Saliva and
Urine Iodine Test
Interpretation

 Interpreting SALIVA &  URINE  IODINE TESTING

PPM/ug/dl  Note:  1  PPM  =  100  ug/dL

IODINE ANALYZER  RESIDUAL  INTERPRETATION
Initial test result;
Saliva 0  to  3  PPM  
Urine  0 to  1  PPM
  Persons  not supplementing,  not eating  sea  vegetables  or fish will test in this  range.  Urine  at this  low range  means  that the  body is  not dumping excess  iodine  but  is  holding  on  to  all  it  can  get.

After 1 week supplementation:
Saliva 0 to  10  PPM
Urine   0 to  5  PPM
No  or little  patient compliance  or poor symporter action from  the  blood to the thyroid  gland.  If the  mechanism is  compromised,.  a  higher iodine dose from  37 to  100  PPM  may repair the gland  receptor. The  body is  retaining  as  much  iodine  as  possible  due to  deficiency.

Picture
After 1-4 week supplementation;
Saliva  11 to 50  PPM
Urine   6 to 12 PPM
Symporter is  working  correctly  to  deliver iodine  to  the  thyroid.  If the  urine  is less than 20  PPM,  continue  supplementation  at 37 mg  Lugol's  per day.
Body is  starting  to dump  iodine  as  the  other competing  halogens  are displaced.

After long term supplementation;
Saliva 20 to 100 plus PPM
Urine 16 plus PPM

These  are  high  values  that are  OK but do  not  convey any  more  useful information  than  lower values.  Here the  urine value  is  dominant. A high  urine  value is  the  body dumping  the excess iodine it doesn't need. Sufficiency can  be  reached  if the  urine is  12 to  16 PPM.  If there  is  a question  of sufficiency,  do  a  24  hr  urine  collection  if the  subject will  comply. Once these values  are  reached,  reduce the  supplementation to  maintain sufficiency.  Of course  if there  are  other issues.  continue  as  the practitioner deems  appropriate.

Picture
DISCLAIMER 1. These  values  have not  been  evaluated  by the  FDA but  are indirectly and  independently supported  by past  and  present studies.  Dosing  levels  and possible  adverse  side  effects from  iodine  supplementation  should  be  understood  by the  practitioner and  are  not the responsibility of the manufacturer.
2.  It is  possible to  see saliva  readings  as  high  as  600 if measured  within  2 -3  hours  after dosing. The  salivary glands  concentrate the iodine  (similar to  the thyroid) from  10 to  40 times the  blood  level. The  level will  decrease with time with  no  dosing.
