Brain Basics Ultra Iodine Supplement

I've been taking this product for abt 2 months now. I started out b/c I heard the 12.5mg dosage was helpful to restore stomach acid strength for optimal absorbtion of food/vitamins/minerals. Then a couple weeks ago I started watching videos abt iodine and our overall dificiency in the US. One video I saw by Dr. Brownstein, he recommended 25mg dosage for 'the average person' (double dosage of this product, 2 tablets). And you know, I've noticed differences since I've been doing double dosage, 25mg. I've always had cold feet. That has improved greatly--I dont need to wear socks to bed anymore to keep my feet warm. My skin also had dry spots at the base of my thumb, another on my index finger, my finger nuckles, both elbows and tragus (cartilege tab at entrance of ear canal). All of those super dry brittle skin issues are improving, oils & lotions never helped. I now have smooth elbows and other skin areas improved. I notice middle of the night bathroom trips are decreasing too. My evening energy level is improving as well, and less hair loss. So I have to say yes, this iodine product is worth it and I think a double dosage of 2 tablets (25mg) daily is optimal for best results. In Dr Brownstein's vid I think he also mentions iodine detox's the body of bromine and flouride. So you might experience some minor detox like symptoms when starting this. I started with 1/2 tab daily for a week when I first began, just to see how I tolerated it. I did okay and then increased to a whole tablet daily. In any event, I'm pleased with this product and will continue using it. I believe iodine deficiency is a very real issue for most people and this has helped me greatly.

It seems to be very good product I've been using it for a long time only issue I've ever had is with the delivery that's supposed to be delivered to the back door obviously no one ever reads this or looks the instructions on any of my stuff when I say it should come to the back door only second driveway

For those who have studied the research of Dr. Brownstein, this is a great way to bring up the iodine levels he says are low in 97% of all people due to soil depletion.

This is my first purchase of this supplement, and it seems perfectly fine. I've only been supplementing with this for a week; however, I might be noticing some improvements. I'm not feeling any worse. I seem to be thirstier than normal, which is probably a good thing.

I had been using a much higher priced equivalent that wasn’t moving my lab #’s so I started looking for & found this product. Having chronic low iodine levels I really noticed the difference within days of taking this as I had more consistent energy & started sleeping better throughout the night, also FINALLY solid lab results. Overall a better sense of well being. It’s a great price, smaller sized, easy to swallow supplement that works.

I been taken it now for a month and I don’t know if it really helps

This is a cheap product does not have the potency… But was a very cheap price… Next time I will go with another brand that I trust.

I began taking iodine b/c my toe nails began looking really bad. I started w/ a different 1000mcg (1mg) supplement that was just kelp (bladderwrack) in a capsule, and my toe nails began growing back normally. My doc thought that I might have toe nail fungus, but fungal medicine did not help. I’m guessing my thyroid was in need of more iodine. I don’t salt my food normally, so I wasn’t even getting the minimum. Anyhow, upon starting the iodine I have noticed that I sleep better, and can regulate my temperature better. Then, after reading up, I decided to do a higher dose. These tablets so far work and cause no side effects for me.
