Re: When taking Iodoral

I'm curious about this since my 19 year old already has a pretty bad acne problem and I'll be starting her on Iodoral within the next week. I don't want the problem to get worse and don't want to put her on antibiotics (which the doctor recommended when she asked him). If she chooses the antibiotics, I can't really stop her since she is 19 but if something natural will help, I would like her to try it first. Is acne a symptom of a zinc deficiency? Should I supplement with zinc when she starts the Iodoral? How long after yu started the zinc supplementation did her acne improve?Pamela>> i have my daughter who had terrible bromide acne from the iodine on zinc..60 mg per day plus copper....the copper was in the tablet already..anyway her face is looking so much better..no new bumps and others are clearing and looking so much better...she must have been deficient i guess?? thank goodness for this suggestion to try zinc...it has helped a whole lot...

Acne is probably a result of detoxing. It is infection coming out your your pores on your skin. It has got to be a good thing for the infections to come out. You don't want that stuff staying in you. I know I would want it to come all out so the end result is nothing but beauty. Stick it out and I'm sure it'll get better and the end result will be clear skin. from IllinoisFrom: dawn volz <dawnv5@...>iodine Sent: Tue, December 29, 2009 2:59:17 PMSubject: Re: Re: When taking Iodoral

Check out what's in the antibiotics (if that's her choice) because fluoride

features in some of them (and MANY antidepressants)and has caused havoc for some

people.

(I don't take iodine) but years ago I had good success with homeopathic hepar

sulp to clear skin eruptions, boils and so on...it definitely helped the liver.

I think there's a link between sulphur and methylation but can't recall exactly

what it is at the moment...sorry!

Has you daughter tried 1 t. apple cider vinegar to 8 oz of water and you can add 1 t. honey, 100% maple syrup, blackstrap molasses or 4 drops of stevia. Best results are obtained doing this 3 times a day. It is used for cleansing, healing and energizing health qualities.it doesn't hurt to try.You can also get grapefruit see extract (GSE) at a health food store and take that everyday also.Good luck. from Illinois

That's a good idea- I have heard of NAET. We are actually trying a homemade variety of NAET for now by "Chiro Ted"- Dr. Ted . Who knows if it works like NAET, but it costs next to nothing to do and he is very helpful by email. He says his version is a new and improved NAET.

Hi Steph,

I am just going through the 700 or so posts that are on here since I signed off before Christmas. I tried vit c powder mixed in with lugols. I put Lugols in with water to dilute it and then I put the vit c in and the brown liquid went totally clear! I started to loose weight and my heart rate went up again therefore flaring up my Graves again. My doctor said that they are not to be taken together?

An unknown concentration of vitamin C or ascorbic acid can be determined using iodine.

When ascorbic acid comes into contact with iodine, the chemical reaction that occurs produces dehydroascorbic acid and iodide. A starch indicator is added to the vitamin C solution to indicate when the chemical reaction is complete. As long as there is still ascorbic acid in the solution, the iodine will react with it and become iodide. When all the ascorbic acid has reacted and become dehydroascorbic acid, the iodine will react with the starch to create a dark blue color, signaling the reaction is complete. The dehydroascorbic acid can be measured to determine the concentration of vitamin C in the original solution.

When Iodine and ascorbic acid are combined in solution, a chemical reaction takes place. In this chemical reaction, the ascorbic acid molecule loses electrons, which are transferred to the iodine molecule. Chemists call this type of reaction an oxidation/reduction reaction (or redox reaction for short). The ascorbic acid is oxidized to dehydroascorbic acid, and the iodine is reduced to Iodide ions.

From what I understand potassium iodide is colorless but elemental iodine has the color and the vitamin C changes the iodine in the lugol's to iodide. Anytime anything is stained (including skin) from iodine, vitamin C will remove the stain. So when you take liquid lugols with vitamin C you may be changing the elemental iodine to iodide, but that is the preferred form for the thyroid, from what I have read other parts of the body like the breasts & prostate like the elemental iodine so if you are taking liquid luguls for non thyroid reasons you may not want to take them right at the same time. I would think taking iodoral would be completely different since it breaks down in the intestines. I just figure my body will figure out what to do with it all anyway. I just happen to take my iodoral with breakfast and my vitamin C with dinner but not for any reason other than splitting up all the pills I take everyday.

The chemistry here appears quite sound. This makes it quite apparent that anyone

taking Lugol's or Iodoral with the intent of receiving the benefit of its iodine

component, is receiving only iodide if they are also taking vitamin C. The very

fact that vitamin C turns it clear is proof that it has converted the originally

iodine component into the colorless iodide form. I now find it quite odd that

the doctors involved in promoting Lugol's and Iodoral also insist that massive

doses of vitamin C must be taken, since clearly it converts it all into iodide.

If certain parts of the body actually prefer iodine, then they will not be

getting it if vitamin C is being taken.

I

take 500 MG of niacin first thing in the morning to open up all my blood

vessels via a good flush followed at the same time with Lugol's

in water with a couple tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. After a couple hours, I take maple syrup

with bicarbonate of soda to alkalize.

After an hour or so, I take my vitamins including C and feel that the

time lag prevents interaction with the iodine in Lugol's.

The

niacin along with Lugol's is supposed to help clean

out the circulatory system as well.

The C and other supplements are supposed to keep the blood vessels

flexible and healthy.

I

feel I need to add a desiccated thyroid to help my thyroid to normalize. However, I don't use mainstream medicine

physicians. Any recommendations for

OTC thyroid meds that work with the Lugol's?

I'm not sure if taking vit C internally would effect a patch test but the patch test has already been found unreliable anyway. If you put some on for a patch test and then put vitamin C on top of it externally the color will disappear, so if you were to use a Vitamin C serum normally in the same area you tried to do a patch test it would take the color away. Sometimes I put iodine on my face in areas before bed and if I wake up and there is still a little staining I just wipe it over with a little vit C on a cotton pad.

When taking Iodoral

I started my son on Iodoral yesterday and was concerned about other supplements interferring with absorption. I know that Vit. C should not be taken with it. Are there any others?Also, are there any supplements that help with absorption?I don't know if the iodoral had anything to do with it, but he slept about 12 hours last night.Thanks.
