Guest guest Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 It wasn't salt but Potassium Iodate that was used in breads. This was replaced with Potassium Bromate. It's different than salt. The salt that is used now is not iodized. iodine for bread In reading much of the articles from Dr. Brownstein and other iodine websites, he states that iodine use to be used to enhance bread. I make my own bread from wheat that I have just milled and am wondering about using the iodine for a dough enhancer. Does anyone have any suggestions? Also, I would highly recommend anyone with "gluten intolerance" to check out this website www.breadbeckers.com as I use to be on a gluten free diet along with all of my children. My great aunt is the author of several gluten free books, I have them all! Someone mentioned to me that it was the flour that was bad. I ignored this comment, then several months later my husband attended a talk about milling wheat and making bread and other grain products from fresh milled grains as opposed to store bought flour. Having once been on a gluten free diet, I can truely say that the fresh milled grains have done more for me, are much more tasty and definitely much more liked than the gluten free. the website again is http/www.breadbeckers.com Fresh milled grains are worth a try, but again I am looking for help with the iodine for the bread as it would be a good way to get a little more iodine into my children.Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 The only thing that bothers me is that Ezekial bread uses soy lecithin.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I don't know. I know that Sally Fallon doesn't like it in the bread. Maybe it's not enough to make a difference. Maybe some of the bad stuff is cumulative though. Who knows? I just skip the whole thing and make my own. Nothing a child would eat but I'm more interested in health than taste and children are grown and gone. On Nov 5, 2008, at 5:34 AM, Bbircie@... wrote: n a message dated 11/4/2008 9:10:51 P.M.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 How interesting! For just the past week, my wife has been using radiation pills (potassium iodide) to aid in anti-caking. She uses 1/2-pill, which contains 32.5mg. It works quite well. A week before, we were experimenting with making 100% whole wheat using baking soda in addition to dry yeast. The bread rose to the top of the breadmaker, but was so crumbly, it fell apart when touched. We eventually hope to adjust the proportions of KI and baking soda to have a loaf that is as high and fluffy as the equivalent white bread. Yes, we know that white bread contains alloxin, which causes diabetes, in addition to the goitrogen bromide. The pure, 100% wheat loaves are too dense and small. Is there a significant difference between potassium iodide and potassium iodate put into bread for anti-caking properties? I have no idea where to get the latter, so I used KI. > > In reading much of the articles from Dr. Brownstein and other iodine > websites, he states that iodine use to be used to enhance bread.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I buy the ezekiel sprouted cinnamon raisin bread and it does not say soy lecithin as one of its ingredients. Maybe on certain breads they have the soy lecitin and on others not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Barb, You might want to do some research. Soy, like bromide and flouride are anything but healthy and should not be in a human body!!Nonie In a message dated 11/4/2008 9:10:51 P.M.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Maybe they dropped it. Sally's tape was a few years ago and maybe there was pressure to stop. I will read the labels when I next go into Whole Foods.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Barb, Perhaps not, but, I am rather fanatical!! Especially, when I'm spending about $300 a month trying to get my health back. Just looked at the label of the selenium I bought from VRP and it says contains soy! Not on their website, though. Can we say fraud?? I will be calling them tomorrow, hopefully calmer than I am now.Nonie In a message dated 11/5/2008 4:06:37 P.M.
