* Attention Jeannie - Keloids & Iodine

[Guest guest]

Jeannie,

Hit the jackpot for you tonight! Here's yet one more final post re: Keloids.

Glad I can help! Trisha

28. Cuts and scabs. It is my belief a water solution of iodine (like Lugol's) is

an important therapeutic agent for skin. Because of its effectiveness and the

results, perhaps many skin diseases are related to local tissue areas of

relative iodine deficiency. Perhaps the most graphic lesions are the " keloid "

(worm) incision scars formed after surgical procedures. If the iodine intake and

tissue levels are adequate, such as in Japan, keloid formation doesn't happen

(17). In addition, iodine's ability to trigger natural cell death (apoptosis)

(18) makes it effective against all pre-cancerous skin lesions and likely many

cancerous lesions. The local site is replaced with normal skin.
