Guest guest Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 I did the test a few weeks ago and tested very low on iodine. Within a couple of days taking the iodine supplement, I felt very jittery. My doc advised me to cut my Westhroid dose in half. Lab work last Friday showed my thyroid to test in the normal range.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 Great news Kenda! Does that mean you get to cut the Westhroid indefinitely, or did you drop it entirely?

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 How much Iodine is safe to take as a supplement? I think I need to take it too.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 I take two drops of Oregano Iodine a day . . . You'll need to get it through a naturopath since it isn't sold strictly OTC.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 I use Lugols solution, 1/2 strength, and I never go more than 2 drops. You can get too much iodine, so a little goes a long way.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 I was able to cut the Westhroid dose in half. I am hopeful that I can stop taking it entirely in time. I had only been taking Iodine for about two weeks when I had the labs run. I would think that I should redo the Iodine test as well to see if I am still low in it. If I am, hopefully I will be able to stop Westhroid entirely and boost Iodine. Kenda > Great news Kenda!

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 I don't know of a safe dose, my dose was recommended based on an Iodine secretion test. Since you are dealing with hormones, I wouldn't advise simply taking Iodine without being tested. Kenda > How much Iodine is safe to take as a supplement?

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 Actually, I felt good on my Westhroid dose. The dose worked well for me and was well regulated. I did have to increase it once during the several years I took it but that was it. I feel just as good taking Iodine as I did on the full Westhroid dose. Kenda > Yeah ! !
