What my Kaiser Dr. said about Lugol's

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I called my Kaiser pharmacy to see if they carried Lugol's and they do.

I called my Dr. to see if I could get a prescription.

She said Lugol's was potassium chloride and was given in case of

nuclear attacks and for hyperthyroidism.

Can anyone refute this for me? Is she right?

It's potassium iodine/iodide. Yes it is given in case of a nuc attack but

it is also a known supplement for iodine. You can order it on the net w/o

an rx. Just go to the Iodine group website and look under the files

section. There is info on what sites offer it.

Potassium Chloride is a different compound, lugols is potassium iodine/iodide.

Used to treat those who have had thyroid removal primarily, and administered

in the event of radiation exposure, due to nuclear fallout.

Before you decide to use a iodine supplement like lugols, make sure you read

all of the information, not just the "props".Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL.com.

I'd advise firing your doctor as she sure seems incompetant to me.

I sure would not go to her for treatment or advice.

That is the way conventional medicine uses high iodine.

I bought Lugol's but haven't started it yet. Can you tell me the

information I should read to warn me off? I'm hypothyroid and have had

breast cancer.

Hi,

I was researching hemochromatosis and came across this info on Kaiser

Permanente, I thought you might be interested,

http://www.kaiserpapers.org/

this is where I got the links from:

http://www.tomnjoan.com/

http://www.tomnjoan.com/history/history.html

I hope that's useful and appropriate info for you, I am in Australia

and we have government medical so don't have to deal with groups like

Kaiser, but we still deal with plenty of incompetents!

Take care

Hi

I'm new to this list, and have been using a product put out by NOW (a supplement manufacturer), called POTASSIUM PLUS IODINE, and containing: Iodine (from Potassium Iodide): 225 mcg per tablet; and Potassium (from Potassium Chloride and Iodide) 99 mg per tablet. I've been taking two tablets a day (450 mcg Iodine), and was wondering if anyone knew if this product was a good source of Iodine.

thanks
