[Rationale for treating patients with hypertension and atherosclerosis of the lower extremities with iodine-bromine
Abstract:
Higher therapeutic efficacy of iodine-bromine baths in conversion of iodine from an ionic form (standard iodine-bromine baths) into a molecular one is registered. This is explained by a 23.8 times increase in precipitation and a 4-times increase in iodine penetration into the body when it is molecular. A more effective function of the cardiovascular system, a stronger corrective effect on lipid metabolism, microcirculation in the absence of changes in a secretory function of the thyroid were registered.

Alkyl Halides
Alkyl halides are halogen-substituted alkanes wherein one or more hydrogen atoms of an alkane is replaced by a halogen atom such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine. The carbon atom in an alkyl halide is bonded to the halogen atom, which is sp3-hybridized and exhibits a tetrahedral shape.
Unlike alkyl halides, compounds in which a halogen atom is bonded to an sp2 -hybridized carbon atom of a carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) are called vinyl halides. Whereas aryl...
