Guest guest Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 Cheryl, Thanks so much for your post. You answered a mystery for me. I had read a lot about how we are not getting the right kind of iodine in our foods but when I supplemented with the right kind', all three of us got depressed and didnt' feel good. When I posted a question on this to the slow-dose-chelation group, no one seemed to know why. Now I know to keep pushing on, though I will do it slowly. sally To: mb12 valtrex Sent: Wednesday, August 5, 2009 4:01:58 PMSubject: Re: iodine I keep seeing posts about Iodine and bad reactions so I wanted to reply even tho i usually just read. My son and I have been on Iodine replacement for 2 months. I personally believe the root cause of all of it (autism, adhd, depression, bipolar, auto-immune, everything!) is a malfunctioning thyroid (injured by vaccines) and Iodine deficiency, but i digress and didnt want to go into a long post about my theory, I belive Iodine is the key to the cure. The initial "bad" reaction can be likened to die off. Mine lasted about 2 weeks, was about as bad as a flu/cold. The improvments are nothing short of astounding. I have lost weight(25 lbs), depression, fungus, bacteria and most likely latent viruses. My mood and energy is remarkabley changed. My son's initial reaction was worse than mine (he's non verbal ASD and probably more latent viruses etc.) so i did lower the dosage and then pushed thru. It took about 2 weeks to level off. There has been no bad reaction since, even tho i increased him back to 3 drops per day. He is now at 4 drops per day. I am at 5. Lugols solution 2%.So I do believe that once you start the iodine the die off is what people are experiencing that experience a bad reaction. The more bacteria, yeast, fungus, virus, etc may determine how bad the reaction and a lower dosage may be warranted if the symptoms are too severe. It could also be the temporary Iodine increase in the thyroid causes hypothyroid symtoms, but that would level off too once the thyroid relearns how much it should "hold". But getting thru that inital discomfort knowing it wont come back can help. had many behaviors that have been controlled somewhat thru biomed (taurine, mb12, gaba, relora, etc) but never eliminated. If the biomed stopped the behaviors returned. Now, those behaviors are dissappearing completely with iodine replacement. His attention is much better. His verbal "chatter" is increasing.He has many more calm moments. I have smelled the same metallic smell in his BMs as when chelating. His acne is all but gone. He is losing body fat noticably now but I havent weighed him. The changes in him the last 2 months are nothing I ever saw with just biomed and just too many to list! I still give him Tyrosine, magnesium,calcium, gaba, taurine, selinium, mb12,zinc,molybdenu m and biotin. However, now if I forget to give him the biomed he doesnt turn into a screaming bouncing laughing boy. His aggressive behaviors, also somewhat controlled with biomed are gone now. So while it may cause discomfort for a few weeks, the benefits are amazing and I would recommend everyone do further research. All the biomedical supps help treat the symptoms, the Iodine treats the root cause of the symptoms. Cheryl >> Every dr my son has been to has said the same thing about iodine and I think it is probably true. My son could not tolerate it, so we never used it. I use it and love it.> > jo> > My son's new dr, who is D.O. but uses homeopathic, etc in his practice mentioned high levels of iodine having helped some kids with their attention issues. Has anyone ever done this? I don't remember the exact amount, but it was well above the toxic level. > > > > Thanks, > > Martha> >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 What brand are you using and at what dosage? Subject: re: iodineTo: mb12 valtrex Date: Monday, August 10, 2009, 1:51 AM We use Bladderwrack (iodine) which helps naturally chelate aluminum which is why it helps get rid of the root of the problem!
