Guest guest Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 I hope everyone caught the reference hidden to Vitamin D in a recent email. Here is the quote. Has anyone on this group noticed the Vitamin D interaction he talks about??? Sounds like we need to make sure we are getting enough vitamin D when supplementing with iodine. Sunlight and/or cod liver oil. "I have also noted an apparent connection between bringing sufficient iodine to a bromine plugged thyroid, and the vitamin D metabolism of the body. Although I am unaware of the exact mechanism, it seems clear that the calcitonin/parathyroid hormone/Vitamin D/calcium balance in the body changes as people on iodine loading programs often register as vitamin D deficient when they did not previously. "It is interesting to note that when people are given calcitonin as part of an osteoporosis program one of the side effects mentioned is a “flushing sensation of the skin” I have had two iodine loading, high bromine patients who during the lowering of their bromine levels registered as iodine deficient and mentioned “a sunburn flushed feeling on the skin of their faces, arms and back” This flushing disappeared with vitamin D3 supplementation at 2000 iu daily for a limited period of time. Just an observation." http://www.supernutrient.com/iodine.cfm Zoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitamin D seems to influence so many functions. They both do. There must be some overlap.. some synergy. > > Be well, > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
