 Very good productSep 04, 2008
By S. Mursch
My elderly husband (80 years) and I (72 years) recently started taking this iodine supplement after reading a book on the subject. My husband is sprinting better than before and thinks that he is less prone to weight gain than previously. I find that I have more energy and less craving for sweets. From what I read, most people have low iodine levels and require more that the daily recommendations, especially if they use Splenda and fluorinated water.

I have had thyroid tests that are in the low normal range for a long time. I haven't had more blood work done yet but I seem to have more energy and I'm feeling better overall.

Some unexpected benefitsDec 16, 2010
By Nunsuch

It took me a full year of Google searches and running into someone else who had the same problems before I figured out that most of my various annoying symptoms could be traced to a sluggish thyroid (acceptable lab results can be misleading). It never occurred to me that I could have an iodine deficiency in a developed country, and with the reasonable eating habits I have!
Making the long story short, I decided to experiment and have bought Iodoral about a month ago - and will be coming back for more for the rest of my life (or until US goes back to using iodine instead of bromine compounds in food).
It's been too short a time to see the full effects, but so far, the results have been nothing short of amazing!
-The same day I took my first pill and ever since, my energy levels came back to normal. I wake up early in the morning and am still active late in the evening. Before Iodoral, I couldn't drag myself out of the bed, and was unbearably exhausted by 8pm. I also can't wait to go for a walk or do some exercise.
-My hairdresser have commented that she sees a lot of new hair growth. (My hair has been thinning for a couple of years - I thought it was pre-menopause.)
-My mood has improved tremendously. I'm under a lot of stress, and had thought that my mild (unmedicated) depression is a natural consequence. Apparently, it's not :-).
Even some of the symptoms that should have nothing to do with Iodine have improved:
-I have gall stones, and have been experiencing digestive problems I thought connected to it for over a year. Within a few days of taking Iodoral, my digestion is back to its happy normal. Even my gall bladder is not acting up so much any more (much less pain and discomfort).
-The hot flashes I've resigned myself to as a part of pre-menopause problems are all but gone. When one happens (rarely), it's much milder. PMS mood changes are also barely noticeable now.
Note: I take one pill in the morning. After I took the first one, I experienced some of the side-effects of mild iodine overdose - strange taste, somewhat rapid heartbeat and mild pain in thyroid, but none of this repeated down the line. Guess my body just needed to adjust. I always take it in the morning, as I get too "hyper" to sleep if I do it in the evening.
I can't recommend Iodoral enough!

Good item! Ignore the propaganda!Aug 04, 2010
By S. Dobozi
"as executor"
Pro's and Con's:
Many people I have ordered this item for, have reported positive effects. A negative effect one can experience, is with immediate, high-dose, several-tablets-a-day intake; *not* due to the iodine directly. Reactions are due to one's own high level of toxicity; and for that I refer to studies from doctors Guy Abraham and David Brownstein.
It is proved [through lab results of thousands of people] when one takes iodine in 25mg+/day quantities, flushing the built-up heavier halides from organs and other tissue occurs, halogens which have a higher atomic weight, such as bromide. The circulating halogens in the blood-stream, mostly bromides, until removed by the kidneys, are the source of (negative) side-effects; *not* the iodine.
These days people, especially north americans, have so many of the toxic halides absorbed, that with immediate high doses, some undesirable short-term results can happen:
[although the evidence suggestions too-much-at-once is not what happened with the 'one-horse' negative reviewer above. Instead, I firmly believe that review is propaganda. Note: there are no other reviews by that reviewer, and the text reads like baseless claims.]
Through so-called 'flame retardant' in clothing, mattresses and furniture; through use of bromides in manufacture of sodas and breads and other foods (replacing iodine since the 1960's), and heavy use of fluoride in water systems and 'oral care', along with incorrect use of chlorine/chlorides in water 'treatment', (forming chloroform when mixed with the chemically-organic nutrients in the water), most people in the situation have a body flooded with toxic halides. The tiny amount of iodine, usually 0.050mg, received through diet, simply is not detectable as present in the body usually, wherein healthy levels of reserve in adults are reported to be 1500mg.
By comparison, for those with a healthy diet, people eating japan-grown foods, from traditional farming, get an average of 13mg a day, 260x more. Some is from farmers using seaweed in compost. For people on japan, they do not have fluoridated and chlorinated water to compete with iodine absorption.
Keep the scientific facts in mind and heart, when comparing it to the propaganda.
