Guest guest Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 No. The acne is bromide-reaction acne, it's caused by the iodine kicking the bromides off the cell receptors, then the free-circulating bromides cause the acne. Generally if people get acne as a detox symptom, it is because their detox pathways are not working well, and that the person is detoxing bromides faster than their body can get rid of them. The acne is caused by the bromides coming out through the skin. Usually the advice is to reduce the amount of iodine low enough that the acne starts clearing up, and to work on the detox pathways. Working on the detox pathways can include liver/gallbladder cleansing, infrared saunas, and various other cleansing protocols. So the answer about getting rid of the acne is to lower the dose and work on detox pathways. If you are taking 200mg because of a cancer diagnosis, you may want to just live with the acne so that you can stay up at that high level. If you are taking the iodine for a less time-critical health crisis or illness, the recommendation is to follow the advice above and clear out your detox pathways so that you don't get the acne. -- moderator On 27 Dec 2011 at 23:40, drct2u wrote: > Wondering if you are gluten free?

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Any suggestions as to why even a small dose of iodine causes my wife to get rapid heartbeat. She has fibric breast cysts. I wonder if she can use iodine topically? RO MARKETPLACE Stay on top of your group activity without leaving the page you're on - Get the Toolbar now.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Is your wife taking the companion nutrients? Very important to do so when taking iodine.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 My guess would be that it is adrenal related. When this happened to me I would take a product called BalanCe (www.vrp.com) which contained Vit C, Mg, K, Ca and I would also take an adrenal support product called Biotics Research Cytozyme AD.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Hello RO, Please read The Guide to Supplementing with Iodine. You will find this by going to Files, then click on New Members Read First, then you will find the Guide ( the fifth one down). This will explain all you need to know about the Iodine Protocol, including the companion nutrients that are necessary to take while supplementing with iodine. You might want to add some adrenal support as well. Ashwaganda herb and or rhodiola herb can be helpful, as well as other adrenal support products. The unrefined Celtic Sea Salt ( one of the companion nutrients you will read about) is also very important for the adrenals as well for supplementing when taking iodine.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Have you tried doing detox baths? 1 Cup Epsom Salts (or Dead Sea Salt) 1 Cup Hydrogen Peroxide Very warm water Soak for 20 mins. This has helped others in the past to eliminate acne in other places.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 I wrote in answer to your question, and Steph's suggestion for the detox bath is one of the ways one can work on opening one's detox pathways, as I have stated you must do. If you didn't see my post, use the link at the bottom of this email to " Visit Your Group on the Web " , then click on " Messages " in the lefthand column, then search on either this subject line or my email address: vbaker@... Also could you please sign your posts with a name so that others (and I) can have a way to remember you? Also, please do not truncate posts. I was unable to return to your question within this email, and I cannot go searching looking for old emails. This list specifically is run by NOT truncating, so that the owner/moderators/knowledgeable members do not have to waste their time looking for the original question and subsequent feedback. We have more than 5,700 members and have a lot of people who need help. One more thing: While it would be nice if people started a new thread when they change the subject, that just doesn't always happen. We have a lot of people who are very new to the Internet, in addition to the fact that conversations ramble and that's just a fact of life. But you have received replies to your question from at least two moderators and the listowner. It's not that complicated, the acne. It's very clear what is causing it and what the solution is. -- moderator On 28 Dec 2011 at 22:10, ladybugsandbees wrote: > > > > Have you tried doing detox baths? > > 1 Cup Epsom Salts (or Dead Sea Salt) > 1 Cup Hydrogen Peroxide > Very warm water > > Soak for 20 mins. > > This has helped others in the past to eliminate acne in other places. > > Buist, ND HC > > > Re: Re: Acne -detox symptom > > > Please be advised, this was me asking for advice on acne > and has turned into advice for rapid heartbeat & fibrocystic breasts!? > > I can't get my question answered because I don't know if others are > responding to your wifes breasts or the acne on my bum!

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 I would try putting castor oil on the breakouts, at night. That really helps mine, no matter where they are. I am on about 120 mg now, and don't have any acne issues, but that is a common problem for me when I up my dose. Mostly on my face, and in my ears, so far..
