help - need advice on starting dose for Iodoral??

[Guest guest]

Can anyone help with advice about a good starting dose for Iodoral? I am

starting my daughter (age 18) on iodine because she has been gradually (over

about 2 months) developing hypothyroid symtpoms which have suddenly gotten much

worse in the past two weeks (severe fatigue, brain fog, anxiety and weepiness,

cold, pale skin, poor appetite, etc.).

Right now, I am thinking the source of the problem may be a gluten intolerance

which is affecting her absorption of nutrients. So I am starting her on iodine

for thyroid support, Vitamin C, Celtic Sea salt and a good multi-vitamin.

I just don't know how much Iodoral to tell her to take. I want enough to be

effective, but not so much that she suffers from taking too much too suddenly.

Would 12.5mg a day be a good start????

Thanks,
