According to Dr. Abraham, taking 50 mg/day of iodine for three months will

ensure that you are saturated with iodine. If you took 25 mg/day, I would assume

that the time would be twice as long, and so forth.

But there are some of us that have taken more for longer periods (me for instance - 50 mgs 1 1/2 years, 75 mgs - 6 mos, 125 mgs - year, 100 mgs - 1 year). I am still only at 50% saturation but my bromide levels are through the roof. Went from 24 mg / l to 66 mg/l

I wonder at this statement. Is it a dependency where the body becomes

accustomed over time?

That seems like one is living in a bromide mine when it's that high still?

It seems that there must be a source in your life, or is it possible that it

built up over years?

I didn't know the body holds that much

I really don't know. I am experimenting right now--trying to lower sex

hormones, then maybe I can lower Iodoral. but I think Dr. Abraham takes

100mg.

I feel better on 100 mgs but can take 50 mgs and do OK.

This itself seems like a strange statement to me. Iodine is an essential

nutrient, labeling it a dependency seems unproductive. I was just reading

over the Iodine Remedies Secrets from the Sea free ebook that was just

posted, and it says that:

>Nobel Laureate Dr. Albert Szent Gyorgi, the physician

>the universal medicine, and took 770 milligrams per day

There's a lot of info right at the beginning of that book that discusses

therapeutic dosing. Dr Gyorgi took 770mg/day. I don't think we should be

calling it a dependency to need iodine when we absolutely require it and we

are living in a fishbowl of toxins we now call Earth.

Note I did not call it a dependency.

I have always said it's essential since I joined.

It was a question worth considering.

Some know what I meant

I find this question to quite be valid. It is just taking into account all of

the different possibilities. I have these kinds of questions often. It is

common with problem solving personalities.

Hi Steph, Where do you think the high bromide came from in your case? I too have higher levels that I should - more than double - but have not had things like bromide in flour or much in way of prepared foods. We did use bromine in the swimming pool but that was years ago. My daughter is an environmentalist and so I have been fairly aware/careful.

I used to eat a lot of fast food - burgers, etc so maybe it was in the bread. I was also a computer consultant. There are some of us with bad detoxification pathways who do not push out anything they are exposed to so it just builds up. My son is high in styrene and benzene. Where did he get that at 10 years old? He also had high levels of bromide.

I attended a talk last week given by a lady who had researched food

additives and chemicals her family was exposed to. She had french fries

from Mc's from 2003, and a hamburger from the same date. In a

baggie, with packaging and receipt to prove the date. The stuff was dry

but still the original color. The bun and burger were unchanged in

color, no mold. The fries were also just dried out, no mold.

I used to eat fast food every single day. I wonder about not only the

stuff IN the food, but the packaging and the chemicals used in all those

processes. Is that were the benzene and styrene come from? Hot food

and drinks, served in or on styrofoam?

I don't understand the difference between bromine and bromide, but I was

wondering...How is it in computers, and how are we exposed to it by them? I

googled it, but didn't find much. Is is from actually touching the keys? Or is

it given off in the air from the computer?

Thanks,

It is part of a chemical flame retardant put into electronic devices so they won't catch fire if there is an electrical spark. Then they put a little fan inside, to draw air through, to keep things cool. So yes, the air in all our homes is probably full of it.AnneOn Feb 20, 2010, at 9:21 PM, lookonthebriteside wrote: I don't understand the difference between bromine and bromide, but I was wondering...How is it in computers, and how are we exposed to it by them?

Personally, I think air filters always help, but I don't know if they are specifically effective for bromide. As far as that goes, there are a lot of different kinds of air filters which remove different kinds of crud from the air, so I guess that is something to study.AnneOn Feb 20, 2010, at 10:59 PM, BELINDA CARR wrote: would air filters help or not??? iodine From: slehr05 Date: Sun, 21 Feb 2010 05:21:01 +0000Subject: Re: need some advice here I don't understand the difference between bromine and bromide, but I was wondering...How is it in computers, and how are we exposed to it by them?
