Guest guest Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Well, I guess no one can relate to my previous e-mail. My sense of smell has been heightened all day long and the only thing I did new or different was to start the Iodine. Not sure about the logistics of how or why, but I can only surmise its related to the Iodine. Vj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 I'm very new to this, as I have only been taking iodine for two weeks. (Which is why I didn't answer sooner.) But I can tell you that my urine has been horribly smelly the whole time, and some of the bromine detox symptoms mention body odor. Could that be what you are noticing? > > Well, I guess no one can relate to my previous e-mail.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Hi Vj, I don't know much about all this but I do know that when my thyroid first went haywire I lost my sense of smell (have some but very little). I quit smoking at the same time and usually, quiting makes your sense of smell better, not worse. So perhaps, your thyroid is functioning much better, hence, the better sense of smell?

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 I really don't know, but the improvement in the sense of smell was almost instantaneous. It'll be interesting to notice changes, if any, over time.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 I'm not sure since this is so new to me, also. If it is bromide detox, it was almost instantaneous. Thanks for sharing the urine report; it helps to know commonly reported experiences.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Val, I have noticed sometimes that my body sort of anticipates a good thing with some immediate response like that. Maybe at a homeopathic level all you need is a whiff. Then I have to let all that work down to the physical level. Maybe someone will understand what I am talking about, hopefully.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 I'm not noticing a smell. What does iodine smell like? I'm on Iodoral, I don't have a smell associated with it. (Now Selenium -- STINKY!) What I *have* noticed, is that my urine is VERY pale now. I was expecting it to be darker, or at least yellower, and it's a bit disconcerting that it is nearly clear. I'm not drinking any more than usual. Just a weird observation.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 The sense of smell is related to the liver function. People who suffer from cirrhosis often lose their sense of smell. This enhanced sense of smell may be a sign that your liver is working more than usual. For detox after taking iodine for example. This happened for me too and was transitory. Went away as soon as I drank water + freshly squeezed lemon. Hope this helps!

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 As my thyroid is healing with Iodine and Armour, my sense of smell has improved dramatically. A diminished sense of smell is a hypo symptom. BarbF In a message dated 6/28/2008 6:58:55 P.M.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Interesting...I'd never heard that about smell and hypo. Thanks for sharing. I just took my second dose a few minutes ago (20 drops/2%/50mg in a glass of water, and felt a tingling sensation in my throat, a concentrated awareness in the thyroid area. Hope I'm doing it right. vj From: Bbircie@... <Bbircie@...>Subject: Re: Sense of Smell and Iodine Useiodine Date: Sunday, June 29, 2008, 7:50 AM As my thyroid is healing with Iodine and Armour, my sense of smell has improved dramatically.

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 I also have a heightened sense of smell when I have used iodine recently. I thought it might be from a positive effect on my chronic sinus issues. -- In iodine , " victoriahjones " <victoriahjones@...> wrote: > > Well, I guess no one can relate to my previous e-mail.

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Isn't it amazing?! I'm not experiencing excessive "iodine" smells like the first day, now just an overall increase in smell sensory which I don't mind at all. Last night (3rd day) I did experience some uncharacteristic wakefullness. Will see what tonight is like; I took the same amount of Iodine this morning--50 mg.>> Well, I guess no one can relate to my previous e-mail.
