When I was pregnant with my son I had a bunch of skin tags form in my arm pits. After he was born they went away. At birth we found out that I have three sets of rare recessive platelets and my immune system was attacking his dominant platelets as he was forming inside me. He was born with a critically low count of platelets and he had to have platelet transfusions and IVIG transfusions for a week after he was born. After 4 days he started to form platelets on his own and was able to go home within a week.

My skin tags went away after he was born and I have not had any more since. Oddly enough I also had a rash on both hands that went away while I was pregnant with Stan, but the rash came back again after he was born.

I don't get sick very often and when I do I usually get well quite quickly. I think both skin tags and my rash have something to do with my immune system.

Cheryl, can you tell me what you know about moles and and tags? They run on my mom's side. I have them. My boys have them. They're popping up more and more on the boys as they get older. I always wondered if it was a sign of something (my mother's side of the family is c-r-a-zy....lol, but seriously...) Is it a sign of deficiency? -tammy

A speedy metabolism is good as long as the nutrients are being utilized. If he is having to eat 10 thousand calories to function, it might be too speedy. If he is eating just a little above normal(swimming burns those calories!) and he has no issues then its probably good. If muscles are good-well defined not soft, digestion is good, energy level is good, skin(no moles,tags,rashes) hair and nails are normal, no colds, flu or allergy. No worm sign. No depression, anxiety, irrational fears. No OCD, hyper or manic behavior. Little to no body fat. Regular sleep patterns. If all of those are good a person is probably healthy. Someone else may have a different definition of healthy, thats mine. So look at the body as a package of all those areas, then decide if you see complete health or there might be diet changes ( learn about oxalates and goitrogens, others depending on symptoms) or vitamins, minerals

needed to reach it. Healthy people tend to not have the halide buildup in cells, so they are already more Iodine saturated. There isnt the need to do the high dose Iodine protocol. The 12.5 mg is usually recommended as a maintenance dosage, you may need less because you weigh less. If you have issues you may need more, and/or diet changes. Iodine supplementation still needs to be in conjunction with a comprehensive nutritional program including minerals and vitamins or the equivelent in food. Cheryl>> I think so. We are all

pretty thin. I am the heaviest looking in the family and I'm 5'6" 120 lbs. My son is very thin 4'8" 60 lbs. He has a killer metabolism but needs iodine to offset all his pool ( chlorine ) exposure. For me it caused die off and then made me feel better.> > Sent from my iPhone >

lol Well, it may address the root cause of your cellulite because iodine painted

over fat does provide a slow steady absorbtion for the entire body. But

cellulite isnt a skin condition. Its a connective tissue and fat condition.

Permeable connective tissue. Full of holes or herniations where fat pushes thru.

Probably (maybe, depends on several factors) estrogen dominance created from

slightly off (or way off) thyroid hormone levels. So the iodine (and vits and

minerals and good food) would balance the hormones to create a healthier body

that is able to process rather than store fat so the cellulite would be

eliminated.

Hi Cheryl, my 6-year old son has finally put on a few pounds in the last couple of months, but since then I've noticed a slight dimpling on his butt, like cellulite. I'm really surprised to see that on a young, thin boy. Could this be an estrogen imbalance? What should I do about it?

 

lol Well, it may address the root cause of your cellulite because iodine painted over fat does provide a slow steady absorbtion for the entire body. But cellulite isnt  skin condition. Its a connective tissue and fat condition. Permeable connective tissue. Full of holes or herniations where fat pushes thru.

Probably (maybe, depends on several factors) estrogen dominance created from slightly off (or way off) thyroid hormone levels.

Might be, dont know. A doctor can do a hormone panel. An adrenal test might be

the first place to start cause when adrenals are off the hormones can be off.

Raw carrots are suppose to help regulate estrogen levels. And they are good for

parasites so a multiple benefit. Goitrogens like raw brocolli,

peanuts,soybeans,cabbage, turnips, spinach will effect hormone levels, too. In a

bad way.

I have no idea about this, but you are making me wonder...could iodine cause

someone with a high metabolism to gain weight? My husband (who is not a skinny

guy) has recently lost 42 pounds through healthy eating and exercise. He added

iodine, per my recommnedation, and all of a sudden he can't lose anymore weight,

in fact he gained a few pounds. I say he has a high metabolism because he lost

the weight very quickly after he adjusted his diet, and, how do I say

this....based on what he used to eat, he should have been much, much bigger to

start out. Make sense? So I think he has a high metabolism that was slowed down

by iodine...is this possible??? Thanks! R

need iodine? My family are all very thin and I thought you tended toward being

overweight if you didn't have enough iodine. My daughter has the same body type,

tall and willowy. Thanks, Kim

Sometimes the supplementation of iodine causes a reverse reaction with the thyroid (supposedly temporarily) where the thyroid action slows (I guess as it adjusts)I don't know this from experience, but it is one of the reasons I hesitated to start the supp.
