Interesting article about iodine on this page. Speaks of the discovery of iodine I bought some iodine at the chemist today. No big deal, you think. I'd asked on Saturday - assistant couldn't find any. Asked today - assistant could see a bottle listed on the computer, but not find it. Eventually tracked it down in some back room. (Small isolated town, but even so, I am surprised iodine isn't on the shelves or in the supermarket.) I asked (sure she wouldn't have any or be able to get any) if she could get me Lugol's iodine. The one I got is the only one available, she said, all others "discontinued". Must work too well. Anyway, the one I got is called Aqueous Iodine Solution APF which I suppose means Australian Pharmaceutical something. On the above site, it says USP (I guess US Pharma...) tincture of iodine contains 2% iodine and 2.4% sodium iodide dissolved in 50% ethyl alcohol and Lugol's Contains 5% iodine and 10% potassium iodide. My bottle says: Iodine 5% w/v, Potassium Iodide 10% w/v Do I have Lugol's solution anyway??? Richard? Anybody? And can I safely put a few drops in cider vinegar/honey? to drink? I slapped it all over one foot to test the absorption. Also mixed it with my (very strong, too strong to spray in mouth) throat spray which also contains DMSO and dabbed that all over the place - well, here and there, anyway. The annoying thing has been that I know very well that somewhere I have some Lugol's that I was given, and seem to have misplaced, and couldn't get any in the health food store in the nearest town. But maybe I've got the right stuff now? Rowena -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
