Okay, since I've gone on Lugol's 7 % I'm confused after reading Bonnie's post. At 7% it is 3.40mg. I need 15 drops to get at 47.60mg. How can 12 drops of 5% be at 75mg?I rechecked my math on this.Can someone correct me or maybe I am right on with what I am taking and the amount and Bonnie is not taking as much as she thinks she is taking.

Hi Louise:

While I was at 20 mg. per day of Lugol's Liquid of 5% (I never heard of 6%), NOTHING happened, except my digestion started to improve. I have Gastroparesis and nothing is moving out of the stomach for up to 20 hours. That is how long it takes to digest a meal, so I had SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) but didn't know it. I'm still learning about this terrible affliction that a lot of Diabetics have.

When I reached 50 mg. by increasing one more drop each week (and it took 8 weeks to reach 8 drops daily) once I got to that point, my Blood Sugar had gone TOO LOW a few times, while taking Metformin, so I gradually weaned myself off that drug, which I have since learned damages the Kidneys.

I was still continuing to increase my dose each week and am now at 12 drops (75 mg.) per day. I have been sitting at 75 mg. now for a month. My Blood Sugar still amazes me each time I take it. I've tried eating chocolates which I really missed this past 13 years and had to deprive myself of a lot of good things. I couldn't even eat a whole potato, now I can eat 2 if I want to.

My blood sugar will climb a bit to where it worries me but I don't run and get any pills now and within about 2 hours it is back down to a good place.

Bonnie, I am struggling at the moment with very high morning glucose. I quit eating large amounts of carbs years ago but now it seems that proteins are causing high BS. This morning my fasting BS was 134 the highest it's ever been.

I am taking around 20 mg of 6% Lugol's at the moment, I was taking Iodoral but for some reason it caused reactions ( not detox ones ) that I don't feel when I take Lugol's. How fast did you raise you dose? I'd love for my BS to go down and to get rid of the insulin resistance.

Bonnie, he made it himself and said it came out to 6%. He's a math man so I'm sure he did this correctly. Wow, great news for you. I know Iodine does a lot of great things but to help you in such a short time is encouraging for me. I see myself having poor digestion as well, I quit yogurt and cream today, I only had a small portion of yogurt and some in my coffee for the last three days and I think the dairy caused me major problems so I stopped it altogether. I have done liver cleanses and take liver supplements too. Thanks for the info. I feel there is hope after all.LouiseOn Nov 9, 2011, at 2:13 PM, Bonnie Cole wrote:

[Guest guest]

: Lugol's 5% (assuming a roughly standard drop size, i.e. 20 drops per

ml) yields 6.25 mg per drop of combined iodine and iodide; if, in fact, you are

using a 7% concentration, the combined iodine/iodide yield per drop would be

somewhere close to 8.75 mg, not 3.4 mg. A 7% solution is a stronger

concentration than 5%, so if you are satisfied that your seller has provided an

accurate statement of strength, the only remaining variable is the size of the

droplet your dropper produces. If you are using a dropper that generates a

smaller droplet you may be dosing accurately despite misunderstanding the

concentration issue, but if your dropper generates a standard drop it appears

you may have been taking rather more than you thought you were.

Let me know if further information might be helpful. Regards, Megaera

Lugol's 5% is 6.25 mg of Iodine and Iodide per drop. 6.25 x 12 equals 75 mgs.

Are you sure what you have is actually 7%?

I don't know if u are wrong. I know that 7% is 34.0 mg. times that by 15 drops is 47.60 mg. That is why I'm asking. It took me awhile to figure out my dose and I was pretty satisfied with that but upon reading what you wrote now I am questioning my math. on;t think your drop at 5% 12 drop can equal 75mg.

[Guest guest]

Hi Akiba: You're reasonably close -- and 2% Lugol's being less concentrated

gives a margin for error. If your dropper gives a standard size droplet the

combined iodine/iodide content in the drop will be about 2.5 mg, with a bit of

wiggle room either way. Your estimate of 22mg is probably pretty fair, possibly

a bit low but not a crisis issue.

Me messed up that e-mail but good. 3.40mg per drop at 7%. 3.40 times 15 equals 47.60 mg.I think my math is right but I also could be wrong.

Okay, since I've gone on Lugol's 7 % I'm confused after reading Bonnie's post. At 7% it is 3.40mg. I need 15 drops to get at 47.60mg. How can 12 drops of 5% be at 75mg?I rechecked my math on this.Can someone correct me or maybe I am right on with what I am taking and the amount and Bonnie is not taking as much as she thinks she is taking.

Hi Louise:

While I was at 20 mg. per day of Lugol's Liquid of 5% (I never heard of 6%), NOTHING happened, except my digestion started to improve. I have Gastroparesis and nothing is moving out of the stomach for up to 20 hours. That is how long it takes to digest a meal, so I had SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) but didn't know it. I'm still learning about this terrible affliction that a lot of Diabetics have.

When I reached 50 mg. by increasing one more drop each week (and it took 8 weeks to reach 8 drops daily) once I got to that point, my Blood Sugar had gone TOO LOW a few times, while taking Metformin, so I gradually weaned myself off that drug, which I have since learned damages the Kidneys.

I was still continuing to increase my dose each week and am now at 12 drops (75 mg.) per day. I have been sitting at 75 mg. now for a month. My Blood Sugar still amazes me each time I take it. I've tried eating chocolates which I really missed this past 13 years and had to deprive myself of a lot of good things. I couldn't even eat a whole potato, now I can eat 2 if I want to.

My blood sugar will climb a bit to where it worries me but I don't run and get any pills now and within about 2 hours it is back down to a good place.

Bonnie, I am struggling at the moment with very high morning glucose. I quit eating large amounts of carbs years ago but now it seems that proteins are causing high BS. This morning my fasting BS was 134 the highest it's ever been.

I am taking around 20 mg of 6% Lugol's at the moment, I was taking Iodoral but for some reason it caused reactions ( not detox ones ) that I don't feel when I take Lugol's. How fast did you raise you dose? I'd love for my BS to go down and to get rid of the insulin resistance.

: Okay, we have confusion somewhere -- we just need to sort it out.

First, we'll take it for granted that you have a 7% solution; this is stronger

than 5%, more solid ingredients and less water, so normally we'd expect you to

be dosing in lower drop numbers due to the higher concentration. When you

looked up what the per-drop mineral content would be, where did you go, and did

they specify a droplet size? Frequently, sites will give information based on

lab equipment because it gives precise results; the problem is that lab drop

formers can generate small drops, much smaller than the standard eyedropper

droplet. For example, the drop size might have been described as 60 gtt/ml...

do you recall any such specification?

Bonnie,

Does the 75 mg of lugol's you are taking not cause hyperthyroidism?

Thanks.

[Guest guest]

Bonnie..will you now stay @ 75 mg? I just upped to 75 after years of 50 mg. I had body aches across my back and neck which I figured just goes with aging, completely disappear!! I even tested it to see if it could possibly be the iodine so I didn't take it yesterday and the aches came back. Amazing. Now I'm thinking in a few weeks I'll push to 100 and see if any other good things happen.
