I started with 2%, 1 drop a day for 3 days then I increased to 2 drops a day. The increase caused me headache, gut cramps, and felt hot and feverish, had insomnia. So I went back to 1 drop a day and have stayed there with no issues. The dose will be different for everyone.
Hello. One of the better vids I’ve found explaining dosage. Should the 2% be taken daily? I’m an active 270lb athlete. I’ve been doing double drops daily for a week. Couple bouts of the runs, unusually, peeing a lot with a sweet odor and i had a headache last night. I read and assumed that this could be die off or just an avalanche of displaced flori, bromi, perc, etc.. Any advice or hints that you could offer? I am a healthy person who maintains an animal based diet.i have an A1c of 4.6 so the sweet pee is a bit interesting. Could this be me passing halides?
I don't think it's necessary to take Lugol's daily. At that weight, I would take roughly 25mg total per week as a maintenance dosage (spread into two separate dosages on two different days of the week). It's not dangerous to take more though, you can take a lot more, I just don't think it's required to reap the major benefits. The symptoms you described could be detox as Lugol's displaces heavy metals and unwanted bacteria stored in the body. Your body is finally expelling that into the urine, most notably glucose, hence the sweet smell. I would get that checked out though and see if there are any underlying blood sugar problems present if that persists.
I haven't decide if I want to just take 1 drop a day for 5 days or just do 5 drops for Monday and Friday. I couldn't find the 5% on amazon so I just got the 2% for now. I am over 150lbs as well so I will make sure its 25mg a week. If there is no pros or cons to it I guess I'll figure out which way be best. I mean doing it everyday would probably build some muscle memory not to forget it, I feel like if I space it out I might forget sometimes lol
Great video. Just a quick note, when I try to click on the “more” in the description, because of how the link is right next to it, it won’t expend the description as the link overrides it and only gives me to option to open it. Hope that make sense 😊
This video and associated article has been largely shadow banned and toyed with in several ways since its publication.. Here is the description : J. Crow's Lugol's Iodine 5%: www.jcrowsllc.com/?aff=355 Folk Medicine by Dr. Jarvis: www.jcrowsllc.com/collections... Lugol's iodine undoubtedly has a variety of health benefits, but there are conflicting opinions as to how to actually use it for health maintenance and disease prevention. Dr. Jarvis' recommendations: If you are over 150 pounds, 25mg per week total. If you are under 150 pounds, 12.5 mg per week total. Take in a glass of water with two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar (honey can be added if desired) If you are going through a period of stress, take that weight-dependent dosage once per day until it passes.

Thank you for uploading this informative video. Would you know of a source or share a link were it proves Lugol's Iodine functions as a safe chelator against Mercury? Also, is 1 drop(12.5mg) of 5% solution in 1/2 cup(120ml) of distilled water taken twice a week on an empty stomach safe yet effective?
Dr. Brownstein is going to be your best source. I would suggest reading his work. I'm probably not allowed to say anything (especially this) is safe and effective, so I will let you read between the lines. :) btw 2 drops of 5% is 12.5mg. 1 drop is 6.25mg
Thank you for this video very informative. I bought 2% of this brand today, but I don't want to use it wrong. You calculated for the 5% form in the video. I'm 154 pounds, would it be okay to take 2 drops 2 times a week? thank you very much
Thank you very much for the video I have a question: I have Hashimoto's immune hypothyroidism and I would like to know how to take the lugol and if it will be beneficial for the thyroid. I sense it is going to be good but I want a trusted opinion. Thank you very much for everything
Iodine usage for Hashimoto's is a controversial subject, but I can't stress enough how important is to be skeptical of "doctors" who have poor critical thinking abilities and jump on bandwagons (as in, they just say what their authoritative peers say to not put their license or reputation in jeopardy). I'm not a medical expert and don't have direct experience treating anyone as I'm not qualified to do so, but I can say that I would agree with this guy :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZTd1-3QKBC8.html. Having said that, I would recommend doing your own research. There are a lot of studies out there. Also check and see who the studies are funded by.
Vitamin D3 and Selenium are also important, as well as a good diet, CBD, DHEA can help..Lowering inflammation and improving antioxidant status are also crucial.
Thank you for the video. Can it be used topically to heal chronically inflamed skin? The inflammation is not bacterial, it's immunological. Or will it permanently stain the skin?
Yes, it does not permanently stain (typically goes away within several minutes - the quicker it's absorbed, the more deficient you are), and can be applied applied topically.
Thank you for these valuable information. I have a benin 3.2 cm thyroid nodule and a small thyroid goiter on the right side. My blood work is ok regarding thyroid. I have the Lugol's iodine from jcrows but 2% only. Do you think that iodine supplement can help shrinking the nodule and goiter?
2% is still fine and would probably help, although I don't have direct experience with this.. This video is mostly about iodine for health maintenance. Higher dosages may be required for a nodule, which means you'd want to take companion nutrients (selenium, b-vitamins, vit.C, magnesium.) The best of course is to work with a practitioner who does have experience treating patients with iodine.
I would suggest consulting a specialist who knows how to use iodine for this specific issue (I can't say I do), but if I were to guess, 2 drops per day of Lugol's 5% (12.5 mg) in a glass of water is probably a good place to start. I've heard of chiropractors, for example, prescribing dosages like this for physiological balance. It can also be applied topically.
Is it beneficial to those of us who have had our thyroids killed off by 'doctors' who used a radioactive iodine treatment for hyperthyroidism? Guessing by how fast I crashed into hypothyroidism, I would say I have very little thyroid activity now and have been on levothyroxine for decades.
Hi! im concerned about heavy metals at the moment as im removing a tattoo. Im worried this might worsen my SD as i just learned the lymphatic system have to take charge of all the ink particles im removing from my skin. Do you think someone can detoxify properly from this type of procedure? I also have a little wound on my liver (caused by the hormonal birth control treatment they put me on at just 14 y/o...). I have just bought your SD Survival Guide and im hopeful, but also a little paranoid about not being able to detoxify properly.
First of all, don't focus on being 100% and perfectly "toxin-free", because it's not realistic, or even possible. Life itself is toxic in many ways, but the toxicity can be managed more effectively if the eliminatory organs are in good shape. You can't go back in time and not get the tattoo, or not take birth control, but you can improve the health of the organs so they can do their respective jobs better. You can help the lymphatic system with daily dry skin brushing, daily movement (even brisk walking), and raw beets (help with lymphatic drainage). Coffee enemas are also going to be vital, because they help heal the liver, along with lemon juice, and bitter medicinal teas such as dry bitter gourd (these are all explained in chapter 5). NAC supplement may also be especially good in your case for liver support, as well as B complex (both temporarily, not indefinitely), and saunas. Let me know if you have any follow up questions after reading the E-book decentpropaganda@gmail.com
Is there a better time of day to take it ? I was going to get the supplements another doctor suggested in her protocol ( selenium , unrefined salt , magnesium etc…) but I’m just going to start . I work an at home desk job , just concerns about detox symptoms disrupting my day . My order arrived and I’m ready to start ..
Magnesium is also a good idea (transdermal and/or bisyglycinate), as well as unrefined salt in the diet. Morning is probably best just in case it interferes with sleep.
Do you recommend consuming salt at all? Some say any salt, no matter what the quality is straight up bad for us and we should get the minerals we need from our food.
It's not been scientifically proven thus far, but we can use deductive reasoning and say it could definitely be a factor. Iodine is anti-carcinogenic in that it has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, pro-differentiating, and pro-apoptotic effects. The direct relation has mostly been proven in relation to breast and stomach cancers, but could be relevant for others. Higher rates of goiter (iodine deficiency) = higher rates of cancer mortality.
I just discovered your channel and had a question regarding dosage. I just received my 2% of Lugols, how many drops would you recommend for multinodular goiter? Do I mix it with water or just puts some drops on my tongue? With or without food? How often?
I would recommend working with a practitioner who is competent with how to go about using Lugol's for multinodular goiter. This video is mostly about maintenance dosages/prevention. Having said that - I would start slow (1-2 drops per day) and maybe work my way up to drinking 4-6 drops of 2% per day in a glass of water. With or without food doesn't matter.
I have ordered Lugols iodine 15% solution,but it writes on the bottle that containes 7.62mg combined iodine per drop,so my question is how many drops should i put in a glass of water in the morning.thank you
For health maintenance and disease prevention, you don't necessarily need to take it everyday. Start slow (one drop twice per week, for example) and pay attention to how you feel until you find a maintenance dosage that works for you. More of something good doesn't always mean better results.
Lugol's is no longer covered in medical schools as there are now highly profitable pharmaceutical products that can eliminate symptoms of health problems quickly without addressing the root cause of the health problem. Additionally, these products also create a variety of other health problems (just read the disclosed side effects of said products) so people are indefinitely dependent on them until they die because of them - as a result of the side effects and/or the fact that the symptoms of their diseases are masked/thrown under the rug.
4 drops per week of Lugol's 5%, spread into two dosages (so two drops per dosage) is a good maintenance dosage for most people. You can also refer to this article --> decentpropaganda.com/why-use-lugols-iodine-and-how-to-use-it/
If you're referring to Lugol's 5% solution, the short answer is 6.25mg. This is the direct quote from their website to elaborate further : "Calculating Number of MG's of Iodine and Iodide per Drop of Lugol's Solution 5%: Each VERTICAL "metric" drop (= 1/20ml) is approximately 2.5 mg of iodine and 5mg of potassium iodide. The Iodide portion of Potassium Iodide is about 75% so that is 3.75mg. Therefore the total Iodine plus Iodide is 2.5 + 3.75 = 6.25mg and 2 drops is about 12.50 mg's of iodine/iodide (5.0 mg iodine, 7.50 mg iodide"
@@v1ktorr124 hi I only take the drops. I started with 1 drop fir 5 days, then 2 drops fir 5 days till I got to 20. Yes did feel a little off when the toxin went through my system again. If you take it slowly it's not to bad.
