Basic Care Nasal Moisurizer Saline nasal spray 3 FL (88 ML) I need to know the exact mixing of iodine drops @2% & water by weight 3oz = (88 M ), (I`m new at this so please be patient ). For use with a nebulizer @ 2% idione, how long per treatment session?

I did a conversion check and one shot glass is equal to one ounce of water just to let you know. I don`t drink so have no idea of the subject of shot glasses but did not think to look it up at first, it might save somebody else some time and trouble though.

Iodine Kills ALL Viruses By Yohanan Burket

A survivor of the Avian flu in 2007, I have been actively investigating various modalities to get rid of any type of flu, regardless of the strain. As it turns out, there was a universal medicine used over 110+ years ago that did just that: it completely destroyed all bacteria, viruses, and even fungus. I speak with experience; I can now get rid of the flu of any strain within a half hour. Doctors are aware of the antiseptic properties of iodine, as they use it before operating on surgery patients. However, it is not promoted to the public as a general remedy.
Various Other Remedies for Influenza (the Grippe)

Over the years, I have experimented with various other remedies for the flu, all of which only diminished the misery and the length of the flu infection, but none of which could stop the flu in its tracks.

Here are the various remedies I tried:

1. Vitamin C, 2 grams orally

2. Elderberry, said to be the only herb to be effective against viruses according to research

3. Vitamin D3 or lots of sunlight

4. Honey, Lemon, and Apple Cider Vinegar

5. Ozone

6. Hydrogen Peroxide sprayed into the throat

7. Oregano oil, one drop under the tongue

8. Colloidal silver, 10 ppm, a tablespoon at a time

9. Olive leaf tincture

10. Boneset tincture for muscular aches

11. Thyme tincture for a runny nose

12. NOW Amino complete (NOT BCCA; it is worthless, as are any protein sources) for energy

13. Niacin (nicotinic acid) vitamin B3, the flushing kind, in 100-400mg doses

14. Zinc

Simply put, iodine kills viruses on contact. Unlike some modalities, iodine in the correct form can even be taken orally. Never take drugstore iodine, as it is clearly marked “FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY”. The reason for this is because drugstore iodine contains toxic isopropyl alcohol, NOT because iodine is toxic. Iodine had been safely used internally for decades before the medical mafia took over in 1911. See the work of iodine specialists such as Dr. David Derry, Dr. Guy Abraham, Dr. David Brownstein, and Dr. Gorge Flechas to see the research.
Some think that colloidal silver is the universal medicine, and indeed, it is a superior antibacterial (antibiotics are antibacterial). However, it only weakly suppresses viruses, and cannot kill them. I know personally as I once offered an antiviral nose spray based upon colloidal silver. The colloidal silver kept the viral situation in my nose from getting worse, but could not get rid of the viruses. Only iodine can do that, as iodine is antiviral as well, whereas colloidal silver is only weakly anti-viral. Of course the concentration of the iodine used is important, and the Povidine iodine in drugstores is only 1% and is essentially useless. To kill viruses in the nose, a 2-3% concentration of iodine is needed. To kill skin fungus, aka cancer, you need a 7% iodine concentration, as proven by Dr. Tulio Simoncini of Italy, a former oncologist.

Dr. David Brownstein writes:“So effective is iodine that aerosols can be effective in sterilizing a room at levels not even detectable by humans.”

Dr. Marc Sircus writes: “I have suggested that people put iodine into a nebulizer for aerosol treatment for transdermal effect into the lung tissues in the case of lung cancer, emphysema, asthma, and tuberculosis.” To which I would add viruses of any type, including mutated viruses and corona COVID-19.

Ways to Apply Iodine to Kill Coronavirus (COVID19) or Any Other Virus

The highly contagious Coronavirus can enter the body through the nose, mouth, eyes, and ears. Yes, even the ears can receive viruses. Taking iodine in the form of Lugol's iodine internally is a good first step, but one must start with a small dosage and work up to larger doses over a period of weeks to avoid severe itching, especially in people over 50.
Lugol's iodine is elemental iodine mixed with potassium iodide to make it soluble in distilled water, and was discovered by Dr. Lugol in France in 1829. It is the best and safest form of iodine, in my opinion.

Iodine taken Internally


Standard Lugol's iodine contains 6.2 mg per drop, where 100 drops equals 1 level teaspoon. This is the European standard drop. The American drop is defined to be 70 drops per level teaspoon. Iodine doctors suggest a daily dose of around 2 drops daily for optimum health. For cancer patients, the dosage can go up to 300 mg every other day, called pulsed dosing. Iodine, besides being essential for the brain and thyroid, is also utilized by several other organs in the body, including the skin. Taking iodine only internally will not make one immune from a direct viral attack, however.

Gargling with Iodine

Putting roughly 10 drops of Lugol's iodine into 50 ml of water and gargling with it will instantly get rid of coughing, meaning coughing is completely gone within a half hour. I offer two concentrations of Lugol's iodine. Hormone Catalyst is Lugol's iodine at 6.2 mg/drop, and External Tumor Remover is Strong Lugol's iodine (without alcohol) at 8.7 mg/drop.

Using Iodine Nose Drops

Carrying a nasal sprayer with you is convenient when you are not at home, as you can kill viruses that enter your nasal passages instantly with diluted iodine. I offer the Virus Terminator, which contains diluted Lugol's iodine with colloidal silver. It offers a one-two punch to any type of pathogen that enters your nostrils. A large, 250 ml Virus Terminator Refill bottle is also available.

Using Iodine in a Nebulizer

The same concentration of iodine used in the nasal sprayer can be put into a nebulizer, which has the advantage of sterilizing not only the throat, mouth, and nose, but also your eyes and ears. The portable, battery powered Nebulizer can be taken anywhere, but the downside is its cost.

Using Iodine in a Humidifier

The older steam humidifier or the newer cold mist humidifer are good for sterilizing rooms. I've discovered that a concentration of 15 drops of Hormone Catalyst (6.2 mg/drop) per 100 ml. (100 ml = 3.4 oz U.S.).

Using Iodine in a Vaping Device

The electronic cigarettes have a provision to add external liquids to the base liquids. The base liquids are provided by the Vaping stores, namely Vegetable Glycerine and Propylene Glycol. I will offer the mixture for customers complete with the addition of an appropriate amount of iodine. The Vaping device is a low cost alternative to the Nebulizer, only costing one third as much, and is just as portable. It fills the lungs with iodine completely, eliminating any lurking viruses or bacteria. When exhaling, you can also blow the “smoke” out of your nostrils to disinfect them, too. It is a superb solution for someone who already has coronavirus. I am now offering the iodine cigarette (vaping device), minus tobacco or nicotine.

Using Iodine Away From Home

The Virus Terminator nasal spray, the vaping device, and the battery operated portable nebulizer are all good products to take with you to work or any other public outing. A small, 30 ml bottle of Hormone Catalyst (Lugol's iodine) is handy if you want to also be able to gargle to promptly get rid of a cough.

Bill, I tried the water mix nasal spray but it does not disperse - atomize like I thought it would, just a flush of liquid. My question do you know if I use a nasal saline solution instead of water, will it have the same effect in killing any virus - bacteria ? Do you of any saline or something similar that could be inhaled-sprayed in to the lungs instead of water?

Hi Sharon, I have used 15% Lugol's Iodine and I normally have ten drops in a glass of milk and drink it but if you are not used to it, just take less drops. I know that Lugol's Iodine kills viruses on contact, and at one time it used to be in natural cow's milk, I have no problems by drinking this strong supplement but I have no medical background so the advice given here is from my own personal use and you can not supplement every day unless you take much less like 3 drops per Glass of milk..

Hi Yohanan, I'm Zal from Israel too. Here is my protocol for any imaginable virus. I don't know if I ever was infected. Maybe I was, and some days I felt like I did. So at the first imaginable slight sign of coming flu, or sneezing..or whatever, I immediately did the following. I actually do that since yrs before CV19. I warm up water (mineral) almost to the boiling point. But before that, I put in a large glass (IKEA big glass cup) a half tsp of coconut oil, half tsp turmeric, quarter tsp cayenne, 1/8th tsp cinnamon, and a little black pepper. Pour hot water, about 3/4 of the glass. Stir well for a minute, cover. Wait about 20 minutes (I go for a walk with our dog). Then put in a large spoon of raw honey(I use eucalyptus honey). Stir until dissolved. Then the very Last thing you put in is Oil of OREGANO, 3-5 drops. I guarantee you it will kill even ebola! I do all that when I up at around 4 AM, and go outside at 4:30 am. When I'm back I drink the mix. I was also taking 4-6 oregano drops with a little water and followed with raw Honey, when coming back from shopping. I also used Colloidal Silver, 1 tsp 2-3 times a day. Turmeric we use with every food. But we're vegans/vegetarians. The mix I keep drinking today too, after CV19 is successfully contained in Israel in quite a short time.

Hi Jean...

The reason I didn't do a proper double blind human trial is because it would have cost me upwards of $200 million to achieve a trial result. And I'm afraid I haven't got that sort of loose cash lying around. Perhaps I could have offered this research task to one of the big pharmaceutical companies, but I'm pretty sure that they would have shown absolutely no interest at all because drug companies always prefer chemicals that are patentable -- and they always seem to dislike natural or simple inorganic chemicals like lugols iodine. It just doesn't fit their business profit model I'm afraid to say.

But if you want to see Dr Derry's research which references the mice research by Stone and Burnet, it's here: https://www.realrawfood.com/sites/default/files/article/Iodine-Weapon%20Against%20Viruses.pdf

And here is the actual research by Stone and Burnet(who both also won a Nobel prize for their research on Clonal Selection Theory) on mice using viral mists and iodine : https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21006104

As to your suggestion of inhaling lugols iodine with whisky, that is perhaps a rather extreme measure and not advisable due to the many chemical impurities in the whisky. Better to inhale lugols iodine + water as advised because it just contains potassium iodide + molecular iodine + water. Much safer.

Hi Wendy,

Did you add it to water?

Bill Thompson's recipe posted on Earth Clinic:

Lugol's Iodine Nasal Solution

To get enhanced protection from the coronavirus, do the following:

1. Fill a small shot glass (for whiskey) half full of purified water.

2. Add four drops of 5% Lugol's iodine (or nine drops if you have 2% Lugol's iodine) to the water in the shot glass. Stir well with a clean spoon.

3. In each nostril, add one dropper-full of the iodine/water mixture and then gently sniff it into the nasopharynx region at the back of the nose.

When you add the iodine + water into your nostrils, this mixture will turn into vapour, which will further act to destroy any incoming virus that you breathe into your nose for several hours.

Similarly, when you breathe in through your nose, the iodine/water vapour will also move to help disinfect and give enhanced protection for the nasopharynx, throat, and lung regions as well.

This extra protection against COVID-19 infection would be particularly useful if you go into a crowded outside area or an infected environment.

This additional iodine protection might also be quite valuable for any nurses or doctors out there who are continually tending infected patients daily in hospitals.

@Bill, Thanks very much for this remedy. I used it before running errands on Friday. I also wore a mask of course. Burned a tiny bit after I snorted the mixture to the back, but not too bad. Definitely went down my throat. I love having the extra protection when I am out and about... and then when I get home. I caught myself touching my nose as soon as I walked in the front door before I had washed my hands. Eeeeks!! Good to know it lasts approx 2 hours. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.

Hi Peter...I don't think putting just a drop in your nose would go very far or last long. It will also sting alot in your nose(I tried it). That's why you should just add the lugols iodine drops to a reasonable amount of water as advised. If you do that then more water vapour + iodine will be created in your nasal passages and that's what gives you all the needed protection.

Hi,

My question is for Bill or Art. I prepared the nasal drops with lugol iodine as suggested by Bill and use it regularly when I go out. My observation is that as soon as I put one dropper of the liquid in to my nostril, it goes straight in to my throat and is swallowed, so does happen in an other nostril also.

My question is that in this case, does it still take care of the sinuses against the covid19 virus in the sinus area, and hope the swallowed liquid does no harm.

Thanks,

Baldev

Shot glass = 1.5 ounces. 1/2 shot glass = .75 ounces Recommendation = 4 drops of 5% (9 drops of 2%) per half a shot glass (.75 ounces) For a 3 ounce bottle, the recommendation would be 16 drops of 5% (36 drops of 2%) Translate to any size bottle 4 drops for every .75 ounces of water.

Anyone telling people to mix water and iodine for nasal use WITHOUT ADDING A PINCH OF SALT is a nimcompoop! If you want to burn your nasal membranes, follow this ridiculous recipe.

You are better off getting some saline (and only saline) nasal spray/mist and adding a couple of drops of the Lugol's to that. I don't know the formula which is why I'm here, but I'm smart enough to know that this info is horribly wrong so I don't trust their formula either.

And I fully support Peter McCullogh but he too is clueless as omits the salt or saline component! Shame on him too. I think he relied on others for his info about this ...

Hi Baldev...The nasal Iodine + water protocol is fully described at the top of the "Nasal Lugol's Iodine Rinse for Protection Against COVID-19" section in EC. Here is the original description of how to do it from that post: "To get enhanced protection from the coronavirus, do the following: 1.

Good info, thank you. Colloidal Ag at 10 ppm is too low a concentration to have much effect. 70 ppm is supposed to be the sweet spot according to some knowledgeable in its use. Iodine is really versatile and has many uses. It would be worthwhile for people that haven't studied much on it to do some research into its many uses and applications. Stay healthy all my EC friends.

Hi Clare...The nasal iodine should last for about 2 hours. Don't forget that you should also wear a face mask as well. If you go outside all day then you can make several batches using the iodine + water recipe and just fill up a small, empty 30 ml dropper bottle with the iodine + water and take it with you for topping up the nasal passages whenever necessary.

Posted by Bill (Philippines) on 05/07/2020

Hi Rob...As I've advised, it's probably easier and best if you add measured amounts in your nose with a dropper. You can certainly try using a nasal sprayer but that's likely more awkward and perhaps messier in my opinion. Also, there's really no need to use saline solution because iodine kills a wider range of pathogens anyway. So perhaps best to just use lugols iodine drops + water as advised.

Relative to the question about the saline solution. I read of nebulizing Hydrogen Peroxide, I don't recall the percentage of H.P. It was a USA MD's recommendation and could be researched if you are unable to get Lugol's or follow Bill's protocol.
