It costs about 25 US cents per day, compared to four US cents per day for Lugol's. Even for people who need two or even four times this amount, Lugol's is a bargain.

What Lugol’s Can Do The most startling improvements I have observed were with victims of devastating depression. I have seen people turn their lives around after many years of "staring into space", which was the way they described their afflictions. All were hustled off to psychiatrists, who rubbished them for refusing Prozac, when all they needed was iodine. One woman told me she had been incapacitated for 12 years, went everywhere for help and took every blood test known to the profession. The only thing untested was her iodine level. She had spent a fortune and had lost 12 precious years of her life. After taking three drops of Lugol's in a glass of water once a day for three days, she reported to me that she was a "new woman". Because she didn't like to be dependent on medication, she tried several times to wean herself off Lugol's but slipped right back into severe depression. The last time we spoke, she told me she will never try that again!

This amount is the equivalent of two to six drops of Lugol's solution per day in a glass of water. (One drop of Lugol's contains 6.417 mg of elemental iodine.) For those who don't like the taste of Lugol's, a capsulated version is available with a doctor's prescription. It is called lodoral, and it contains the APRIL - MAY 2012 NEXUS ¢ 23 www.nexusmagazine.com
