Is it true the iodine loses it's nascient nature when mixed with water after 2-3 hours? Why is this in purified water?

As it's derived from kelp, it either has iodine, which is good, or bromine, which isn't. If you asre looking for a supplement rich in iodine, may I suggest iodine in liquid form.

All bottles of iodine tablets have a shelf life of 3-5 years depending on the brand. Once opened, it's 6 months. So I'd think that once you used the straw once, the iodine would be good for 6 months before going bad. That's what I've found after researching this for the last hour! Keep an eye on how much iodine is left because it's critical to kill the nasties. Otherwise, the small ones will go right through the filter.

That is what I did. I mixed it 50/50 with purified water.Since I am on a drilled water well, I boiled the water. Then let it cool, (but not cold). Put in an equal amount of flakes. Stirred them until the flakes were dissolved.Then put it into a spray bottle... It worked out OK. (No clogged sprayer like I thought might would happen).

I've read that in the event of fallout that water should be treated with bleach and potassium iodide. If possible I would use a combination of the three. When my stored water runs out I would treat and filter collected water as much as I could. Its a good question and you motivated me to research it more.

I timed it today and it was a little over 6 hours. It could have something to do with humidity or maybe someone else put in a little more water? I don't know. I had never timed it before but I know from the beginning it was more than 4 hours.

Not that I have noticed. It is just swallowed and forgotten. Lyn-Genet Recitas, author and nutritionist of the book THE PLAN, recommends this company as one of the best for keeping their products pure from harvest to the bottling. It is a good source of iodine which most of us are deficient of. I got it after reading her book and have kept it up for 9 mos. now. The taste or after taste has never been a factor for me. go for it!

I have not used iosol personally so i can't say yes or no. I have never heard of it befote either. Get the books about iodine from Dr mark sircus or dave brownstine. Lugols iodine has been in use for around 200 years and is well proven. Nascent is said to be the easiest for your body to make use of. Go on YouTube and search for 73leo73 for a couple of videos about different iodine formulas.

The water does have a slight iodine taste. At least it's wet. When using it in dehydrated food and coffee I have noticed no problem with taste. I filter my water first, then ad the tablets. I don't want a case of giardia in the back country.

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

I don't know precisely. My best guess is that it would be many years.. I would expect the filtering material to last "indefinitely"; how long will the plastic hold up (bouncing around your bag or whatever)?; how long will the iodine remain active?Best wishes!!

While iodine is a very important nutrient, its presence in salt is of little significance. Many people are unaware that iodine and chlorine compete for absorption, and considering salt is 45-49+% chlorine atoms (depending on unrefined vs. refined) and &lt;0.01% iodine atoms, iodine in salt is *very* poorly absorbed (&lt;10% absorption of the already minuscule amount present). It is better to obtain iodine from other sources with higher iodine:chlorine ratios, or to supplement with Lugol's or potassium iodide.

The only answer I can give you is what it says on package. 100% DV of iodine. Have no idea what DV is.

I used regular iodine on my arm to check for a deficiency. I never used this product I threw it out because they didn't provide instructions.

Yes it takes about 30 sec. and it dissolves. I used one packet for a gal. of water.

Here's a good link that might answer your questions. It's just iodine, but its form aids absorption. http://www.globalhealingcenter.com/natural-health/what-is-nascent-iodine/

No. It contains all natural trace elements that our bodies deprive since they are not in most foods. Iodine was added to salt years ago as a measure the government tried knowing we are Iodine deficient. It is not near enough. All they needed to do was have doctors perform simple iodine tests and have people take Iodine. The government only cares about patented items like prescriptions to make them money so they never opened up. Now, they wait and prescribe drugs instead of simple homeopathic Iodine. Look for Lugol's Iodine in a dropper. There is 2% or %5. I use 2% and currently add 6 drops to my coffee every morning. It is not noticable in coffee but without a strong drink, it is nasty awful tasting. Good luck.
