Re: My iodine arrived; I'm starting!

Hi Debbie,

Yes, that sounds fine. Why are you starting tomorrow? Most of us are so iodine deficient, if it was me I would start iodine as soon as I opened the package! =-) Kathleen

My iodine arrived; I'm starting!

I'm a bit nervous about this :)I guess some folks just jump right in, but i've decided to go the slow and gradual approach.I found a chart at this website about starting Iodoral.http://www.healthnatura.com/articles/How_to_use_Iodoral.htmlIt reccomends 1/2 tablet (6.25mg) daily the first week, then increasing by 1/2 tablet daily each week to desired dose. (12.5mg daily the second week, 18.75 mg the third, etc.)Does this sound reasonable?What I have is Lugol's 2%. So I'm thinking about starting at 3 drops daily for the first week (7.5mg), and increasing by one drop (2.5mg) daily each week.It's a bit over the amounts on the chart I was looking at, but seems reasonable.Any feedback? Does this sound okay?I plan to start in the morning. (Monday morning.)Yes, I've read all the documents for new people and yes I have the supporting nutrients (Vit. C, selenium, magnesium, celtic salt) and I'm starting those, too.Thanks,Debbie

You'll be fine. Anything that your body doesn't use will just go out in your urine. I started at 12.5 but you can start where you want to. Just make sure you also use the companion nutrients also so your body will use the iodine correctly.You'll be fine. There is over 5000 people in this group using iodine.

My iodine actually arrived Friday, but I was gone the rest of that

day, and most of the day Saturday.

I felt like I needed to read through the information and figure out

how many drops of the 2% to begin with, and to have it clear in my

mind how to take the companion supplements. Today (Sunday) I finally

had time to do that, but some have said they take don't sleep well

if they take iodine later in the day, so . . . I decided to start

tomorrow morning.

And like I said, I guess I'm a bit nervous about taking it. I can't

give you a rational reason for that. I've been reading about it for

two or three of weeks now, and feel pretty informed. But I would

guess that some others feel the same way I do about starting.

Anyway, I'm going to do it!

Debbie
