I didn't do so well in chemistry in high school, but the Iodine research I've been doing in the past weeks has gotten me excited about it, so maybe I'll understand some or all of the papers.
One thing I'm noticing is that the Iodine (Magnascent) I'm painting on to my body seems to "count" toward the total amount I'm getting.
I seem to get an uncomfortable feeling in my thyroid area ("sore throat") when my body wants me to stop for a few days. I thought maybe I could get away with continuing to paint when I wasn't swallowing the drops, but my body seems to count all of it, whether it's painted on or swallowed.
