Iodine is fantastic for killing all manner of germs, and like colloidal silver, the bugs can't become resistant to it.

I understand the aversion to antibiotics. They are often overprescribed and do have side effects, but far more often than not they are the best or only option for effectively fighting a bacterial infection. You saw what happened to your husband. Please...take note.

Agree.

STAT.

Iodine has so many benefits and I've been taking 2-3 drops of Iosol in NOT tap water for years and when I've skipped dosing, I would end up with breast pain and tenderness. Other subject but just say the need for iodine in general for all tissues.

I favor oil of oregano for infections. Get the good stuff at the health food store, not Walmart.
