Re: Iodine Deficiency

Hi Cheryl, This sounds interesting. How did you know how much iodine to give

him? Did you do some kind of an iodine insufficiency test? What is pecs? My

son also improved on iodine, but I don't think he is taking enough. He is only

taking what is in the Super Nuthera plus 1 tablet of iodoral at 5 mg. I would

like to know more. What brand of iodine are you using? Thanks. Rose

"My son now only takes Iodine, Vit C, Magnesium, Selenium, Natural Salt and a B Complex. He is never sick now. He has no self injurious behaviors. No agressive behavior (tho mag, b6, taurine, theanine and rhodiola did help this before iodine, but if i forgot any of it, the consequences were horrid)."Cheryl,My son is hyper and aggressive without his GABA and L-theanine. "Horrid" is a good word. So iodine supp has eliminated the need for your 'anti-aggressive cocktail?' Do I just have blood work for iodine levels? His thyroid levels are para-hypo, so I sense this could be an issue.

It seems to me that there are very few if anyone here using iodine supplementation and since I believe that iodine is the key so many of you are missing i thought i would post.

I have been using biomed for my son with autism for about 5 years. He is 17 years old, non verbal.

I tried just about everything with him, Andys protocol, MB12, a long list of supps. Granted he started biomed late compared to most(age 12) and the improvements he saw then were mostly in calming his agressive and self injurous behaviour. Not much else.

About a year ago he began iodine supplementation. After reading everything i could about iodine i believe it was the key that was missing. Within just a few months he went from using about 10 pecs to using over 75 of them. There has been a definite shift in his health, cognitive and behavioral abilities. The difference is night and day.

So for many of you that arent finding recovery or have tried everything and seen little to no improvement, or even for those that see improvement with a long list of supps, i would recommend researching and trying iodine.

The first few weeks are a bit ruff as the die off from latent virus is fairly swift. Like a moderately severe flu. Iodine kills bad Bacteria and parasites, too. There is some research that it clears gut biofilm. He doesnt have any of the behaviors associated with yeast anymore or latent strep. Going from daily constant yeasty behavior to nonexsistent. He started dumping metals after a few months(i could smell it and had been thru that before). He bagan eating different foods after about 4 months. His digestion seems perfect now, goin from constipation to regular/normal bms daily. There are just so many improvements it's hard to think of and list them all.

I believe iodine deficiency is the root cause of autism and hundreds of other diseases. The vaccines damages the thyroid (among other things) which leads to iodine deficiency. The declining nutrients in the food supply havent helped the situation. Iodine deficieny leads to a host of auto immune problems and the body's inability to remove metals, parasites, virus, bacteria and toxins.

Becoming iodine sufficient attacks the problem at the root.

My son now only takes Iodine, Vit C, Magnesium, Selenium, Natural Salt and a B Complex. He is never sick now. He has no self injurious behaviors. No agressive behavior (tho mag, b6, taurine, theanine and rhodiola did help this before iodine, but if i forgot any of it, the consequences were horrid).

He has learned sooo many new things this last year. He is communicating like never before. It really is amazing! And for me, the weight loss(after a lifetime of not being able to lose weight), total end of depression and never being sick has been pretty amazing, too.

I use Lugols. Kelp is not a good source of Iodine, there are alot of toxins in

most of it, source matters. Iodoral is also available, the pill form of Lugols.

What prompted me to post was reading all the supplement lists people are using

and saw none with iodine on it. I read the digests daily, dont usually post.

There is a test to know for sure. Or you can go by the estimate that 95% of the

population is deficient. Or go by your symptoms.

I always found it curious that parents of children with autism seem to have

thyroid and auto immune disorders. And depression.

Constant viral illness. Abnormal digestion. OCD behaviors. All the autistic

symptoms. Bladder infections. Inability to excrete heavy metals. Obesity.

Fatique.

Any of those symptoms suggest iodine deficiency. There are many. Iodine makes

everything else work.

I have used it. It is more expensive to use than Lugols. Basically the same

of iodine. I have often wondered if my daughter could benefit from it. She is

3.5 years old and weighs 34.5 lbs. What should the dosage be for her? She wants

to eat straight salt sometimes at dinner....could this be a symptom of lack of

iodine in the body? She also suffers from severe yeast issues that we just

cannot get under control. She has been on Diflucan, Nizoral, and Nystatin

without success. So glad you posted this info as I do feel that we just keep

I was researching my own thyroid problems and found so many similarities between

the thyroid and autism that i thought it might help him.

I believe without doubt that every person with autism needs iodine. I think the

iodine fixes the immune system, fixes the pathways, so that the body is able to

clear the virus, bacteria, metals, toxins and fungus.

Salt craving is a sign of adrenal problem. Using processed salt(kind in blue

box) would add insult to an already compromised immune system. If you are using

natural sea salt, let her have as much as she craves(up to a 1/2 tsp). You might

see a change in mood. Anxiety levels. Part of the iodine protocol is natural

salt. I can really tell when my adrenals are screaming for salt when I am

annoyed by little things. I take 1 tsp in water and lots on my food per day.

Start with 1/8 to 1/4 tsp or at least that much on food to begin and see if the

craving stops or you see signs of improvement elsewhere. Let her dip her finger

in it and lick it, thats how i get it in my son. Followed by 8oz of water.

Iodine Dosage for children is dependent on their symptoms. There are some docs

that suggest just 1 drop a day to start (a little less than 3mg) there are

others that think 12.5 mg is better for the severely afflicted.

If my child was that age and size i would start with 1 drop and work up to 3

drops over a period of several weeks, then continue that for several months, if

alot of improvement it's probably enough, if not much improvement then probably

need more. Vit C, Magnesium, Natural Salt and B Vits are all needed to help the

iodine work properly and help the body heal. If the person already has liver

issues then using milk thistle is important.

There is ALOT of yeast dieoff when first supplementing with iodine. Once gone

tho it doesn't seem to return. I can't even remember the last time i heard the

yeasty giggles or saw the yeasty bm's and he was a very yeasty child.

Cheryl,

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide me with so much info. Do you

think that the adrenal problem could be associated with an iodine deficency? Or

do you think there could be seperate issues going on? I hope I am not asking to

many questions, but I do respect the advice from my fellow biomedical mother's.

We use both kosher salt and sea salt. We already have Vitamin C, Magnesium, and

a Multi with B's in place as well as Liver Life. I am going to order some iodine

tonight. I was looking at ordering Lugol's but should I order the 2% or 5%

solution? I would do just about anything (as long as it is safe) to get rid of

her yeast issues. I can smell it on her when it is acting up (she also has

thrush sometimes). I will start with one drop. How long did your son's yeast die

off last? Did you do a completely sugar free diet to help get rid of the yeast?

Thank you again,

Sharla

Iodine patch I painted on me and the kids, mine was gone in 3 hours, kids was gone in 4. Of the iodine videos I've watched on youtube, if it disappears within 8 or 12 hours, you're deficient. I've been taking Iodoral.How do you know if you are deficient in Iodine? Pamela It seems to me that there are very few if

anyone here using iodine supplementation and since I believe that iodine is the

key so many of you are missing i thought i would post.

I have been using biomed for my son with autism for about 5 years. He is 17

years old, non verbal.

I tried just about everything with him, Andys protocol, MB12, a long list of

supps. Granted he started biomed late compared to most(age 12) and the improvements

he saw then were mostly in calming his agressive and self injurous behaviour.

Not much else.

About a year ago he began iodine supplementation. After reading everything i

could about iodine i believe it was the key that was missing. Within just a few

months he went from using about 10 pecs to using over 75 of them. There has

been a definite shift in his health, cognitive and behavioral abilities. The

difference is night and day.

So for many of you that arent finding recovery or have tried everything and

seen little to no improvement, or even for those that see improvement with a

long list of supps, i would recommend researching and trying iodine.

The first few weeks are a bit ruff as the die off from latent virus is fairly

swift. Like a moderately severe flu. Iodine kills bad Bacteria and parasites,

too. There is some research that it clears gut biofilm. He doesnt have any of

the behaviors associated with yeast anymore or latent strep. Going from daily

constant yeasty behavior to nonexsistent. He started dumping metals after a few

months(i could smell it and had been thru that before). He bagan eating

different foods after about 4 months. His digestion seems perfect now, goin

from constipation to regular/normal bms daily. There are just so many improvements

it's hard to think of and list them all.

I believe iodine deficiency is the root cause of autism and hundreds of other

diseases. The vaccines damages the thyroid (among other things) which leads to

iodine deficiency. The declining nutrients in the food supply havent helped the

situation. Iodine deficieny leads to a host of auto immune problems and the

body's inability to remove metals, parasites, virus, bacteria and toxins.

Becoming iodine sufficient attacks the problem at the root.

My son now only takes Iodine, Vit C, Magnesium, Selenium, Natural Salt and a B

Complex. He is never sick now. He has no self injurious behaviors. No agressive

behavior (tho mag, b6, taurine, theanine and rhodiola did help this before

iodine, but if i forgot any of it, the consequences were horrid).

He has learned sooo many new things this last year. He is communicating like

never before. It really is amazing! And for me, the weight loss(after a

lifetime of not being able to lose weight), total end of depression and never

being sick has been pretty amazing, too.

Check it out, Iodine may be the missing piece of the puzzle you have been

searching for...

Can you just get iodine from the store, paint it on you and wait and see?

Iodine patch I painted on me and the kids, mine was gone in 3 hours, kids was gone in 4. Of the iodine videos I've watched on youtube, if it disappears within 8 or 12 hours, you're deficient.

I've been taking Iodoral.

How do you know if you are deficient in Iodine?

It seems to me that there are very few if anyone here using iodine supplementation and since I believe that iodine is the key so many of you are missing i thought i would post.

I have been using biomed for my son with autism for about 5 years. He is 17 years old, non verbal. I tried just about everything with him, Andys protocol, MB12, a long list of supps. Granted he started biomed late compared to most(age 12) and the improvements he saw then were mostly in calming his agressive and self injurous behaviour. Not much else. About a year ago he began iodine supplementation. After reading everything i could about iodine i believe it was the key that was missing. Within just a few months he went from using about 10 pecs to using over 75 of them. There has been a definite shift in his health, cognitive and behavioral abilities. The difference is night and day. So for many of you that arent finding recovery or have tried everything and seen little to no improvement, or even for those that see improvement with a long list of supps, i would recommend researching and trying iodine. The first few

weeks are a bit ruff as the die off from latent virus is fairly swift. Like a moderately severe flu. Iodine kills bad Bacteria and parasites, too. There is some research that it clears gut biofilm. He doesnt have any of the behaviors associated with yeast anymore or latent strep. Going from daily constant yeasty behavior to nonexsistent. He started dumping metals after a few months(i could smell it and had been thru that before). He bagan eating different foods after about 4 months. His digestion seems perfect now, goin from constipation to regular/normal bms daily. There are just so many improvements it's hard to think of and list them all.

Hi Sharla,

I like the 2% myself as the 5% is rather strong to use transdermally, which i

like to do. You didnt mention Selenium. Very important when supplementing

iodine. Some people use brazil nuts rather than a pill.

Deficiency in iodine can manifest with adrenal issues.The adrenals and thyroid

are all connected. Actually, all the systems are connected. And every system

requires iodine to work correctly. Iodine availability has an " order " . The

thyroid takes what it needs and whatever is left goes to other organs, breast,

ovaries, glands, etc. If none is left after the thyroid gets what it needs, then

the other parts get none. The breasts, adrenals, ovarys, prostrate all need alot

of iodine to work properly, when people have issues it's typically because there

wasnt enough iodine to go around.

The dieoff didnt last very long. Started strong and tapered off. A few weeks

maybe. Then it was gone. We still eat sugar.Never stopped. Not alot, but some.

Doesnt seem to bring yeast back at all anymore. Before, the giggles were

definetly more frequent after sugar.

> Cheryl,

> Thank you so much for taking the time to provide me with so much info. Do you

think that the adrenal problem could be associated with an iodine deficency? Or

do you think there could be seperate issues going on? I hope I am not asking to

many questions, but I do respect the advice from my fellow biomedical mother's.

We use both kosher salt and sea salt. We already have Vitamin C, Magnesium, and

a Multi with B's in place as well as Liver Life. I am going to order some iodine

tonight. I was looking at ordering Lugol's but should I order the 2% or 5%

solution? I would do just about anything (as long as it is safe) to get rid of

her yeast issues. I can smell it on her when it is acting up (she also has

thrush sometimes). I will start with one drop. How long did your son's yeast die

off last? Did you do a completely sugar free diet to help get rid of the yeast?

Most stores have Povidone, which is 1% and can be used transdermally, not

internally. Some stores also have Iodine tincture, which is stronger. Tincture

is only used transdermally, too.

Good evening,

Where did you get the iodine patch?

I really think iodine is something I need to investigate for my son.

Any particular brand of iodine patch?

Thank you,

Jerry
