Steph,

With Magnascent, how many drops make 12.5- 100mgs?

Do you use your isodol 2x daily? How similar are they?

Using creme bi-est(80-20)Progest 0.3mg/25mg daily 3 wks.

Didn't know about the fat storage. Dangerous?Why?

Used for 4 yrs.

Won't go w/o it. Plz guide to a FAQs page if you have one.

Good to see your recording link.

As with other poster, noticed not so much hair is

falling out! Is taking the liquid magnascent or isodol

better than armour?naturthyroid - when they come back

on the market?

Thks.

Has anyone tried the " Nascent Iodine " found at http://www.thyroidnascentiodine.com/products.htm ? I ordered both the iodine and the magnesium and am waiting for it to arrive. I have been taking the Idoral 12.5 and this site compares it to both Idurol and Lugals.

It is very weak form of Iodine. Just .150 mgs / drop. Lugols is 6.25 mgs / drop.

Magnascent is .150 mgs per drop.

Divide the number of milligrams you want to obtain by .150 and that will give you the number of drops of Magnascent.

Steph,

So if I was taking 3 of armour before, how many drops of magnascent would that

be?

Also, wondered, for at least 10 yrs(54now) I have had hot hands, warm body all

the time even when it is cold-tolerate cold really well,but find at night in

winter-live in desert- need to put cap on head to keep heat from escaping in

order to fall asleep easier.Then ok after that. HOT hands are so uncomfortable

all the time.

Wondered if this was due to hypo.

And off of armour/NT for month now and sleep is light and waken mid night. MD

won't renew /prescribe till next visit next week. So using magnascent.

Also is kosher salt good or does it have to be sea salt?

Thanks,

I don't understand what armour has to do with getting from .150 mg Magnesent to 12.5 - 50 mgs of Iodide (remember that Magnascent is only one form not both as Iodoral and Lugol's are - Iodine & Iodide).

,

Armour is thyroid, magnascent is iodine. You don’t trade them

off. They help in different ways. Kind of like saying “How many apples equals

an orange?”.

Also kosher salt is still processed. Look at it, it is white.

That is salt that has been processed to remove all the other minerals. You want

unprocessed salt, some is sea salt, some from mines, but it must be

unprocessed. The most popular are Celtic, which is gray, Himalayan, which is

pink, and Redmonds, which is brownish/red.

Everything is a learning curve.I read others are on armour, nt, lugols, or

iodoral and once in awhile, magnascent, so still learning which is better, which

is what, and so forth. Also no one is mentioning menopause etc. As in

traditional readings say iron is not needed once you stop menses etc.

So, lugols and iodoral is better because they both have iodine and iodide? But

I don't want to deal with the detox yet,some are talking about, not yet, no $

for all the tests and extra supplements and so forth. I was referred to

magnascent, but after reading it would seem either ordering lugols or iodoral is

the better? way to go?

And you get either without prescription? Or can you? Then skip NT or armour

altogether?

Much appreciate the learning. Also enjoyed your taping.

Thank you for elaborating on my ?s.

ps. still wondering why hands are always so hot.

Thanks Donna.

So, when it comes available again, I go back on armour and order/use Iodoral or

Lugols so I can have both my " apples and oranges " ?!!!

Or not?

Forgive me for being befuddled.

Will go to health food store and get Celtic salt for food etc.

I will feel better how? with the salt? Thanks again.

Yes !

Some people may be able to lower their dose of Armour as their

body heals, but some do not. The iodine is just necessary in general to help

your body, the Armour is replacing what your thyroid is not making, in simple

terms. I know someone out there can explain it in more technical terms, but I

like the simple.

The whole salt will give you all the minerals that your body

needs to use/process the sodium correctly. White processed salt makes people retain

water, but the whole salt does not do that – ok, there are a few

exceptions, but there are usually other complications. When you take the whole

salt, it helps grab the toxins your body is releasing with the iodine, and

carry them out of your body. That is why you want to take it when taking

iodine. The recommendation is to take ½ tsp salt sometime in the hour

(or so) after you take your iodine, with plenty of water. Then use it liberally

throughout the day on your food, or just eat it to give your more toxin

clearing power.

Hope that helps!

You sound like the majority of people on the list who have benefited greatly from the iodine protocol. Be sure you take the appropriate companion nutrients for the whole protocol.

BTW since this is a new page on the blog I recently set up if anyone on the list has things they think should be added or explained please feel free to share what you would like to see on that page as well as either of the following pages. I know Steph is really busy and I am more than willing to get any info onto this blog on these pages or other pages we could add that would help with some of the questions we get on the list from new members over and over. It might be nice to have a page of results different people have experienced using iodine since we get lots of questions asking if it will work for certain things.

Hi, my name is Autumn, and I am new here. Someone recommended this site to me from the thyroid group I belong too. I am 36 years old. My problems are severe fatigue, anxiety, weight gain, mood changes, and headaches I have low iron and ferritin. Iron is 44 and ferritin is 16. I just had my blood work done this week for thyroid and it all comes back normal, the low end of normal, but still in the normal range. Will Iodine help me? Autumn IL

Excellent job Engtovo! I have been reading since 8:30am. Very informative. I also book marked it for future reference.I know my adrenals are fatigued. I have always complained to my doctors that I always feel like I'm on speed. Hopefully I can get my doctor to test my cortisol levels because I have all of the symptoms of adrenal problems.I know I need to reduce my stress levels and calm myself down, but are there any other supplements that I can take to help heal this and get back on track? I'm taking iodoral, 1 a day so far and the supplements and salt. Is there anything else that I can do to help my adrenals?Thanks! from IllinoisFrom: Engtovo <engtovo@...>iodine Sent: Thu, January 21, 2010 3:56:55 PMSubject: Re:New Here

, the Rhodiola e really seems to help mine. And LTheanine. And

adrenal cortex, tho i admit i havent been faithful taking that (too many pills

sometimes!) but some of the knowledgable ones here have said thats the only way

to rebuild the adrenal tissue and i agree.

This extract from Adele 's book" lets get well speaks" to the need of B vitamins

and in the case below of E

If the diet has been deficient in protein,vitamin e or the B vitamins sufficient pituitary

hormone cannot be produced. Vit E which is concentrated in the pituitary gland more than any other part of the body, is thought to be particularly essential. It prevents both the pituitary and the andrenal hormones from being destroyed by oxygen.

The andrenal cortex is even more sensitive to dietary deprivation. A pantothenic-acid deficiency causes the glands to shrivel and to become filled with blood and dead cells.

cortisone and other hormones cannot be produced and the many protective changes charecteristic of stress do not occur. Even a slight lack of pantothenic acid causes a marked decrease in the quantities released.The pituitary, adrenal, and sex hormones

are all made from cholesterol but without pantotheic acid, cholesterol cannot be replaced in the cells after being used up.

There have been a number of references in post to andrenal issues and the above throws some light on the problem.

Her books are available on Amazon, Alibris. Sometimes very cheap but increasingly

going up in price as they become collectors items.

It might be nice to have a page of results different people have experienced using iodine since we get lots of questions asking if it will work for certain things.

Also any important links that I don't have in the sidebar feel free to let me know

Thanks Cherly. This supplements stuff is getting expensive. I guess I'll just have to buy things here and there and in the mean time replace what I'm running out of.I'm so tired of struggling financially and that is my biggest stressor. I eat a well balanced diet and I just wish I could heal by eating right and my living habits. I think I'm not worrying and stressing, but maybe deep down inside I am. from IllinoisFrom: cheryl_b_1 <mossyforrest@...>iodine Sent: Fri, January 22, 2010 9:38:50 AMSubject: Re:New Here

The below financial issues is a problem yes.

Many would like to have all the tests and supplements but realistically

can't afford them.

When I get asked by suppliers to get involved, my first question is " Can a

family of four (example), on a limited income afford to add this product

on? "

It can get ridiculous.

The diet is major, knowing what foods to avoid (like the stuff in boxes/cans

mislabelled " food " ).

And knowing which have chemicals is the best place to start and makes a

major difference.

One good thing is the important basics like iodine, magnesium, vit c, D can

be found inexpensively shopping around.

Farmers markets when available are great. Ditto gardens.

I see why there were pioneers in the 1700's more now.

Sometimes knowing one is going in the right direction helps a lot.

One step in the right direction beats ten miles in the wrong one.

" I just wish I could heal by eating right and my living habits. "

Ditto for us all, but we are way ahead of the game knowing about iodine (and

supporting nutrients), and gaining daily in what we know here.

A distict advantage.

I know how that can be. Sticking with the iodine and the protocol is the most

important, other supps mostly move the healing/detoxing process faster. It's

easy to want to try them all(and i have a bucketful of unused supplements to

prove it) and most expensive is rarely better. Swansons is the cheapest Ive

founds and they have most brands and I dont own stock ;-)

And salt load.

>> I am really glad I found this group. I started taking 50 mg of Iodine a

couple of days ago, and ended up with leg cramps. I guess I need to take more

Magnesium for it? I take plenty of Potassium, so I know that isn't it.

Engtovo.

Then this may interest you,

This looks like low calcium levels, this from Adele :

Because low calcium levels act as a stress, the production of cortisone and aldosterone are stimulated and salt and water are retained in the body, often causing the breasts,hands ,face, feet to swell weight to increase 5-10 pounds

If the blood calcium has been allowed to drop so low as to cause stress causing puffiness and weight gain generous amounts of protein,Vit C, pantotheniv acid(B5) are needed in addition to D3, calcium and magnesium.

Bruce,

The post I sent was directly related to womens problems. Monthly cycles.

How it might be for men is unclear to me at present.
