Re: OT Lugol's_Graves & Hashimoto's diseases

[Guest guest]

Hi ,>>>Our bodies need iodine - period.  Could it be that in rare circumstances, one shouldn't take something? Of course!  I just wonder if the rate of Hashi's has risen since they started replacing iodine in our bread with bromine. Maybe one wouldn't develop Hashi's if they had sufficient iodine levels to begin with. I wonder what would happen if someone with Hashi's took iodine for a year or more? Would their Hashi's go away? <<<<

I just posted about this, Dr. Brownstein believes both Graves and Hashimoto's diseases are caused by low iodine... He actually treats both diseases with iodine other other supps...

Re: Re: OT Lugol's

I'm not automatically dismissing the allopath, but like I said, I read the entire article and could punch all kinds of holes in his comments. I will be the first to admit that I haven't done much research on the subject - nor will I (at least not today :-), but I think there is another side to the argument. And where I see big pharma  and allopaths involved..........well, my suspicion goes up.  I am certainly not advising you or anyone with Hashi's to take iodine, but I would.

I would take it and see what happens. Maybe it would have done wonders for you in conjunction with the LDN, who knows?  I wanted to point out how LDN works because they have found that what scientists thought the theory behind auto-immune all these years is flawed. The LDN site says we need to rethink autoimmune illnesses.  It kind of reminds me of when the doctor discovered that stomach ulcers were not caused by stress, but by bacteria and are treated with a short dose of abx.  The entire medical field threw up their arms in disgust - rather than embracing his discovery. Of course, big pharma has lost out on years of 'purple pill' sales as well as all the OTC remedies.

Maybe one wouldn't develop Hashi's if they had sufficient iodine levels to begin with. I wonder what would happen if someone with Hashi's took iodine for a year or more? Would their Hashi's go away?  I can see that it might increase for a while.  Is there clear clinical evidence that iodine causes the impending damage to the thyroid (via TPO) or is this theory based on speculation.

It also makes me think about estrogen dominant cancers. So many women are put on drugs to suppress their hormones after having certain types of cancer. These women are then miserable.  Is it really our natural estrogen that caused the cancer or could it be all of the xeno and phyto-estrogens?  Should we really be suppressing our God given natural hormones, or should we be detoxing and eliminating the fake estrogens that our body doesn't know how to handle?

This are some of my thoughts regarding the iodine situation. Just trying to stay open minded.L

Yeah, I saw that. Good article.Of course, there is always an exception to the rule, but I don't feel the evidence is logical against iodine and Hashi's.
