Thanks.

Here it is!

The most important for curing any disease is to understand what is

causing that disease.

Hypothyroidism is caused by 5 main causes:

-Toxins

-Defficiency of essential nutrients

-Poor digestion

-Poor diet choices, sufficiency of foods_that_kill

-emotional and spiritual problems.

-Toxins

- Mercury(amalgam,cosmetic,....)

- Nickel(tooth crowns,...)

- root fillings poisoning(bacterial infections)

-Defficiency of essential nutrients

-Essential Minerals

-iodine (sea salt,kelp,kombu,seaweed)

-trace minerals(sea salt,kelp,kombu,seaweed)

-Essantial Fatty Acids

- Omega3 LNA, alpha linolenic acid(Flaxseed)

-Vitamins (Vegetable,fruits)

-Poor digestion

-Bowel stuff,mucuse,parasites...

-Gallstones stones

-stress

-bad diet

-emotional and spiritual problems (meditation, relaxation,

forgiveness, love, light, ...)

So, now you know what is causing Hypothyroidism.

Now , you have become an expert in curing Hypothyroidism.

All you need to do to cure Hypothyroidism is to remove the causes.

It is that simple.

Congretulation! You are ready to receive your PhD in Hypothyroidism.

I am not kidding. Now you know more than 99.9% of doctors that are

trying to cure that disease with medications. (without succes)

Once causes are removed, body will come into balance, and her thyroid

gland will start producing enough thyrosine hormone.

This is what I would start with:

0.Dental cleanse (amalgam and nickel replacement)

for more information join dentalcleanseonelist

/subscribe.cgi/dentalcleanse

1.Avoid sugar

1.1Repalce table salt with unrefined seasalt(contain natural iodine)

2.Flaxseed oil - (for mor info join gallstones group,

or ask Robin :-)

3.Colloidal minerals, two tbsp. per day

4.Kombu or kelp powder capsules, or drinking kombu tea

5.Diet adjusted for her blood type.

5.Eat less foods that kill

(I don't believe she will accept this part!)

This program works with 99% of people.

Which ever part of this program she accept, Good for her.

Tell her to ask Robin for Advice :-)

You can talk with Annick Barefoot.

She have been going through this program, and she is now OK.(after 3

months.)

(I don't believe your mother will accept more advanced forms of

cleansing-gallstones,bowel,kidney,...that is why I do not talk about

that)

Do not run to the first dentist and change your amalgam.

Protocol for Amalgam-Mercury-Silver Filling Removal

By

International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology

PATIENT PROTECTION

First in every concerned doctor's mind is the protection of the patient

from additional exposure to mercury. This is especially true of the

mercury toxic patient. The mercury toxic patient may have been exposed

to varying amounts of mercury from diet, environment, employment or from

mercury/silver dental fillings. All forms are cumulative and can

contribute to the body burden. The goal of this preferred procedure is

to minimize any additional exposure of the patient, ourselves, or staff

to mercury.

During chewing the patient is exposed to intraoral levels which are

several times the EPA allowable air concentration. 2 During the removal

or placement of amalgam the patient can be exposed to amounts which are

a thousand times greater than the EPA allowable concentration.3 Once the

drill touches the filling temperature increases immediately vaporizing

the mercury component of the alloy. There are 8 steps to greatly

reducing everyone's exposure.

1. Keep the fillings cool

All removal must be done under cold water spray with copious amounts of

water.

Once the removal has begun, the mercury vapor will be continuously

released from the tooth.

2. Use a high volume evacuator

Therefore, a high volume evacuator tip should be kept near the tooth

(1/2 inch) at all times to evacuate this vapor from the area of the

patient. Polishing amalgam can create very dangerous levels of mercury

and should be avoided especially for the mercury toxic patient.

3. Provide an alternative air source

All patients having amalgam removed or placed should be provided with an

alternative air source and instructed to not breathe through their mouth

during treatment. A nasal hood such as is used with the nitrous oxide

analgesia equipment is excellent. Air is best and oxygen is acceptable

although not required. If just air is used it should be clean and free

of mercury vapor preferably from outside the dental office.

4. Immediately dispose of the mercury alloy

Particles of mercury alloy should be washed and vacuumed away as soon as

they are generated. The filling should be sectioned and removed in large

pieces to reduce exposure.

At present the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology

(IAOMT) has approved removal both with and without the use of a rubber

dam. Some evidence exist to support both views since high levels of

mercury and amalgam particles can be found under the dam. All members

are agreed that whether or not a rubber dam is used the patient should

be instructed to not breathe through their mouth or swallow the

particles. Some experts feel that it is better to remove the amalgam

first and then apply the dam if needed for restorative procedures.

5. Lavage, and change gloves

After the fillings have been removed, take off the rubber dam if one was

used and lavage the patients mouth for at least 30 seconds with cold

water and vacuum. Remove your gloves and replace them with a new pair.

If a restorative procedure is next then reapply a new dam and proceed.

6. Immediately clean patient

Immediately change patient's protective wear and clean their face.

7. Consider nutritional support

Consider appropriate nutritional support before, during and after

removal.

8. Keep room air pure

Install room air purifiers or ionizers and fans for everyone's well

being.

STAFF PROTECTION

OSHA4 5 requires that employees be given written informed consent before

the use of any toxic chemicals of which mercury is one. Elemental

mercury vapor is one of the most toxic forms of mercury and should not

breathed. Women of child bearing age should be exposed to no more than

10% of the OSHA MAC6. Women who are pregnant should be exposed to no

mercury.7 If you use mercury or remove mercury in any form the National

Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has recommended that

your employees be medically monitored annually.

ANY MERCURY EXPOSURE REQUIRES THAT THE EMPLOYEE WEAR AN APPROVED MERCURY

FILTER MASK.

An approved mask is appropriate for wearing during all dental procedures

which will expose you or your staff to mercury.8

The manner in which dentists operate their equipment dramatically

affects the amount of mercury released. Never drill on mercury high dry.

It is hazardous to you, your staff, and your patient. Levels as high as

4000 m g/M3 have been measured 18 " from the drill when used high dry.

Levels over 1000 m g/M3 are measurable upon opening an amalgam mixing

capsule.

One out of 7 California dental offices tested over the OSHA TWA of 50 m

g/M 3 . 100% of the vacuum cleaner exhaust tested over 100 m g/M 3 . Any

office where mercury is used should be tested regularly and staff should

be monitored for exposure. Testing services are available and a mercury

sensor badge is available for personnel monitoring. They should test

inside storage areas and along baseboards where mercury might have

dropped. Office spills can go undetected for years and are extremely

hazardous.

problem is.

I believe in the Basic Metabolism Test as being an accurate indicator

of whether a person's thyroid is hypo (under) functioning or " normal " Dr.

Broda wrote a book called " Hypothyroidism, the Unsuspected Illness "

and this book describes this test in detail.

One thing that should always be considered is that many areas of the country

has soil that is deficient in iodine which is a necessary mineral for a

proper functioning thyroid. Iodized salt is not an appropriate way to

supplement for the missing iodine. It is much better to eat kelp, ocean

seaweed, or ocean raised seafood to insure adequate iodine intake.

Hi Dawn

Do you have problems telling what is acting up ... I mean if it's your

thyroid causing the problems or the candida?

I thought my thyroid was getting real bad again. I'm on 175 synthroid

but the doctor says my blood work is fine. He says if the depression

doesnt' stop by my next appointment in about 6 weeks that he's going

to start me on some antidepressants. I feel like I'm going crazy.

I've gotten a lot of people mad at me because of my attitude. I'm acting

paranoid according to them. I have a fog in my head that I thought was from

my thyroid because it seemed to clear up when they upped my synthroid. I

was doing real good when I was exercising and dieting then I started a full

time job and everything went downhill.

I'm still not sure it's not thyroid. My skin is dry and itchy. My hair is

brittle and I've gained weight back. Doesnt' that sound more like thyroid?

thanks for any help

Hi, Renate,

Yes, that does sound like thyroid. But only your doc's tests can tell

for sure.

Good luck, and keep us posted!

Hello, My Doctor gave me a method on checking my own thyroid. Put a

temperature set by your bed. In the morning before you get up. Take your

temp. If it is below 98.6 several degrees your thyroid is down. My

daughters is 96.2 and stayed that way. They put her on thyroid because of

the test and the temp thing. Myra

It could be 's Syndrome, and not necessarily

Hi,

yes my problems started around the same time I had some major dental work

done. Mt doctors say they can not be sure it is the root of my health

problems ( candida, too many food allergies to count, low thyroid,

hypoglycemic etc) but they have all agreed that mercury can sometimes " leek "

into the bloodstream and depress immune systems. SO,

I am in the process of having ALL my dental work re-dome - mercury free. The

bad news, the cost will be $13,000.

My dental work consists of crowns, tooth rebuilds and root canals - I was

not aware that dentures also have mercury. I thought they were made from

plastic ?

toxin. Dental amalgam fillings are 50% mercury. Mercury is the second

most toxic substance on earth only after plutonium. The gold mining

industry had to switch from the use of mercury to cyanide becase mercury

is so toxic. Micromercury poisoning is so very toxic, that it is

transfered from the mother to the fetus, and is present in large quantity

when the baby is born. I am currently working with 7 different doctors,

one is a university research doctor, the other 6 are considered expert

specialists ramona you mentioned dry skin, I have had extremely dry skin

since birth, and have always had a tender spot under my chin on my neck

which feels inflamed. T. Dabney

Robin:

If you can avoid the cone biopsy you may be doing yourself a huge favor.

Biopsies create an electo-magnetic repair mechanism that sometimes forgets

to shut down, then its called cancer.

Many cervical smears are inaccurate and they want to do invasive techniques

based on these inaccurate readings.

The less you have done to your body, the less hassles you will have.

If a cervical dysplasia does exist, then consider taking...zinc, B6, B-12,

folic acid supplement

Either squeeze the juice from calendula [marigold] leaves and soak a tampon

in it and insert for 1/2 a day at a time...or douche with calendula juice in

aloe vera.

Biopsies are a mutilating invasion of a sensitive area [cervix]. Suggest

that you look after your own health and don't let others push you into herd

treatments.

The Hormone Regeneration protocol is designed to eliminate causes of

auto-immune disorders [if you have amalgam fillings you will want to

consider removal or continuous use of cilantro herb before and for 6 months

after removal. Either from Sanctuary herbs or from me]

Then, once the auto-immune factor is eliminated then Thyrodine will restore

full thyroid function.

Do you want a longish article that explains all this in greater detail??

hypothyroid

Well Earl,

Since it seems a lot of people are asking you questions about the

Natural stuff-I guess I will too.

I've been tired, and have complained to my doctor about it. The

blood test showed borderline hypothyroid. In May the number went up

to 11, and last week it jumped to 14.86. I don't have a lot of the

symtoms...just a little hair loss, and tired. But that's about it.

I've put off taking meds partly because I don't like taking any meds,

partly because I don't trust the " establishment " and partly because I

was hoping it would go away.

I started on the Dr. Whitaker's Forward Plus Daily Regimen vitamin

program, and thought I would start to feel better, but it hasn't

happened. Maybe I haven't given it enough time. But I was

interested in what was being said about the Thyrodine.

The dentist had mentioned not too long ago (while looking at my gums)

that I had some kind of autoimmune deficiency.

I am 40 years old. I am having a cone biopsy done in a few days for

dysplasia ( I don't know if this might be related to the thyroid at

all).

How do I pick which option will be best for me to take on the

thyrodine system???

Thanks for your help.

A cone biopsy is safe and a good means of diagnosing the problem. I am all

for the all natural approach but I would not be so daring as to tell someone

who has a precursor to cancer to ignore a medically proven approach that has

been around for so many years. When it comes to things so important go with

what is proven. Look around the internet for dysplasia. A cone biopsy can

many times remove all the bad cells. Dysplasia can be caused by many

different things but regardless of the cause the problem must be resolved

before you end up with invasive cancer. My wife who is also Hypo had a cone

biopsy after a hint of dysplasia and has not had a problem since. It is not

worth the consequences of a failed attempt the all natural route. A cone may

be more invasive but the potential problems call for an aggressive approach

and it is justified. A cone now is better than a hysterectomy later. Think

about it and if you still have questions get a second opinion from another

OB/GYN. Good luck!!

Jeff:

Typical medical scare tactics.

Invasive procedures are not statistically efficient ways of addressing

problems that have biochemical causes.

Removing " affected cells " does not address the cause. The biochemical

imbalance still exists within the blood and the cellular matrix.

Does it not seem feasible to address the probable cause rather that resort

to invasive mutilations that has no other redemming value than to " remove "

affected cells. [possibly as cervical smears are notoroiusly inaccurate].

What an incredably myopic view of pathology...to " remove the bad cells!!! "

Why not allow the " bad cells " to become " good cells " by addressing the known

deficiencies and utilization of herbal remedies that have been

naturopathically proven over centuries??

Cancer has never been suggested to be prevented by removing " bad cels. "

The only way I know of to prevent cancer, is to correct the biochemistry.

Sorry, if I seem hostile. I just have had to do undo so many medical

mutilations that I cringe when someone suggests these invasive procedures

while ignoring causes.

dysplasia, Robin

If memory serves me,

this is the word for " abnormal cells " in a pap,

or " changing cells " . Not necessarily bad ones.

are they sure they are bad?

or is that what the cone bio does?

did you have a pap like that several times?

my doc just had me come in for checkups every 3 months

first to see if it would recover on it's own, which it did.

Hannah

[Guest guest]

Dysplasia is when good cells and the dying cells become mixed together. The

good cells at the bottom are replaced and move out as they dye off. If the

good cells and the dying cells are mixed together there is reason for alarm

It is not the " normal " process of the skin to have a mixture of good and

dying. There can be many reasons that the cells could look like this but

chances are it is not something good. Anytime your body has a hiccup at a

cellular level you have reason for alarm. The reason a pap is not very

accurate is that the doc is taking a few cells from a wide area and not the

whole. If it localized then he may miss it for years before it gets large

enough for them to hit the bad spot. On the other had it he takes too deep a

sample it could easily pickup the good cells that are deeper below. Pap test

are only about 60% accurate and that may be a stretch but no doctor will

tell you they are 100% and to live with the decision of one test. The most

reasonable approach IMHO is to go from a single bad test to a colposcopy,

which is a scope that can rule out HPV and also possible detect a cancerous

area. The colposcopy is also a tool whose use is only as good as the doc on

the other side so if you question yours you may want a second opinion to

dispute their findings or confirm. If a colposcopy does leave question then

you would go for a LEEP which is a less invasive procedure similar to a cone

where a laser is used rather than a knife. This will give the pathologist a

cross section to work from and rule out error in pap test. This can also

leave some question as it is done with a laser that can destroy the edges

and in this case you would move on to a cone biopsy done with a knife to do

as little damage to the specimen as possible. Many time upon the taking the

cone the doc can see the affected area a take his section there and just

like the removal of a tumor the doc your attempt to get clean margins around

the affected area to remove all the affected cells. Taking a cone biopsy is

not looked upon by many as a test but rather an attempt to remove the

problem cells. Invasive or not cervical cancer that goes undetected is for

as little as 5 years can become invasive cancer and require immediate

hysterectomy or worse.

Hi Jeff,

You know what? I could go to my OB every day for the next month

and not get that perfect and full explanation. Mine here are the same

as the endos, no info, and skim the surface but only if you've begged for it

first.

If you happen to be an OB/gyn, I hope you find our area to practice in.

Thanks!

symptoms of that as well, and I was considering taking natural

supplements for it, since my blood tests repeatedly come back " normal "

(though I've read that doesn't matter). I went to Whole Foods and was

looking at the thyroid products, then figured maybe I should try to get

my yeast in control, and the thyroid might take care of itself. My mom

has all the symptoms of low thyroid and sometimes her blood test comes

up positive, and her doctor still refuses to give her meds for it,

because it's not ALWAYS positive. I've talked with my dr. about this

and about yeast, and she doesn't think either of them are

worth " worrying about " . Helpful.

==>Hi . Yes candida causes hypothyroid, Hasimoto's disease, and

overall organ malfunctions, including the adrenals. While I was curing

my candida over 20 years ago I took Lugol's iodine and natural

dessicated thyroid pills which was obviously too much tampering,

because suddenly as I was recovering from candida my thyroid went into

Please search for many other messages on this group about thyroid and

adrenals issues - they are often linked. I don't believe in tampering

with the thyroid nor in taking hormones, because as your body

normalizes it will overstress the organs involved. It is best to

consistently give your body the nutrients it requires so it can heal

itself. Individual symptoms aren't treated like doctors, which are not

the cause of poor health. Only overall improvement of health with

nutrients, elimination of toxins, and simple treatments like coffee

enemas, dry skin brushing, baths, etc. are done naturally.

Hi Bee,

I'm currently taking thyroid medication. I've been on the diet for

3.5 months, hope to see noticeable improvement in about a year from

now (given length of my CFS), but expect to be on for a total of 3.5

years (I'm 43 years old).

What's your advice for getting off thyroid meds? Is there a certain

amount of time after which I could consider going off? Or, is it

based on how I'm feeling?

Thanks,

==>Going off the thyroid meds cannot be based on how you are feeling,

nor on basal body temperature or anything else. I based my meds and

iodine on my basal body temperature and day it went zing from very

low to very high. My doctor explained it to me later, that over

medicating and iodine caused my thyroid to be overstimulated. When

the candida was being cured my thyroid was starting to normalize but

the meds and iodine overwhelmed it. My resting heartrate was 155 and

I could eat and eat and eat and still be hungry and not gain any

weight! It was awful.

I suggest you go of the meds cold turkey. It won't hurt you. Your

temperature may be a bit lower, etc., but also cold temperature and

other symptoms attributed to the thyroid also involve the adrenals,

endocrine system, and other organs, not just the thyroid.

Bee, thank you so much for telling me this. I was considering going back to

get those pills but now I definitely won't!

As I was reading this message, my doctor called to tell me I have very low

levels of vitamin D. I take a multivitamin once a day that has 400 IUs in

it, but she said I need to take 1000 IUs. Does you know if you can take too

much vitamin D? I'm thinking I'm not gonna be able to find a vitamin D

capsule out there with exactly 600 IUs, and I don't want to stop my multi.

The Canadian Cancer society is now officially recommending 1000IU of

Vit D a day for adults. I take 2000 IU as well as what I get with my

codliver oil.

==>Hi . I recommend 800 to 1200 IUs of vitamin D per day, and

some people need much more. My friend was taking 4,000 IUs per day

to get her vitamin D levels up; she was being tested every 3 months.

But vitamin A and D work together, and I recommend 20,000 t0 30,000

IUs of vitamin A too, along with omega-3 of course. All 3 nutrients

are found in cod liver oil, or IF you get enough vitamin D from the

sun (see my article for a description of sun exposure required) you

take fish oil for omega-3 plus vitamin A.

However, all of the " good " fats and other supplements and the diet

work together. There are 2 pathways in the body where it processes

oils, fats and oil soluble vitamins and all of them need to be

present.

It is very difficult to overdose on oil soluble vitamins IF they are

natural sources like cod liver oil and fish oil. Only synthetic

forms can create overdose conditions.

Please re-check my supplements list and also see the Folder in our

Files on " Cod Liver Oil " . There is a separate folder " Candida

Supplements " as well.

Luv, Bee

What is an IU compared to a mg? I know what IU stands for, but why doesn't it

go by mg?
