OT - Chelator of Mercury w/ Iodine

[Guest guest]

I wanted to add my two cents here. My Dr. is Dr. Brownstein

(www.drbrownstein.com ) and he is working with Dr. Abraham and Dr. Flechas in

clinical studies on iodine. You can view his video here - look for Video number

1 on this subject. http://vitamincfoundation.org/videos/#BROWNSTEIN He is in

the process of setting up a lab in his office to test bromide, fluoride,

chloride and mercury excretion in the urine. There is a lab that currently does

this and they are finding that mercury is being released - especially when

taking a Loading dose of Iodoral (pill form of Iodine / Iodide). They are only

in the beginning stages of this but have been working on it for several years.

So before you discredit this - there is more to the story. I work very closely

with this Dr. - not only as a patient but as a researcher. I am also the

moderator on the iodine group on Yahoo. You can check out our website as well

www.iodine4health.com . There is something to it but the mechanisms are still

being investigated.

It is completely discredited by current and existing data.

The knowledge of both research and basic physiology suggested by the above

discussion

also essentially guarantees the results are of no utility.

I don't dispute there is a lot of benefit for many people in taking adequate

iodide, I simply

dispute that it increases mercury and lead clearance to a clinically significant

extent, or

helps clear it out of any relevant body compartment. I am correct in that view,

too, it isn't

a matter on which opinions may legitimately differ among any with expertise.

I do sometimes suggest people use iodide, and am very supportive of using it

when people

tell me their doctor has prescribed it.

This is not a particularly easy thing to do, I am curious what methodology he

intends to

use.

You can e-mail him and ask him. info@... is his e-mail address.

Just explain who you are. I have talked to him a bit about your method of

chelation. He may not remember you but you can tell him your interest and I am

sure he will be happy to share with you what he is doing and the scientific

basis behind it.

Thanks for posting these links, ! I just ordered Brownstein's iodine

book. I hope it discusses doses for children too. I have been giving my 11 year

old 4 drops of Lugol's a day for the last 2 weeks. I am going to start dividing

the doses, instead of all 4 at once.

What do you think about painting? Is that an accurate way to determine iodine

deficiency? I remember painting my daughter last year, and it was gone almost

immediately. She has always had low energy/low stamina. I am still waiting on

her hair kit from DD to arrive.

In one of the videos, Brownstein starts discussing iodine/iodide. He says both

forms are good, because some organs prefer one form and others the other form.

Then the video cuts off. Can you please explain this a little more in depth?

We are in IL, thus likely deficient in iodine. We use Real Salt, which isn't

iodized, and we always eat local produce/meat when we can. Actually all our meat

comes from MI, and the beef is grass-fed, so the animals are likely iodine

deficient too. Most of our produce is from IL/WI/MI.

Thanks,

Did you read this?

http://www.optimox.com/pics/Iodine/IOD-09/IOD_09.htm

or this?

http://iodine4health.com/ortho/debate.htm

His book does not cover children because as a rule he does not treat them. He

has me giving my kids 3 drops of Detoxified Iodine 3x / week.

Tables 2 and 3 are missing from this article. I really want to take an article

in for my ND this morning. Which ONE article would you recommend? I have to

leave in about 3.5 hours.
