Our formula is also screened for radiation.

- I don’t have a thyroid gland; do I still need iodine?
- This is a question to discuss with a qualified healthcare practitioner. Generally speaking, iIf the thyroid gland is removed, then iodine is not necessary to create thyroid hormones. However, this doesn’t mean that the rest of your body does not need iodine. Iodine is necessary for both breast and prostate health, which (after the thyroid) are the second-largest storage sites in the body. Iodine is also used by the adrenal glands, parotid glands, mucosal lining of the intestines, the uterus, and ovaries. Again, please consult with a healthcare professional to determine your individual iodine requirements.
- Is Organixx Iodine safe for those who have an allergy to iodine?
- Most other iodine formulas contain chemicals and fillers. However, Organixx Iodine is nascent, meaning it doesn’t contain anything other than the deep earth sourced pure iodine. For this reason, many people have been able to use our iodine even with an iodine allergy. That said, as with any new supplement, it is always best to seek the advice of your healthcare provider before using this product, particularly if you have concerns about potential allergic reactions.

- What is the plant-vegetable source of the glycerine used in your iodine formula? Also, from which country is (are) these plants sourced?
- The source of the Vegetable Glycerin is organic mustard seed, which is sourced from India.
- What are some possible side effects?
- Initially, you may feel worse when taking iodine, as the accumulation of toxic material must be processed and removed from the body. This is typically referred to as a “healing crisis”, which is a temporary worsening of symptoms that occur when the body is going through the process of healing itself through the elimination of toxins.
-
- This process can include physical effects as the toxins in your body are metabolized. The most common side effects of a healing crisis include fatigue, headache, minor rash, lack of mental clarity, joint or muscle aches, irritability, difficulty sleeping, sleeping too much, or mood swings. Please consult with a qualified healthcare provider if you experience any side effects from consuming iodine or any other supplement.
- How long before I should see results?
- While many will feel positive results with the initial serving, everyone is different and has the potential to react differently to our products. We suggest taking Organixx Iodine consistently for 30 to 60 days, in order to allow the body to become accustomed to the new supplement.
- Is there a risk of overdosing on iodine if I am not iodine deficient? Is there a general risk of overdosing?
- Acute iodine toxicity is rare, and usually only occurs when many grams of iodine have been ingested. The suggested serving size of 3 drops daily for Organixx Iodine is considered safe, and anything beyond the recommended serving size should first be discussed with your trusted healthcare professional.
- How exactly is salt transported 7,000 feet to the surface? How is it that you found a salt deposit that far underground? How do you know it is 300 million years old?
- The iodine is sourced from a specific geologic formation in a salt mine, and the evidence indicates that it is a very old formation. This source was chosen by our manufacturing team after extensive research.
- Is there a lab report showing how Organixx came to the conclusion that each drop is loaded with 650 micrograms of iodine.
- No testing is performed to determine the exact amount of iodine per drop. The estimated amount per serving is determined as part of the total iodine in the final formulation, which is then broken down to an amount per serving guideline.
- How does this Organixx Iodine differ from other nascent iodines?
- Organixx Iodine is not an iodide or iodate. Iodides are iodine which has been bound to another mineral, such as potassium. As such, iodides are more difficult for the body to use.
- Organixx Iodine is a special non-toxic transformed mono-element nascent iodine product. In other words, the only mineral Organixx Iodine contains is iodine! This results in easier uptake and utilization.
- I have heard co-factors are needed when taking iodine. Which co-factors are needed?
- Our unique form of iodine does not need co-factors due to its nascent atomic form, however, there are several vitamins and minerals that can aid absorption and potentially improve the overall benefits of iodine.
- Selenium and magnesium can improve the absorption of iodine in individuals who are known to be deficient or have known malabsorption issues. Other vitamins and minerals that can assist in the overall function of iodine after it has been absorbed are B-vitamins, vitamin C, and manganese. The necessity of taking additional vitamins and minerals with iodine should be discussed and recommended by a trusted healthcare professional.
