Lugol's Iodine By Miss Thomas on Sep 14, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I first became familiar with Lugol's Iodine when I was searching online for a natural treatment to cure bacterial infections. I was unaware that this type of iodine could be taken internally to fight infections. I am a huge skeptic when it comes to trying natural remedies, since there is always a chance that I might not get the same results like other people.

You can imagine how surprised I was when this infection began to clear up. I wish I knew about this sooner, I would not have wasted money on other products that did not work. I think that the main reason why this worked so well for me was because I probably had an iodine deficiency. I read that a person can be more susceptible to infections if their iodine intake is low.

Lugol's iodine is one of the safest and one of the best folk remedies to fight infections and other health conditions that you may have. If you are taking this for the first time, it's best to start out with a small amount and gradually increase the dose while your body adjusts to the iodine. It's important to use this carefully, since you can never be sure how your body might react to certain products.
