Maybe because they know cortisol interferes with melatonin, which can make

it more difficult to sleep. Of course, taking melatonin can solve that.

(They used 1 mg in studies, found it worked very well.)

Before starting Lugol's Solution, I had barely dreamed in years, except

occassionally when eating peanuts before bed. Anyway, I now dream every

night, and feel like my sleep is far more restful.

I do agree, the 4 times daily regimen seems to work better for some of us.

lack of dreaming is a B6 deficiency. B6 should be taken to "dream recall" and that's the dose you need

What I said is on Lugol's Solution I started dreaming for the first time in

many years. I dream almost every night now, which I can remember the first

few minutes I'm awake. (But, then they fade awake like dreams.)

So, lack of dreaming may also be iodine deficiency.

I had the same reaction to iodine regarding dreaming and sleeping well.  I have taken B6 for many years for PMS symptoms.  So for me it was definitely the iodine that made the difference.LinnOn Nov 13, 2006, at 10:11 AM, Skipper Beers wrote:>From: " Gikas" <skg59comcast (DOT) net>>lack of dreaming is a B6 deficiency.

Way too many others!!!LinnOn Nov 13, 2006, at 5:46 PM, jtb14789 wrote:My dreams came back big time when I started on Isocort & Lugol's. I started both the same day, so I can't say which had the biggest influence. Happy, bold, full of color dreams. I didn't realize what I was missing until they were back. I remember them well in the morning & often can recall details later in the day. I have to wonder when I see that commericial for prescription sleep medication with President Lincoln & the groundhog, saying how the the man's dream friends miss playing with him. I didn't need medication to get back to my dreamtime playland. I wonder how many others are taking prescriptions when what they need is hormonal or nutritional support.  .
