My daughter has had bouts of barking coughing everytime she gets an Upper respiratory bug every year for as long as I can remember. I got her taking iodine daily, as well as elderberry and turmeric and this is the first year she has not had weeks of barking coughs when she does get the sniffles. She had pneumonia at age 2, and is almost 19.
We started on lugols iodine 2 drops a day, that bottle took a year to go thru, no using nascent iodine by Carlyle. It's clear and tasteless. She likes it better. I give it to my younger kids too and seems to boost immune system.
Hubby and I have been using Lugols 5% for several years. We use larger dosing, so we're on an auto subscription plan. Users should also know to take Selenium w/it (we use Life Extensions).
I take the selenium with vit E from life extensions. My kids, I just give a drop or two in their coffee every now and then. My 18yo gets queasy with many supplements so won't take NAC or quercetin but she likes the iodine. I gargled iodine several times for sore throat and that helps a lot.

What form of iodine and how much? I’ve started to read more on this and how essential it is, and how so many people are lacking the proper amounts.

If you begin taking iodine work yourself up slowly. Start with 1 drop daily for a couple weeks then increase to 2.
