Is this low heavy metal verified ?

All three ingredients are pharmaceutical grade. This Lugol's solution is the highest purity.

Can I consume this directly in my mouth?

No, it has to be diluted with plenty of water. For drinking solutions we advice you to consult with some medical expert (M.D.) or pharmacist and find more info on the web. We recommend topical applications of iodine, because there is no known toxicity when it is absorbed through the skin into the blood. The Iodine Speed Test / Iodine Patch TestMost people are deficient in iodine, and there is a simple test that can be used by anyone to determine if he is deficient. This is the test that was once used by the establishment, and from our studies of it, we still believe that it is more reliable than the modern blood tests. Here is the simple procedure: Apply 2% or 5% topical iodine in a circular area that is about the size of a silver dollar (2 inches) on the abdomen, and allow it to completely dry before redressing.Proponents of the test believe that the thing to pay attention to is how long it takes for the iodine patch to disappear. If the patch still exists 24 hours later, the results are normal. If the patch disappears or mostly disappears in less than 24 hours, it is supposed to indicate some degree of deficiency. In fact, significant lightening or disappearance in less than 18 hours is said to indicate moderate to severe iodine deficiency and suggest a need for supplemental iodine.This test works due to the fact that the skin absorbs iodine at the rate at which it is needed. We do not pretend to understand the whole process, but the results accurately and reliably reflect iodine consumption in the diet. Whenever a person is ill, transdermal iodine will absorb especially rapidly because iodine helps to produce the hormones which fuel the immune system. In our own testing, we have witnessed a 4 to 5 times absorption increase during periods of high stress or illness.We recommend starting with around 3 drops daily.For transdermal application you can apply it directly onto the skin. In very rear cases there could be alergic reaction on the skin. First apply small amount of Lugol's solution on the skin and and leave it for about 1 hour - check if there is any alergic reaction (red skin, itching). If no, you can use it as transdermal application.More about this you can find on:http://www.globalhealingcenter.com/natural-health/how-to-perform-the-iodine-patch-test/

Is this made from shelfish, kelp or crystals? And does it cointain any additives and preservatives?

It is from mined ore, made from crystals and does not contain any additives or preservatives.

Is this similar to sski? or is stronger?

SSKI is better, but harder to get your hands on. You can take far larger Iodide doses than Iodine, when taking Iodine along with SSKI you are better of going for pure Iodine. The more Pure versions of Iodine are mainly Nascent Iodine, there's stronger solutions available by people who can make it at home. SSKI is around 50mg Saturated Solution Potasium Iodide. It can increase the healing of wounds and curing of certain diseases or issues at a more rapid rate, it do however require knowledge too handle correctly. Check out the Curezone forum for more information. The easiest things is to just purchase a few more bottles and take larger amounts, the amounts taken can be found at Curezone and it will explain what that is necessary against what. Larger amounts are mainly taken to cure fungai related issues which most people experience without knowing it, killing fungus releases 79 toxins per fungai bacteria and that creates issues if you don't know how to supplement correctly.
