Re: Iodine and weight loss

[Guest guest]

Kathy...

Most folks here have trouble loosing weight. What's your diet like?

Are you eating healthy amounts of fat? Olive oil, coconut oil, nuts,

avocado, organic butter? What about protein? Are you eating enough

protein for your weight?

Are you dealing with hashimoto's ? Have you considered going on a

parasite cleanse? You might have some nasties stealing nutrients from

you. I've heard good things about Humaworm from curezone.

Would that it were that simple!On Jan 25, 2011, at 9:55 AM, Alarcon wrote: I want to share two paragraphs that I found on iodine.How iodine accelerates weight loss by supporting the thyroid glandby Dani Veracity, citizen journalist If adjusting your diet and exercising more hasn't helped you reach a healthy body weight, you may have hypothyroidism, or an underactive thyroid gland. In addition to weight gain, other symptoms of hypothyroidism include a bad complexion, fatigue, forgetfulness, loss of sex drive, impotence, irritability and unhealthy hair, nails and teeth. Fortunately, you can help normalize an underactive thyroid gland by increasing your intake of the mineral iodine."The healthy functioning of the thyroid is essential to maintaining metabolism and preventing the accumulation of body fat," writes Burton Goldberg in Alternative Medicine. An underactive thyroid gland slows your metabolism; you thus burn dramatically fewer calories and feel sluggish. In addition, in Asian Health Secrets, Letha Hadady explains that an underactive thyroid gland promotes excess weight and cellulite by causing water retention.
