Re: What is the right lugol's on breast painting? 5% or 2%?

[guest]

Jen,

You can paint as much and as often as you like if you mix the 5%
Lugol's with oil. I use coconut oil with iodine (mixed to a dark
rich rust red) every day except one day a week when I'm at home and
can use deep penetrating -- but sticky -- castor oil. The c.o.
absorbs quickly without staining or showing. I use it the combo
freely on sensitive areas such as my face.






I am painting 5% lugol's on my breast. It is quite
irritated. After a couple of weeks, my skin always peels
off. It is quite painful when applying on the new skin.
The 5%lugol is too strong for breast painting?

Thanks,
Jen

Jen-- are you painting for breast issues? You might want to stop, let your
skin heal, and then continue with 's recommendation. You might want
to use coconut oil applied to the skin to help you heal, it is wonderful
for the skin.

This may be TMI for you, but . . . Most of the actinic keratosis
(possible precursor to skin cancer) I have is on my lower arms and
the backs of my hands, but I also have a couple of tiny spots on my
nose that have not been healing. (Occasionally I will dose those
spots directly with iodine.) and my lower lip is also affected at
times (peeling). But, in general, my face has always been a
problematic area. I had acne from puberty all the way up to my
fifties when it turned into rosacea and I also developed blethitis
on my lash area of my eyelids. For many years now (I'll be 72 next
week), I've had swollen, dry eyes at night and swelling in the
morning of the lids and bags below. The right side of my face is
particularly "at risk" with a decades-long infected tonsil, loss of
hearing in the right ear and a swollen right side of my tongue.

But - after that horrendous portrait -- I must add that I have nary
a wrinkle, the awful dark enlarged pores I once had have disappeared
with the right diet and lifestyle (the last 8 years), my cheeks are
rosy, and I sometimes actually get compliments on my complexion.
And I have seen definite improvement on almost all my symptoms since
adding the "paint" treatments (which I also stick into my right
ear!) and I'm only in month three. So I'm very hopeful.

I paint just about everywhere I can reach (in addition to ingesting
the stuff).

Hi Clair/,

Thanks a lot for this great idea. I will do it right away!

Have you had your teeth/jaw checked by a biologic dentist? I had a dead tooth (no pain or symptoms) for many years. I developed cysts in my right eye-lid, chronic sinus issues, a persistent & very painful boil inside my right ear, & the nodule on my thyroid while that infection was simmering. When the tooth was finally removed (along with a big chunk of my jaw) I realized that I could put my right hand over all those issues -- middle finger on the eyelid cyst, heel of hand over the thyroid nodule, thumb over my ear...

I do think many -- perhaps all -- of my facial problems started with
bad teeth (mercury and infections).* I had the mercury removed in
the mid-eighties and I had the decaying teeth removed a few years
ago.* I did keep one root canal (that I mentioned in my previous
post to April) so that I could still chew! * Other than that one
tooth -- which may or may not be causing problems -- I think the
current issues I mention have pretty much taken on a life of their
own.

How much iodine do you mix in with the coconut oil,
please?



I don't measure, but for a near-full body paint I can use as much as
a half dropper full and if I'm just doing face and arms, it might be
about 7 drops or so. I just add and mix and add until I get a deep
rust-red color for most external applications. If I'm doing a
vaginal application, then it's a more rust than red color as I worry
about any too-hot feeling there on the delicate tissues.

I do the mix in a tiny glass bowl with a teensy bamboo spoon (no
metal). I know some people use surgical gloves to apply, but I use
my bare hands as I'm not sure plastic is helpful and I am sure I can
use any extra iodine going into my palms.

Maybe you are just doing breasts now, but I would recommend you
include the area below your shoulders, next to the armpits and above
the breasts -- where the lymph glands are.

Very good tips! Thanks, Clair.

I painted my face this morning, just to try it.** I had iodine all over my hands.** I went out to milk the goats and they went mad, trying to lick and bite my hands where the iodine is!*** Even one of the two week old kids.** I used to put seaweed mix in their feed but have been a bit slack lately, so will go back to doing that and am considering putting just a little in their water.

[guest]

Hi ,

I will let my breast skin take a short break. When it gets better, I will apply
the mix of coconut oil and iodine. Will update.

Thanks,

It's been many decades since I read the book by Doctor Jarvis - " Vermont
Folk Medicine -- but if I remember right he had as much to say about
iodine for animals as iodine for people. If you're not sure about
amounts, you might want to check that book. And then, you might want to
up the amounts from what he recommended -- because those goats are
surely more challenged with pollution these days than their ancestors were.

This is interesting.My 18 year old daughter has a bit of acne and a bad habit of scratching it off so she has a bunch of scars now on her face.She certainly does need iodine orally for other reasons as well but I&#39;m interested additionally ,if anyone has suggestions how to treat the acne and the scars (she compulsively scratches off the acne.Would coconut oil with iodine be a good approach and what else ?
Also what we use is detoxified iodine.Is there a difference between say lugol&#39;s and detoxified iodine when used topically* (or otherwise) ?Thank you for this wonderful forumEstairOn Mon, Oct 11, 2010 at 4:31 PM, West <clairewest@...> wrote:

Absolutely, animals need iodine. My cats drink more water when I put a few
drops of Lugol's in. --

You can also add some essential oils to the coconut oil. Just make sure to get
really pure oils. Helichrysum and incense would help with the scarring also
Geranium.

Hi Jen,

I use Iosol iodine for painting. There is no irritation and it does not stain.
I haven't tried Lugol's with coconut oil but I have tried Iosol with coconut oil
and I didn't get the same results. I applied the Iosol two different times to
areas of traumas and I had overnight success. My adrenals calmed way down after
each time. My son's left plugged sinus (Babesia) is clearing up. I ingest
Lugol's.

Dr. Derry says to cover with plastic wrap to prevent evaporation. Here is
his study on scars. He has a good discussion at the end.

Hi Joan,

Thanks for sharing your experience. Iosol seems only includs iodide, which is
good for thyroid. If it doesn't contain iodine, will it work to breast?

HI Joan,
I'm brand new to the group and was wondering where you said your adrenals calmed
way down was this due to topical application of iodine with coconut oil. Just
curious as I have had severe adrenal exhaustion and just came off hydrocortisone
2 months ago and am looking forward to trying iodine again. Tried in the past
but detox was too intense.
Thanks for any info.
