Wakame is another type of brown seaweed that is slightly sweet in flavor. It is commonly used to make miso soup.

Anyone who avoids fish and/or dairy products (e.g. due to allergy or intolerance) could be at risk of iodine deficiency. Therefore, vegetarians and particularly vegans, are at risk of iodine deficiency. As there are few plant-based sources of iodine, it may be necessary to consider a suitable iodine-containing supplement (see below).Low intake of iodine during pregnancy may affect development of the baby’s brain. This could have consequences in later life such as lower IQ or reduced reading ability.

In a study that surveyed seaweed samples from various Asian countries for their iodine content, it was found that kombu kelp contains, by far, the highest amount of iodine compared to other species of seaweed ( 5). The amount of iodine in milk and dairy differs greatly based on the iodine content in the cattle feed and the use of iodine-containing disinfectants during milking ( 13). We can thank Napoleon for the discovery of iodine. His role was indirect, though. You may remember that Napoleon was ambitious. He wanted to dominate Europe. The Napoleonic wars lasted, off and on, from 1803 until 1815. The French were fighting Britain, Sweden, Russia, Naples, Prussia, Sicily, Austria, Portugal, Spain and a few countries we have probably forgotten. Eveleigh, E., L. Coneyworth, M. Zhou, H. Burdett, J. Malla, V. H. Nguyen and S. Welham (2022). "Vegans and vegetarians living in Nottingham (UK) continue to be at risk of iodine deficiency." Br J Nutr: 1-46. The halogens darken in colour as the group is descended: fluorine is a very pale yellow, chlorine is greenish-yellow, bromine is reddish-brown, and iodine is violet.I used it five times a week starting out. After the nail was once again normal, I started using it about once a week for maintenance and prevention. I don’t want ugly toenails ever again. Iodine supplements can interact with certain blood pressure medications and diuretics, including lisinopril, spironolactone, and amiloride, causing a dangerous buildup of potassium in the blood called hyperkalemia. I had to live with not-so-pretty nails for a long twelve months – but it was WELL worth it. A full year later…I now have TEN HEALTHY TOE NAILS and could not be more pleased with the results!” CR says that once a day is necessary for treating nail fungus:

Zimmermann, M. and F. Delange (2004). "Iodine supplementation of pregnant women in Europe: a review and recommendations." Eur J Clin Nutr 58(7): 979-984. Nail fungus is one of those conditions that usually trouble patients (or possibly their spouses) more than they bother doctors. Before there were modern medicines for treating nail fungus, doctors often advised most patients simply to live with it as a cosmetic problem. Now there are quite a few pricey prescriptions for nail fungus including efinaconazole ( Jublia) or tavaborole ( Kerydin), but the cure rate is not tremendously impressive on any of them. Treating nail fungus with inexpensive home remedies can be surprisingly effective. Treating Nail Fungus with Home Remedies:

High strength

It meant that I could not fake nice nails by sanding then polishing. I had to cut away as much of the nail as I could, and leave unpolished, AND expose my nails for others to see. (Opened toed sandals help them get fresh air.) Cottage cheese is one of the best sources of iodine. One cup of cottage cheese provides 65 mcg, while one ounce of cheddar cheese provides about 12 mcg ( 15). Iodine is an essential trace mineral not made by the body so must be obtained by food or supplements. It is found naturally in some foods and is added to supplements and some salt seasonings. Iodine is needed to make the thyroid hormones thyroxine and triiodothyronine, which assist with the creation of proteins and enzyme activity, as well as regulating normal metabolism. Without enough iodine, these thyroid hormones do not work properly and can lead to an under-active or overactive thyroid gland, causing the medical conditions of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism with various negative side effects in the body.

Try applying iodine directly to toes once a day. Only thing that worked for my husband.” Ron says he sees results after a month:In early periodic tables, iodine was often given the symbol J, for Jod, its name in German. [20] Properties [ edit ] Iodine vapour in a flask. Given the large size of the iodide anion and iodine's weak oxidising power, high oxidation states are difficult to achieve in binary iodides, the maximum known being in the pentaiodides of niobium, tantalum, and protactinium. Iodides can be made by reaction of an element or its oxide, hydroxide, or carbonate with hydroiodic acid, and then dehydrated by mildly high temperatures combined with either low pressure or anhydrous hydrogen iodide gas. These methods work best when the iodide product is stable to hydrolysis. Other syntheses include high-temperature oxidative iodination of the element with iodine or hydrogen iodide, high-temperature iodination of a metal oxide or other halide by iodine, a volatile metal halide, carbon tetraiodide, or an organic iodide. For example, molybdenum(IV) oxide reacts with aluminium(III) iodide at 230°C to give molybdenum(II) iodide. An example involving halogen exchange is given below, involving the reaction of tantalum(V) chloride with excess aluminium(III) iodide at 400°C to give tantalum(V) iodide: [55] 3 TaCl 5 + 5 AlI 3 ( excess ) ⟶ 3 TaI 5 + 5 AlCl 3 {\displaystyle {\ce {3TaCl5 + {\underset {(excess)}{5AlI3}}-> 3TaI5 + 5AlCl3}}} I was careful to apply to all areas of the nail – and underneath what nails pieces were there. Some additional tips: file, scrub, and clip on and around the nail to get as much ‘debris’ away and allow the medicine to work.
