Re: Iodine Tincture


Personally, I use OTC Iodine tincture for just about everything, but I do not ingest it due to the non-food-grade alcohol content. It's a personal choice, as are all options.

I was in the mountains of PA back in February and stopped by this Mom & Pop pharmacy in Jibbipp, Nowhere. I asked for a bottle of tincture and I had to fill out this "poison control book" that asked for my name, address, and why I was purchasing it. Of course, I wrote that I was Anna Nicole Smith, my address was also invented, and I wrote in the "use" line, "Freebase." Now, the lady (God bless her heart) did not bat one eye at any of this, but I took my tincture (1.19) and went on my merry (but, deflated) way.

The lesson here is that there is absolutely NO shortage of iodine. In fact, I would bet that leaving the bottle open, with the tincture exposed, would evaporate off all of the alcohol and leave behind Iodine and the potassium iodide. Thusly, rendering the whole need to purchase food-grade Iodine from outrageously expensive vendors moot.

Just a thought. :-)
