Re: Iodine, by MH

"Within the iodine supplementation forum, in most all cases the negative "side" effects experienced while taking iodine are regarded blindly as "detox" symptoms, or, too much too soon, with little more than copious written data on iodine supplementation and urinary analysis to guide people through; no one "knows" for sure what is happening to them during supplementation without thorough, individual testing and the $$$ to pay for it."

cant disagree more. all of the symptoms reported on our forum are also reported to the family practice doctors involved with the study. they HAVE labs. they HAVE tested and find that bromine is most often the culprit for the symptoms. protocols have been established which help mitigate or eliminate these symptoms.

where we are flying blind is on an individual basis. we do see patterns and trends. we are also at liberty to do more conjecturing than MDs who can face censure or loss of license. in fact, the opposite is true of these doctors. these guys are giving classes for credit which keeps license requirements current for other practicing physicians.

truth be known, anyone can say anything. that does not make it true. the people who have stuck it out and worked with us on the forum have ususally gotten some level of success. one trend we have noticed is that those who have the most problems with iodine supplementation are those who have been on some pharma or OTC drug for a period of time. these people, beknownst to them or not, have altered their chemistry. the fluoridated drugs such as ssri's seem to be the worse.

name me one adverse reaction from iodine that can not also be found on a standard list of symptoms of poisoning by the target substances - mercury, fluoride, bromide, lead, cadmium, aluminum.
