Re: 250mcg to 130 000 mcg (0.25 - 130 mg), depending on who you trust... real nice range, huh? And yet another source says that 1100 mCg is the upper tolerable level. by Iolite ..... Candida & Dysbiosis Forum

Yes, Lugols has potassium Iodide and iodine. It is safe to take internally. I've been taking either iodoral or Lugols for the last 2 years or so-- I'm still here and the only side effects is that I've been detoxing-- throwing off bromides, but that's a good thing. If you go reading the links I, harmonic, hucha, healing waters and manik provided, you'll find that the body needs both Iodine and iodide. You'll also find that we are all probably iodine/iodide deficient due to Iodine generally lacking in our diet and all the bromide, and fluoride in our environment. When we are iodine/iodide deficient the halides bromide and fluoride take up residence in our Iodine receptors (the body taking those if iodine is missing) resulting in many, many health problems including: goiters, hypothyroidism, hashimotos, breast cancer, fibroid cystic breasts, uterine fibroids, polycystic ovarian syndrome just to name a few.

So, bottom line, if you would like to start slow you can take the liquid kelp supplement but you will notice faster improvement if you move on up to lugols, iodoral, magnascent or trappers SSKI (iodine supplementation forum).

The reason that larger iodine supplementation amounts are considered to be "toxic" by folks who are mis-informed is the detoxing effect listed in my earlier post. When bromide is leaving the body, a lot of negative symptoms -- detoxing are felt. I personally have had most of the symptoms listed. But, I either took breaks from taking iodine or increased my salt wanter intake and the symptoms went away as the bromide was flushed out. Taking some liver supporting supplements like milk thistle and n-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) can go a long way in helping reduce the detox symptoms.

Iodine is good for you...please don't be scared away by the negative post here. In fact, leave this forum and go over to the iodine supplementation forum, you'll find lots of support and lots of posting of the positive effects of iodine supplementation as well as postings of detox reactions so you won't be sidelined when something strange pops up 'cause someone else is bound to have experienced it too and posted about it.
