Iodine Supplementation and Deficiency

Hi Clint,

Great article! It may indeed become necessary to double, or even triple my dosage, but it's also important to increase slowly, as not to shock the thyroid. Because I just started last week, I'm going to hang out at 3 drops per day for the time being. Even at that dosage I am amazed at the changes and results I am getting. I feel completely different (in a good way) than I did a week ago!

I'm going to forward this article to my family and friends

What a terrific source of new information this forum is! Truly life saving info here!

I couldn't agree more

Thanks to all.

I have some NASCENT Iodine.....I wonder how that compares.

I just started taking mine...again! I take some stuff regularly, and others I space out how often I take it.

The last time I took it, I didn't seem to notice much, but lots of stuff has changed since then.

I recall, several years ago, I stumbled into rainbow advanced superfood vitamin and I actually felt better

Tho I never could figure out what it was in the pill that did the trick!...which was quite frustrating. The next time I recall

was in the 90's and I had bought solgar with sulphur, and it too made a difference I could feel,

But I forgot what the sulphur was mixed with and have been unable to figure it out...I even asked

various health food stores and nobody could remember, there are too many formulation changes all the time.

It may have just been a synergy between the sulphur and what else was in the bottle....because I've

taken MSM and it had no impact I could feel!

I'm currently reevaluating my vitamin regime as everyone should....

KJ,

Am glad you are listening to your body, and are that much in tune with it .... I think you're doing the right thing ... some people need way more to kick start the thyroid and adrenals when they have a compromised endocrine system. If you are getting this good of a reaction right off the start, it's a good sign that your recovery will be less time... cause most people take months to start to see results when taking iodine.

Kenneth:

Kelp can be one way, but it is much slower... cause we are assuming that a person's digestion is normal, and can breakdown the sea weed enough to get the iodine from it ... most can't when they are in recovery.

As for the kelp in particular, Dusle is one of the highest iodine containing sea vegetables. If you go to say a WholeFoods store, they for sure have it in their Macrobiotic section, sold as flakes ... just sprinkle it on your veggies.



When I was a chef, I used to make a Dulse salad with cucumbers and red onions ... it was very tasty.
