The supplement Iodoral was originally intended to provide additional iodine to the thyroid is gland.There lot of nonsense being written about iodine and it is difficult to sort everything. This page is about the experiences of people who take Iodoral a supplement.Iodine Iodine is an essential element. Although its main function is the production of thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland, other organs in the body need iodine to function normally.

I’m 99.99% positive that Iodoral is causing my acne. I never put two and two together until I ran out and just didn’t re-order for awhile and then my skin cleared up. Once I got back on Iodoral my acne flared back up.
Acne is a possible side effect of iodine.
However, I would wonder if there are other problems occurring it the body that contributes to the occurrence of acne once iodine is added. If these other problems are addressed, then perhaps iodine would not cause acne.

I don’t see why these formulations have both iodine and iodide.
Lugol’s was probably developed as a multipurpose formula that could
be used either as a disinfectant or iodine supliment.
The iodine in seaweed that the Japanese eat must be in the iodide form. (sodium iodide).
Iodine (the element) is useful as a topical disinfectant but if applied to the skin
or taken orally probably kills some of our cells as well since it is a fairly strong oxidizer.
It seems that the risk of toxic effects as well as problems with killing helpful bacteria in the
intestine would be reduced by simply taking the iodide form.Different organs take different forms of iodine. This is why a combination of the two primary forms of iodine is useful.
