About This Site

The Iodine Protocol was created to share a practical, evidence-informed look at iodine antiseptics, nail fungus, and the slow biology of nail growth.

The core idea came from a 2006 case report in the Canadian Medical Association Journal, where a retired physician described his own toenail fungus improving with inexpensive iodine tincture. That single case report, combined with the well-established use of iodine in surgical disinfection, made the topic worth explaining carefully, including its limits and safety cautions.
