Thanks for the post. I'll be checking out my supplement amount today. Do you think those of use who cook from scratch may be getting even less iodine?

You apply a 2 inch square of this liquid iodine to your skin and leave it there for 24 hours. (Obviously you really shouldn't shower that area.) If that iodine is absorbed within 24 hours then your body needs more iodine. You can supplement with that stuff if you want. But eating seafood is a good source. Also sea vegetables like kelp are great too; these are very high in lots of minerals. But using kosher or sea salt can make some low in iodine if they were basically using the iodized salt before. |

I do think that those of us who cook from scratch can be at risk. Unless you use a lot of seaweed in your recipes.
As for the 'fading' of the iodine on the skin, there are mixed reviews as to whether that has any truth to it or not. I supplement as ortho said though, by just basting some 5% somewhere on my skin. It ALWAYS is gone in about an hour or two... I don't think I'm all that short on it... so it kind of leaves me on the "don't use that technique to tell what your levels are" side. I'd be happy if it was proven otherwise though as it really would make my decision to boost my baste a lot easier. I usually put it on an ankle or the tender part of the children's arms just because it gets covered with sleeves or pants. I do know that some people mix it with water and 'mist' themselves everyday. I just give us each a quick baste a couple of times a week. I'm considering upping my dose though.

I used to backpack and camp a lot. When we needed more water than we could carry we would collect a bottle of it from a stream and purify it with a drop of iodine. I always wondered if that extra iodine could have not been so good for me (I have hypothyroidism). But I feel better after reading some of the link. It is a good site. Thanks Kim.
My son went on an extended trip in the Boundary Waters Canoe area this summer. He said they drank water from the lakes. I asked how they purified it and he said "with iodine". I feel better about that now. --Judy |
