Re: Beginner - effects so far

[Guest guest]

I had those frontal headaches. Wow, pretty intense, but it is a good sign.

That's toxic bromine bidding adieu. And the sea salt did help stop the headache

pretty quickly. Anyway, it was a transient thing. I think you're managing

yourself doing very well. Nothing but zippety do-dah from now on. Peace and

gratitude, Dean

" lump " or something high in the throat, looked up Bromide detox symptoms, yup,

swelling of the base of the tongue muscle. Harmless but I'm a singer, don't

want unfamiliar feelings in the throat. Backed off the iodine until it went away

in a few days (salt water didn't " cure " it).

(in my morning tea, yes tea has fluoride but 20 drops of 2% Lugol's has to

outmatch whatever is in weak green tea). No throat issues.

fuzzy frontal headache a couple hours later (went away with salt water. Also,

for a few hours after I drink the iodine there's a minimal feeling like the

glands under the side of the jaw are a tad swollen, but nothing evident when I

touch them.

through.

energy, take a nap most afternoons, etc, mind still blinks out for a moment, I

still forget where I put things, but in some basic underlying sense I feel good.

It's like an underlying boredom or something is gone.
