Re: Milk = iodine = acne? Mercola says ...

[Guest guest]

Mercola is such a mixed bag. I stopped taking his newsletter a few months

ago. The acne he's referring to is bromide acne, from detoxing the

bromide. It's the classic thing of confusing the symptoms of bromide detox

as iodine " poisoning " symptoms, a big lie.

Milk from the store also has hormones in it which might contribute to acne.

I was going to ask about this! I have my 13 yo dd up to 3 drops of Lugol's each

day and thought I should quit it maybe because her acne is getting worse. Then

I thought, is it just from detoxing bromide and I should continue and let the

detox proceed?

Well... if the bromide is coming out through the skin that indicates the

normal, preferable detox pathways aren't working well. Ultimately the

iodine will help her acne (the non-detox kind), because the skin needs

iodine to function correctly.

I would back down a drop and help her work on her detox pathways. Also, is

she taking the companion nutrients? Far-infrared saunas are extremely

effective for opening detox pathways.

Her acne may be due to low estrogen & high testosterone, PCOS

Get them tested.

i'm 47 years old and have suffered with acne my entire life. two weeks ago i cut

out cow's milk and guess what? my skin started clearing the very next day. in a

little over a week you'd never know i had a problem with acne.

milk. it does a body no good.

[Guest guest]

Not true. It just wasn't doing your body good. And it can be the milk you are drinking. All milk is not created equal. I've experience many benefits to raw milk from grass fed cows. One time I was very sick after birth. I had horrible water retention. Forget swollen feet it was swelling up past my knees! My BP was stroke level high and even IV meds didn't lower it. I had to stay on my side in bed to keep it down. Well I tried the Milk Cure. Within 48 hrs my water retention was almost entirely gone and my BP was near normal.

I googled milk cure and read about it at the mayo clinic web site. Very interesting.I can't believe how our government is doing nothing but poisoning our foods. From: Marcella <saponaria@...>iodine Sent: Thu, June 2, 2011 9:01:16 AMSubject: Re:

There are some symptoms that can be caused by lots of things. (Fatigue is one -- prenancy, leukemia, detox, infection...) Acne seems to be another.When I was in college (shortly after I got a bunch of vaccines!) I developed food allergies that manifested as acne. I went from having gorgeous skin to having suppurating pustules all over my face. Allergy testing & a strict diet cleared me right up.But that is far from the only thing that can cause it.AnneOn Jun 2, 2011, at 3:55 PM, jennifer wrote:

I have found that for my son a cod liver oil supplement with a and d, plus magnesium, works to keep his acne at bay.
