I've recently started adding 5 drops of Lugol's iodine to my water pik solution before irrigating the gums. The theory is this will help reverse the gum disease which may be contributing to my bb.
What surprised me is that a long-standing problem with dry patches of skin on my hands cleared up after I started using the iodine for a few days. I did some research and found that dry patches of skin can be a symptom of an under-active thyroid. The small amount of iodine I'm absorbing may be raising the thyroid activity. Even if this doesn't cure the bb, I'm going to keep using iodine for that reason alone.
The bb got worse the same year (2006) that the dry skin started so they may be related. Lack of iodine is also linked to low stomach acidity, which some people here have found to be linked to bb.

hope4now , do you think dry skin is related to bad breath ?
because my skin is very dry, i have to put nivea cream every time i wash my hands . it definitly gets worse on the winter .
i remember my family use to make fun of me calling me a sisi any time i would put lotion.
thanks for the post
I was getting more than just normal wintertime dry skin. That usually responds well to running a humidifier. What I had is patches of dry hardened skin on some of my fingers that would last all year long. It would sometimes heal in one place but reappear somewhere else. The skin would usually crack and bleed easily since it wasn't flexible like normal skin. The iodine is the first thing that has started to clear up this condition. I even went to a dermatologist about it.guzler wrote:hope4now , do you think dry skin is related to bad breath ?

I'm hoping the iodine will also help the bb problem, since it's anti-bacterial and anti-fungal (it helps eliminate candida). I think iodine deficiency could be a common denominator in a lot of ailments that seem at first to be unrelated.
