[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 235404, member: 15043"] I’ve been researching iodine on and off for years now, and have also been researching iodine like crazy recently. I thought for a while that 1-3mg was a good dose long term, and it may well be, but through all my research and listening to top experts, and reading anecdotes, it seems like the sweetspot for most people, guys bad girls, might be a little higher at around 6.25mg-12.5mg. And tons of people in the iodine fb groups I’m a part of notice huge improvements when using doses much higher, in the 50mg-300mg range. I believe in balance with all things tho, and am a bit hesitant with using too high of doses with iodine. Don’t want it throwing anything else out of whack. I’ve used 50-100mg/ day before for a decent amount of time, and didn’t notice any negatives, but don’t think I noticed any positives either. I think this time around starting at 2.5mg and titrating up slowly to 12.5mg I noticed some benefits around the 6.25-10mg range. Nothing crazy, just have been getting to bed super super late for a while now, and usually I’d be wrecked after getting so little sleep, and my mood would definitely be off, but on iodine I feel like im doing a lot better than I should be. Like before iodine I’d be irritable and my mood wouldn’t be great after not getting enough sleep, but on the iodine my mood is pretty stable and I don’t feel as bad as I probably should. Idk, hard to explain subtle personality and mood differences when using things, but I’m very in tune with myself, and I feel like I can feel it doing something positive. Other than that I just want it to help things in the background without me even noticing. So not disappointed if I don’t notice much from taking it. Just know that it’s most likely doing good things. So ur saying that ur thinking of switching from lugol’s to some other formulation of iodine? Lugol’s obv has potassium iodide in it, so why switch? Are u saying u want something with potassium iodide only? And no, not on anything for my thyroid atm. Just iodine [/QUOTE]
