Re: Bump/ re: Detox vs Allergic Reaction?

[Guest guest]

" True " allergic reactions happen when your body reacts

to a protein string. The body is " looking " for microbes, and

it identifies them by the shape of the proteins on the

cell coating. Unfortunately, sometimes the body decides

that say, latex or dog proteins are actually microbes,

and it goes beserk.

By that definition, I'm not sure that what happens with

iodine can be considered an " allergy " . Iodine is not

a protein, it's an element. It does have the rather interesting

habit though, of stimulating IgA in human beings. So if

you have IgA deposits in your skin (which some people

do, due to leaky gut) then the iodine can stimulate those

deposits and make you itch like mad. I kinda wonder

if that happens to IgA anti-thyroid antibodies too ...

which might account for some of the problems some people

have with iodine.
