Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 It's important to be on iodine when on armour because the armour depletes the body of iodine faster. Your metabolic rate is sped up. Dr. Brownstein uses this combo with hashi's all the time. I am on both but I do not have a thyroid due to cancer so I cannot speak to the hashi's aspect. My husband has hashi's but is not on Armour at this point only 50 mgs of Iodoral.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I am on 135mg of armour ...i wish i could lower it becuase i feel likes its not even getting into my cells AT aLL. Would iodine help? If I dont' have access to the loading test, can I go by the patch test and try iodoral pill? > > It's important to be on iodine when on armour because the armour depletes > the body of iodine faster.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 If you armour is not getting into the cells then you need to check your adrenal status as cortisol is what gets thyroid hormone moving. Iodine helps your thyroid to function better - along with other glands.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I am new at Iodine. I have had Hashi's x 15 yrs. I started Armour in Dec 07 and treat my adrenal fatigue with hydrocortisone. Once optimized I started iodine. I have had some trouble with detox and strain on my adrenals. When this happens a take a couple days off from the 50 mg of iodoral. I believe I am need iodine and tested deficient. I just go slow. I am new at this, have learned a lot here. I know I was nervous too because you read that it may be bad for Hashi's when in fact you really are deficient. You just have to go slow if detox too much. good luck. You can order the load test over the phone and get a free consult with Flechas. Should be under the files part of this site I think. That is what I did. > > Is anyone on both armour and iodine, with hashimotos - can you tell me > ofyour experience?
