Why is all the advertising for Iodine primarily geared for women. Iodoral for men?

I don't know actually but I am a woman and have used the blue bottles, or men's formula, for years. These are all good products.

I specialize in thyroid disease and iodine deficiency. Every one of my patients with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis takes 12.5 mg of Iodoral with 200 micrograms of selenium daily. Hashimoto's is the number one cause of hypothyroidism in the US followed by iodine deficiency.

It's not for a specific gender, men or women can use it! I am a female and use this daily, it works great!

I was not aware that the product may be for women only. I have been taking it for years and it seems to me that my condition (leakage) is somewhat better as a result.You may want to contact Life Extension for further assistance.

While I'm not a doctor, I'd think this product would work on men, too. I didn't see anything on the box that said it was strictly for women. Vericose veins don't apply to just women, so it might be worth a try.

I have hashimotos and my 24 hour iodine urine test came back low in iodine. My doctor has me on a low dose daily because of breast and ovary pain. Most breast pain is due to low iodine levels.

A quick comparison of the ingredients on the man's and woman's boxes may shed some light on why there are two products. Recent 60-Minutes shows had explained that dosages for women and men may actually differ for sleeping pills and other medications. I would tread carefully. I really don't know if the pricing is due to some additional processing or just a marketing ploy.

It doesn't' state that on the bottle. But this is a good iodine solution and it works!!!!!

The product does not distinguish the amount difference. It only shows 12.5mg made up of iodine and iodides.

I do not see iodine listed on the label. I would recommend getting in touch with the manufacturer for more details.

To give you a more detailed answer to your question, check out the article written recently by Dr. Edward Group on the subject --&gt; http://www.lewrockwell.com/2014/01/edward-group/why-nascent-iodine/

It's just one product. Not a different one for men or women. Not sure why the title says unisex other than to let people know this one product can be used by both men and women

As a lay person I would not make a recommendation either way as to the use of Iodoral for hashimotos. I just use it as an added boost to my metabolism and it seems to work for me.

I think it's marketed towards women but I don't see any reason why men can't use it. It's just wax on skin.

First off I am not the manufacturer or the seller.Second, if you read the label, it does not just say "no iron" it clearly says "NO ADDED IRON". So if you need additional iron in your diet this isn't for you. Women normally need additional iron in their diet, men do not.So this product works better as a male dietary supplement than it does for a woman.

All the products are ok for women to use. That's pretty general right? Even testosterone, if that was your thing. But that shouldn't be any women's thing.This product may be too much in terms of unnecessary ingredients for what you need. If women need energy and motivation, they may not beneift from the products "pump" ingredients.This is what gives some guys that "bowed" up feeling to motivate them to lift heavy weights, women may not need that and for guys, many of us, these products are good and bad.Some of them make us loose. I'll leave you with that to figure out if it affects you, but needless to say "loose" not in terms of any social interaction situations. :) All the products are ok for women to use.
