Why Iodine is Important
Iodine is detected in every organ and tissue in the body. It is found in high levels in the thyroid gland, liver, lung, heart, and adrenal glands. It is found in the highest concentrations in fat and muscle tissue. It is depleted out of the thyroid gland and other tissues when thyroid hormone medications are prescribed. Iodine has been considered so important that up until 20 years ago, it had been routinely added to bread as a supplement. Now because of politics and fear of Iodine, the thyroid-toxin bromine has taken its place as a bread supplement. And in the past 20 years there has been an increased prevalence of obesity, diabetes, and hypertension, as well as more thyroid and breast cancers.Directions

15/11/2024, By AntFriends BEWARE!
1 drop of 5% Lugol's iodine contains over 6000µg of iodine. That is considered to be toxic by some health practitioners. A safer daily dose is considered to be between 300µg to 500µg maximum. [1 to 2 drops in a teaspoon (5ml) of pure water, and taking a drop or 2 of that dilution daily would be a safer recommendation.] Remember there are 1000µg (micrograms) in 1mg (milligram). Prolonged intake of high iodine doses will cause the thyroid to stop functioning. It is just as bad as insufficient doses. In both cases the result is hypothyroidism! The daily RDA is 150µg - which is very conservative. The above will be over 300% RDA. Friends, please, do your research. Be wise. Stay healthy.30/09/2024, By ChristineUsed it for 2 days and hubby wanted his Iodine tested as well.

Thank you also for your impressively swift and kind response.18/08/2022, By ashleyI bought a bottle and am iving it to the whole household after a test. It is astonishing how much more energy I have and I am on a 40day fast. This is definitely going to become a necessity in my home12/05/2022, By ShelleyYou cannot go wrong with Lugol's iodine. An absolute must-have especially to get rid of bromine. Remember to supplement with selenium when taking iodine. Love this product !07/12/2021, By EllanThis is my second time buying Lugol's Iodine. This time I bought 2 because it has been wonderful.07/12/2021, By EllanThis is my second time buying Lugol's Iodine. This time I bought 2 because it has been wonderful.08/09/2021, By TracyI always have this on hand for daily use (a drop or two in some water), for emergencies (cuts, threatening colds or flu) and also disaster readiness. It arrived from FTN properly packed to avoid breakage and was at my door quicker than I could have hoped for. Please first check that you don't have an allergy to any form of iodine.30/08/2021, By ccI love this product. Would definitely recommend. I also recommend reading The Iodine Crisis.03/04/2021, By LeonI am 67 years old and received radiotherapy for hyperthtroidism about twenty plus years ago. My life has been a nightmare ever since. I experienced body cramps daily and had no energy to perform even menial tasks. Since taking iodine in combination with selenium a mere two weeks ago I have evolved from a lethargic layabout into a sprightly workaholic with energy to spare. Cramps and shortness of breath are a thing of the past and my quality of life has improved in every respect.26/02/2021, By LiThis is a staple in my house. I “paint” it on my face and throat with a cotton swab at the first hint of a sinus/upper respiratory tract infection and it really has helped me. I pop a few drops in my bath if I feel thrush coming on and it really seems to help this too. An all-round superstar.25/02/2021, By JayI was a bit skeptical and worried about the taste but the taste is really not that bad in my opinion. So far so good!09/02/2021, By KateYou don’t need to consume a lot of this in a way. A little goes a long way22/01/2021, By StanThis product contains dangerously high amounts of iodine. Even one drop (5-6mg) exceeds normal daily safe limits for adults (1.1mg) 5-fold. Note that the recommended dose for adults is only 0.150mg per day!
The description mentions it is only to be used as directed by a medical practitioner, this is for good reason! Unfortunately, the description of the product is such that it is easy to miss, as many of the reviews show people are taking this without medical supervision.
Safe iodine levels from: https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Iodine-Consumer/08/01/2021, By Emma-JeanI love this, got it as a gift for a friend and she loves it too :)07/01/2021, By EricI find 2 drops daily of Lugol's Iodine works just as well as Iodoral tablets at a fraction of the price. My most noticeable improvements from Iodine supplementation were improvement in my energy levels and regeneration of hair growth especially my eyebrows and legs which had gone bald.
Take care not to spill Lugol's solution on your clothes because it stains.25/11/2020, By WWI can't stand the taste (not the fault of Lugol's) but it does seem to be working. Effective.23/11/2020, By MoniqueI always make sure i have iodine in our little household "pharmacy". Also useful to take when you feel a cold coming on, and even if you missed the beginnings of the cold, taking it during a cold helps to lessen the symptoms and the duration of the cold.26/10/2020, By ShereleA great strong iodine option! Take a few drops daily as I don't eat iodized salt. This is a great help to your thyroid. I haven't tried it topically yet but excited to!12/09/2020, By ThembelaIncreasedd my energy levels and it's easy as I take it with water, tea or juice.22/08/2020, By CharlesI only take one drop a day five days a week, but it became so part of my routine that I will not miss my Lugols water just before I leave for work. It has a good clean taste & it makes me feel a bit protected.28/06/2020, By ClaireAm trying this out to improve my thyroid function - will know more about how effective it has been in a few months!22/06/2020, By Mrs. EThis is my 3rd time ordering this product. Works very well for me.15/06/2020, By ToriVery happy with this product and have definitely seen a difference since I started using it.13/06/2020, By VonI was using medication for an underactive thyroid..which my dr gave WITHOUT A BLOOD TEST...when i complained of fatigue..dr just keeps increasing dosage...had tremors...excessive sweating and exhaustion..upon advice of an iridoligist had thyroid tested...it was normal but being overstimulated by meds...i stopped meds upon my dr's advice and started using kelp just to maintain thyroid health....i then discovered Lugol's iodine at Faithful to Nature and ordered a bottle...i add 3 drops to my water bottle every night...i have no tremors sweats and a while lot more energy and am reordering so my hubby can start using as he has an underactive thyroid and do not want him on meds. Super product!!!06/05/2020, By DaleneRead The Iodine Crisis by Lynne Farrow and understand and realize that you cannot be without Lugol's Iodine! It sorts out tummy bugs quickly as well as viruses causing colds and flu. Organs need iodine.24/04/2020, By AugustRoseThis product was recommended to me, and so thankful for that as I am very happy with it.31/03/2020, By ClaytenLugol's Iodine is if not one of the best things to have and take, it is essential to supplement with it, before antibiotics there was luglo's Iodine, its the only thing I know of that knocks fluoride and more out of you thyroid which is a very important organ to stay healthy. There is so much more on iodine, use it but safely more does not always mean better.30/03/2020, By AlouetteAmazing! No virus has been known to be resistant to iodine.27/12/2019, By VeganshmeganRecommended by my health practitioner and wow...I have energy again and the low mood has gone! Will continue for 6 months or so as per recommendation of doc.12/12/2019, By LaVital nutrient, fundamental to health and so happy I can easily get lugols from FTN!
Just ensure you follow the iodine protocol and build up slowly.12/11/2019, By MichI bought this for a friend who has really severe chronic sinusitis. It didn't help for this purpose. My friend does have quite hectic health issues though, so it could be that hehe20/09/2019, By NasI have just started using this product with one drop each day, need to increase it slowly and see results.17/06/2019, By RenI cannot live without this! Before I started dropping iodine into my tea each morning, I felt like a drip - immense fatigue, lack luster hair and uncomfortable hunger pangs. Now that I take iodine regularly my appetite has stabilized, immunity has increased, skin is glowing, hair shiny and my energy levels are up!
I will never go without again! I take mine in the morning with vanilla rooibos tea and selenium - works like a bomb (and doesn’t taste too bad). I recommend building up to 10 - 15 drops a day.12/05/2019, By AndreaGood for people who live in an area where seaweed, fish and seafood are not as common as in other parts of the world. The taste is not great, but with a lot of water it goes well. I am taking 5 drops a day, because I am already looking after my intake of iodine rich food.

https://www.thyroid.org/iodine-deficiency/24/04/2019, By NadiaGave some of mine to friends and now they want a bottle so this order was for them.

It has definitely boosted my immune system and energy levels. Taking at a dose of 8-10 drops per day.05/11/2018, By NicolaNot sure about this yet. Was taking 1 drop a day for the first week but made me feel very tired. Unsure about the dosage and how to take it, will have to do some more research and update review.16/10/2018, By TGood for people with iodine deficiency, but be careful with the dose! Follow iodine protocol24/09/2018, By FlorenceThis is amazing. I have been taking it for about 2 months now and have noticed awesome benefits. I however ended up with gastric ulcers so if you plan to take it internally please be cautious. I'm looking at topical applications because I believe we all need this.18/09/2018, By DellaWow, instant effect. On only one drop per day the dreadful fatigue was better. (Underactive thyroid) I read that it can be taken in a glass of water with half a teaspoon of Apple Cider Vinegar while eating. Start with one drop and very gradualy increase to 6 or 8. Awesome service FN.12/09/2018, By tk_zaA trustworthy Lugol's Iodine is hard to find. I love that this product is well labelled so that one knows the percentage to work out the correct dosage. So glad I found this at F2N! :)02/09/2018, By ChantalLugol's is a highly recommended brand but difficult to find until I discovered Faithful to Nature - thank you for providing us a channel with excellent service to access excellent products.17/07/2018, By NicoleI'm finally experiencing a marked improvement in energy levels after years of being fatigued. I've also been struggling with my hormones recently due to stopping the contraceptive pill, and I feel this is helping with my mood swings and all round positivity. *Watch out for taking too much - this happened once and I had a rash and bumps all over my body the next day.21/06/2018, By HeleneAlthough the taste is something to get used to, you need so little that it is swallowed of easily and definetly worth the effort!05/06/2018, By EstelleBought this for my daughter who suffers from extreme fatigue. She immediately felt much better after just the first dose!29/05/2018, By CarolSo happy you stock Lugols. I’m buying again. Best “medicine” ever.
I’m off all other thyroid medicine. I only use Lugols iodine now. If I don’t take it in the morning, I need a nap in the afternoons.28/05/2018, By CandiceCan see improvement on my health great product will buy again .quick delivery.
18/05/2018, By LeandaThanks so much team for stocking this product - my grandfather swears by it & has used it to self treat the onset of arthritis...he is 88 yrs old & going strong!
Couldn't find anyone stocking it anywhere until I found you - THANK YOU!!17/04/2018, By NadiaI'm slowly increasing my dosage and it seems to be helping the fatigue. Direct application has helped a boil/cyst thing that I've struggled with for a very long time. Interested to see how my health improves as I slowly raise the dosage (only on 2 drops a day at the moment started with just 1).04/04/2018, By DipsThe description for this product says "highly useful addition to your home's medicine cabinet". That is wrong wrong wrong. Iodine is detected in every cell in the body. That makes it "a necessary/essential nutrient in your diet". Read the book THE IODINE CRISIS - by Lynne Farrow. I am slowly increasing my intake (daily maintenance dose for adults is 8 drops) - i am currently on 4 drops per day. It really helps with my fatigue. On the days I forget to take it i feel that I really need an afternoon nap, but not when I take my Lugol's.16/03/2018, By ChristieneExcellent Product! I use it for under active thyroid - 8-10 drops in 250ml water in the morning + Selenium + Zinc.
ps.Every 17 min all your blood circulate through your Thyroid to flush toxins exct. Very important for optimal thyroid health in order to eliminate foreign pathogens in the body. (Cracked heels is also an indication that your body lack Iodene.)25/01/2018, By Monze Consultants CC - VAT NR 4810141152Read The Iodine Crisis by Lynne Farrow and don't be without Lugol's Iodine!23/01/2018, By BeverleyRecommended in the book The Iodine Crisis by Lynne Farrow
Great book, a must read!
Iodine a necessary supplement29/12/2017, By CarolIt has helped with my under active thyroid. It is natural & I now have far more energy. I love this product.15/09/2017, By ChrisThis stuff is brilliant. Every time my family gets flu symptoms or injures themselves, Lugols is the first thing I reach for!!28/08/2017, By DMWith most people having iodine deficiency, everyone needs Lugols in their home. I recommend to research everything about iodine and its necessities.01/08/2017, By EHave under active thyroid, and read that Lugol's is the best to use.
Thank you for the quick delivery and the personal message on the invoice.30/06/2017, By KerryAlmost everyone has an iodine deficiency and I find Lugols the very best for applying topically!02/08/2016, By RozaliaIm starting iodine protocol according Dr. Brownsteins book. There are many illneses which can be treated by iodine with good results. See how itll work for me21/07/2016, By JApply one drop of iodine to your skin daily. Use your stomach or upper thighs where the orange stains won be visible. The quicker it absorbs. the greater your iodine deficiency.05/04/2016, By JennyI have purchased Lugols because I lack iodine and have thyroid issues. However, no where does it say how many drops I need to take a day? Ive read up on iodine and it seems you can overdose on it. So if anyone can give me some insight to dosage I would really appreciate it.05/04/2016, By LungisaJust make your own research on this. If you can read Dr. Brownstein book IODINE: WHY YOU NEED IT, WHY YOU CANT LIVE WITHOUT IT
You will be surprised how many illnesses are linked to iodine deficiency. Even more mind-blogging is the number of people that are iodine deficient. The numbers are shocking and chances are you are. However, do your own research.
Personally I can not live without it.16/01/2014, By PamI have been battling Chronic Lyme disease (undiagnosed for 30 years) but since using the Iodine, I am feeling a marked improvement after 4 years of virtually no improvement.04/06/2011, By JunitaThe iodine protocol has proven really amazing to me, my husband and our 8 year old daughter. On that note, just a little bit of useful information (I hope) that can maybe help you when clients encounter detox and want to quit organic products. I think a lot of people experience detox symptoms and then run away from organic products, thinking they are allergic to it.
