I was surprised to learn that the Japanese get a daily intake of 12.5 mg. and that cancer rates, particularly breast, are much lower there than in the U.S. There are some fantasic audio tapes on Iodine somewhere on this site. Somehow I can't seem to relocate them, or I'd plug in the link.
Two Lugol's drops (at 5%) is the equivalent of 12.5 mg. So at two mere drops you just getting a basic amount that the Japanese get naturally through their daily diet.
You need to go beyond that to reach therapeutic levels or, for our purposes here, levels that fight parasitic infections.
Much of agricultural land is now so stripped of nutrients we don't get naturally occurring Iodine in the amounts we should. A great book to read, not on iodine, but on what we are doing to the land in this industrial period in food history, is Omnivore's Dilemma.
Note to anyone intending to buy iodine: you may be unpleasantly surprised to learn that it typically comes in MICROgrams, requiring huge amounts just to get the basic 12.5 mg. You might need to source from the internet to get higher concentrations. Lugol's and Iodoral are two that are referred to in these audio tapes.
Glax - have you tried Iodoral?
