What is given below is what I had made up for me in France. It is Lugol's 5

percent solution. Yours is not the same proportion. Fibrojay

A History

of Lugol's

Lugol's Iodine (also called " Lugol's solution " ) was first developed by the

French physician, Lugol, in 1829. It is a transparent brown liquid

consisting of 10 parts potassium iodide (KI) to 5 parts iodine to 85 parts of

(distilled) water.

i see no discrepancy from what you describe.

KI = potassium iodide

I = iodine

classic lugol's formula is, by weight (pure water weighs 1 gram per 1

milliliter or cc):

5% iodine

10% potassium iodide

look again, it probably doesn't say iodide crystals, but iodine crystals.

they might've screwed up printing the label?

elemental comes as colored crystals. potasium iodide is a white crystalline

powder (i think).

it's probably just fine. you can't even buy lugols in that concentration in

the usa anymore except for ridiculous $ in one oz bottles, one bottle per

transaction.

I plan on making my own Lugol’s –

there’s a video on YouTube on how to do it (it’s quite simple).

I purchased the two ingredients from eBay…they’re

a bit expensive: however, with the amount of Lugol’s I’ll be able

to make from it, it will wind up being WAY cheaper than the $8 an ounce

(dropper sized bottle) that I paid.

Do look it up though as you’re not

supposed to touch one of the ingredients….and I believe you use distilled

water (haven’t needed to make it yet but I have the ingredients J)

distilled water for sure.

i'd wear gloves and not touch either ingredient.

$8 for a 1oz bottle of lugols is about as cheap as i've seen it. that's without the shipping which is at least another $5.

Problem: How many mg/drop (metric) for

240g I + 480g KI in 4000 ml?

Molecular wt. of potassium (KI) = 39

Molecular wt. of iodine (I = 126.9

Total molecular wt. = 165

Proportion of I by wt. = 126.9/165 = .769

Therefore, [(240000 mg + (.769 x 480000 mg)]/4000 ml = 152.28 mg/ml

Each metric drop would represent:

152.28 mg/ml x 1 tsp./100 drops x 4.93 ml/tsp = 7.5 mg/drop (metric)

Bear in mind that a U.S. dropper will produce 76 drops per teaspoon, giving a

slightly different value. You can easily check the type of dropper you have by

counting how many drops there are in a teaspoon, and modifying the above

equation accordingly.

In the standard 5% Lugol's solution equation:

5g + 10g 235g + 470g

------------- = -------------------

85ml 4000ml

The right hand side shows the approximate values for the Alpha Omega equation,

taken simply by multiplying each term the left equation by 4000/85.

The standard equation defines the % iodine in terms of the free iodine crystal,

namely 5 parts (5% normal solution). Alpha Omega defines the % iodine in terms

of the sum of the free iodine crystal plus that amount of iodine contained in

the potassium iodide, giving a 15.2% normal solution (.152g/ml).

Simply stated, the 15% Alpha Omega Lugol's solution (at 7.5mg/metric drop) is

approximately equivalent to standard 5% Lugol's solution (at 6.8mg/metric drop).

For the user, the only thing that is important is the mg/drop.

Thanks for replying however-I'm looking right at the label it says :

Ingredients:

distilled water, potassium iodide & iodide crystals

I've emailed them for an answer, but no reply !

another place: (http://www.altcancer.com/lugols.htm#history) it says:

Supplement Facts: Serving size: one (1) drop. Servings per container: 5,676.

Ingredients: Distilled water, potassium iodine, iodine crystal.

Then it says:

What Formula Do You Use?

We are frequently asked what formula we us in making our Lugol's: 2% or 3% or

5%.

To make the original version, we use what amounts to a 3% (2.91%) formula

(iodine and iodine compound). The formula is simple: 80 gm. of potassium iodine

(KI) is added to 4,000 ml of distilled water (roughly 4,000 gm). After fully

dissolving, 40 gm. of iodine crystal is added. After the iodine crystal fully

dissolves (which takes several hours), the product is packaged and stored.

To make the newer 7% Lugol's version, using the same 4,000 ml. of distilled

water, the amounts of iodine use are 200 gm. of KI, and 100 gm. of iodine

crystal. For 15% Lugol's, to 4,000 ml. of distilled water we dissolve 480 gm. of

KI and 240 gm. of iodine crystal.

Lugol's Iodine has an optimal shelf-life of approximately one year.

Terry7, have you received a reply from Alpha Omega Labs yet regarding their 15%

Lugol's solution ingredients? I'd like to know because I was looking at

purchasing some of this, but not if the ingredients are not truly the Lugol's

formula.

Thanks, ka

Have you received an answer yet? I too have the 15% from Alpha Omega Labs and

feel that I am not being helped as much as eating alot of kelp. I was starting

to lose weight but now nothing for the past month of the switch. As for me, I

have access to JCrows solution and I will be switching ASAP. Let me know what

you find.

If my chemistry theory is correct, I believe that the 5% iodide

must be a spelling error as I don’t believe iodide can be found purely as

iodide. It is either Iodine or combined into a compound to be an iodide eg

Potassium Iodide etc.

They emailed me back & said:

Terry ....

Please see earlier email ...

the product contains potassium iodide and iodine crystals,

using the products shown in the MSDS sheet. We apologize

for the single-digit typo on the small label. To my knowledge,

there is no such a thing as " iodide crystal " anyway. The

term " iodide " indicates iodine bound to a metal salt.

I did swich to Jcrows iodine and thought I would let every know my results. I

started it on Monday and had a " metal headache " again which I had stopped having

after the first 2 weeks or so on Alpha Omega Labs iodine. It also tastes very

different, I would even say stronger(it is much harder for me to just drink).

The taste difference might be due to the difference in drops (4 verses 20).

Besides the taste and the headache for the day, I have had no other differences

in reactions good or bad yet. I do have one question for you all. I can't go

without my dose (50mg) for more than 6 hours or I will become cold all over

again (hands, feet, and body). Have any of you experienced this? Do you have

conculsions why? I have been unable to take the loading test as money has not

become avaible yet (I almost had money this week but something else came up). I

have been taking iodine for about 1 month now.

Thank you

Amy...

Have you tried boosting up to 75mg or even 100mg of lugols/iodoral?

started it on Monday and had a " metal headache " again which I had stopped having

after the first 2 weeks or so on Alpha Omega Labs iodine. It also tastes very

different, I would even say stronger(it is much harder for me to just drink).

The taste difference might be due to the difference in drops (4 verses 20).

Besides the taste and the headache for the day, I have had no other differences

in reactions good or bad yet. I do have one question for you all. I can't go

without my dose (50mg) for more than 6 hours or I will become cold all over

again (hands, feet, and body). Have any of you experienced this? Do you have

conculsions why? I have been unable to take the loading test as money has not

become avaible yet (I almost had money this week but something else came up). I

have been taking iodine for about 1 month now.

No. I was thinking of what I read in Brownsteins book about how you would need

more if you have any major illnesses, or are overweight, or live in a highly

toxic area. I am overweight, and have hormone issues but no other major health

issues yet. I would not mind going up that high but I would wish to at least

have the loading test done first which hopefully will be within the next month.

The other thing that the switch did as well was make my breasts sore again.

Again, that happened when I first started to take the Alpha Omega Labs formula

but ended at the end of two weeks of being on it. It is back with this change

of companys. I don't understand why some of the " getting better " symptoms came

back if I was maintaining the same dose with a different company. As I said

before, that leads me to believe that this JCrows company is much better than

Alpha Omega Labs. I will keep you updated. Thanks for the thoughts and if you

think of anything else, please let me know.

Thanks

I bought " Lugol's " from Alpha Omega about a year or so before the company was

shut down by the FDA.

It was my first experiment with Lugol's and I didn't think it was doing anything

for me.

Then I found this list and there was a brief discussion about it (probably 4-5

yrs ago).

An active list member (long gone, it seems) told me to check the label. First

thing I noticed that there was NO percentage given at all. This was before the

FDA crackdown on the 5% and all Lugol's was 5, and sometimes 7% could be found.

When I did switch to Lugol's from another source, I noticed the difference right

away, It was DOING something!

For this reason, I have a problem trusting Alpha Omega's products.

Thank you for you input. It is always good to know you are not going insane. I

truly do think that the product is different and JCrows works better and is more

potent. I am not saying that JCrows is the best but I am saying that Alpha

Omega Labs will not be receiving my business again. I should have trusted my

husband in the first place. He did not want me to order from them in the first

place which is not like him to be so vocal about something. Oh well, we live

and we learn.
