutrition, herbs are not needed for anything, because the body is omnipotent regarding maintaining itself. Iodine sufficiency, in my estimation, eliminates the need for 90% of herbs and other forms of allopathy. That is largely why it's attacked - the profiteers FEAR it because it puts them largely out of business !
