Formula Overview Iodine and potassium iodide in a liquid solution, equivalent to USP strength or higher, sourced from mined crystals from a 320 million year old natural brine deposit in the Western United States. A note from Evey Iodine is the rate-limiting nutrient for healthy thyroid function, and the thyroid sits at the metabolic center of nearly everything the body does. J.Crow's Lugol's Solution is the classic 1829 formulation, a liquid blend of elemental iodine and potassium iodide at the strength specified by the United States Pharmacopeia. What sets this formula apart is the source. The iodine is derived from mined crystals from a 320 million year old natural brine deposit two miles beneath the Western United States, one of the few places in the world where such deposits exist. It is not made from shellfish, and the water is distilled New Hampshire spring water. This is an everyday nutrition supplement. Iodine status is shaped by what shows up on the plate, and modern food patterns leave the average American well below historical intake levels, which is part of the deeper why behind treating iodine as a nutrient worth attending to rather than assuming it is covered. I generally suggest the labeled drop dose in water, alongside selenium and the other thyroid cofactors.
