Guest guest Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 You most likely will have adrenal problems. A lot of stress over a long period of time will deplete your adrenals. Go to drrind.com and look for the therapies for thyroid and adrenal problems. There is a temp.graph and instructions how to track your temp. How your average temp. behaves tells you if you have adrenal or thyroid issues, but most likely you have both. If you keep looking around on this web site you can find where he compares symptoms of hypothyroidism with adrenal symptoms. It is recommended to deal with adrenals first,, then the thyroid. Poorly functioning adrenals put the brakes on thyroid function. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 I don't see adrenal function as failing first. Iodine is central to the metabolism and I think that probably the thyroid failed first, then the adrenals. My adrenals did not get better until I was properly treated for thyroid. -- >You most likely will have adrenal problems. A lot of stress over a long >period of time will deplete your adrenals.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 Thanks for the pointers. A look at Dr. Rind's site seems to indicate that I actually have greater adrenal than thyroid troubles. One thing that rather puzzles me is that I have lost 50 pounds over the last 2 years after a lifetime of being overweight. I think I'm still losing although it's slowed down. I'm not trying all that hard. If a person has adrenal issues, how much salt can/should one take? I think I will not increase my iodine any more for now. My Vitamin C tolerance seems to be rather high as 5.5g today did not cause any noticeable effect.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 You still can take iodine because I personally believe it is something we really need. Depending on how much you took, you may whittle it down to just 6.5mg, If you take multi vitamins often there is also some iodine in, and don't forget the food we eat. For my self I found out that the 50mg iodine I took really did a number on my adrenals, because I had not realized that my adrenals were already weak from severe stress over many years.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 That is funny: with me it was the adrenals that first failed, influencing my thyroid.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 if you tolerate high dose of vit c then you might have viruses.you can raise to bowel tolerance and stay there 3 weeks.a bit less then bowel tolerance. people with severe adrenal fatigue are loosing weight. you might need HC Adrenal Fatigue: The 21st Century Stress Syndrome Safe Uses of Cortisol On Tue, Dec 7, 2010 at 4:16 AM, erna ruben <rubenerna@...> wrote: You still can take iodine because I personally believe it is something we really need.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010  Before this discussion gets out of hand. Detoxing can stress the adrenals when the detoxification pathways are not functioning well enough to clear the toxins. Iodine itself helps to heal the adrenals - it does NOT stress the adrenals just by taking it.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 Thank you. Due to the anti-iodine stance of a large adrenal group on , which perpetuates through many channels, this is misunderstood constantly. -- >Before this discussion gets out of hand. > >Detoxing can stress the adrenals when the detoxification pathways are not >functioning well enough to clear the toxins. > >Iodine itself helps to heal the adrenals - it does NOT stress the adrenals >just by taking it. > > > > > > Re: Re: bunch of little questions > > > >You still can take iodine because I personally believe it is something we >really need.
