Guest guest Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Sylviane, ascorbic acid also decolorize lugol's solution (I think most acids do also) but Dr iodine is not the same formula as lugol's, if i recall correctly I think it is soduim iodide. I'm a little confused -- and worried -- about this. Are you saying that Dr. has a white iodine with a different formula, or that the product she sells labeled Lugol's 5% is a different formula?

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 I was so worried about this, I wrote before even thinking of checking my Lugol's bottle. It's definitely potassium iodide.

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Yes , that's really hat I mean ! I found that recently as I was considering buying from a clark's french site, but it's the same with us/uk/... sites (those I visited at least)... see this site for instance (last lines note): http://shop.toolsforhealing.com/Lugol_s_Iodine_30ml_p/dcr-lugols.htm be careful on dr clark's products site if you find "lugol's" you might see "sodium" instead of "potassium" or nothing about formula...

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Syviane, I just went to your link and it turns out these people are selling their own product which is a " Veggie Wash " and not Dr. 's Lugol 5%. Here is their reference to Dr. , which can be very misleading: " Dr. could not find a proper source of potassium iodide and has recommended the use of sodium iodide instead. For this reason our Lugol's is now made with sodium iodide. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Just to clarify. The Lugol's 5% from Dr s site is not true Lugol's as it is sodium iodide and not potassium iodide. The white iodine is different on Dr 's site and it is only potassium iodide in water. The white iodine that I have is potassium iodide, iodine and ammonia. > > Syviane, > > I just went to your link and it turns out these people are selling their > own product which is a " Veggie Wash " and not Dr. 's Lugol 5%. > Here is their reference to Dr. , which can be very misleading: > " Dr. could not find a proper source of potassium iodide and has > recommended the use of sodium iodide instead.

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Hi , Where do you buy your white iodine from ?

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 , The Lugol's 5% from Dr s site is not true Lugol's as it is sodium iodide and not potassium iodide I've just gone to her site and found that, indeed, what is being sold there is "Water, Sodium Iodide, Granular Iodine (2%)" -- the "Veggie Wash." What I bought from Canada (Health In-Sync) is labeled: Lugol's iodine, 5% -- filtered water, potassium iodide, granular iodine. The only reference to is as follows: "Use only as directed in Dr. Hulda 's books." I believe what I have is the standard Lugol's which sells in Canada, very cheaply, in 2 oz and 4 oz bottles. I don't know what arrangement with Dr. results in the recommendation on the bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Hi Sylviane, Here is a link the Dr s EU site where they are selling white iodine at 7 euros for 4oz. http://www.store.eu/search.php?mode=search & page=1 I actually bought my De La Cruz white iodine in the US. Ordering it online would be very expensive I think. Hope this helps PS There is a new site in France which is selling Lugol's 5%. It is expensive at 25 euros a bottle.

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 I just bought Lugol's from amazon.com, I just picked the one with the lowest shipping rate, and it said co-op something. > > > > Syviane, > > > > I just went to your link and it turns out these people are selling their > > own product which is a " Veggie Wash " and not Dr. 's Lugol 5%. > > Here is their reference to Dr. , which can be very misleading: > > " Dr. could not find a proper source of potassium iodide and has > > recommended the use of sodium iodide instead.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 If you're in France, you can go to any compounding pharmacy and have the "solution de lugol's" made up. I paid about 7 Euros for 100 ml. Fibrojay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
