Product Review
Lugols Iodine or Lugols solution was first developed by the French physician, Jean Lugol, in 1829. It is a transparent brown liquid consisting of 10 parts potassium iodide (K1) to 5 parts iodine to 85 parts of (distilled) water. It is an effective bactericide and fungicide and, in fact, was, for the better part of a century, a common antiseptic (though it has laboratory uses separate and apart from any medical application). Lugols and similar iodine solutions probably fell out of favor in the last half of the 20th century due to combination of economics and aesthetics: first, it is so cheap to make that it cannot compare to cleaner value-added antiseptics with more marketing muscle; and secondly, it will stain clothes and will even temporarily stain skin when used topically to treat a wound. The internal applications of various iodine solutions have been published and discussed for well over a century.
This solution is indicated for use to destroy vicious stomach bacteria, provide relief against bloating, indigestion, heartburn and even anxiety. It also destroys harmful bacteria and parasitic eggs. Its the solution that helps replenish the thyroid.
