Reddit mentions of J.Crow's Lugol's Iodine Solution, 2 oz, Twin Pack (2 Bottles)

Not one to be a conspiracy theorist, but I've yet to find out on what basis the RDA of 150/250 mcg iodine ingestion is based on. It's my belief that this is the minimum amount required to prevent goiters and gestational mental retardation but not the optimum amount for brain and body health.

The Japanese people naturally ingest over 80 times that amount on average or 13 mg (13,000 mcg) from their seaweed. The FDA won't let you buy food in the US with that high of a concentration of iodine.

That's why I order this from Amazon and ingest 8 drops a day.

I have times when I’m more fatigued than others... like I need a nap after work or sometimes even during my lunch break and my job is not even strenuous. Something that has given me a lot of energy are iodine drops. They are great and usually don’t fail to get my energy up.. I take em in the mornings.

Not unless it's listed on the label. For meeting iodine requirements I recommend Lite Salt, kelp capsules with iodine listed, or Lugol's iodine (but be careful with the dosing).

Kelp is known to have a lot of iodine, and it's pretty cheap in supplement form. Lugol's if also popular: http://www.amazon.com/J-CROWS®-Lugols-Iodine-Solution-Twin/dp/B00E3B49R2

particularly I resonate strongly with this symptom, it's something I have not seen mentioned elsewhere, my cognition is top but I don't have the patience to actually sit down and read a book

>I also forgot to mention. I have never really been much of an avid reader. I can solve problems of very complex technical and mechanical problems with ease, but when it comes to reading I just get too distracted far too quickly. Iodine has given my brain this new dimension for enjoying reading. I am able to read any book now and enjoy it, as well as understand it! Understand: I haven't been able to enjoy sitting down and reading books for long periods for over 5 years. Every other aspect of my cognition has been wonderful. Iodine has not only given me back the gift to enjoy reading, but also boosted every other aspect of my cognition. I am simply in awe.

No harm in trying it, and seeing the reviews on amazon I think it's a very underrated supplement. I think it'd benefit people with thyroid issues.

How would I go about diluting such a solution to get the required dilution of something like this?


Should I use distilled water or something else?
