Chloride from NaCl gets out bromine?

[Guest guest]

It just hit me yesterday that all the literature says to use salt

loading to get out the bromine that your body is detoxing because the

chlorine gets the bromine out. I don't know much about chemistry,

but I don't see how the chlorine would get the bromine out. I am

assuming

the bromine detox is happenning because the iodine has displaced the

bromine, and I don't think bromine can link up with chlorine. Maybe

there is something else that is supposed to be going on and I just

haven't come across it yet. It would seem more likely that the Na

would link up with the bromine, but that's only if bromine replaces

chlorine in any given solution.

Either way, I've stopped drinking the salt water and started making

potassium broth type soup and feel much better. When I was doing

Gerson Therapy several years ago I read a lot about the

sodium/potassium balance, and I'm reading/leaning in that direction

again. Potassium helps your body let go of toxins, while salt makes

your body hold on to them.

I wonder why bromine detox would cause pain to begin with? Pain is

inflammation, so what type of inflammation is it causing? This is

important to know to help figure out how to ease the pain. Salt

water doesn't do it for everybody.

Sorry for the rushed sound of this message, but I wanted to post this

before I go to work and I'm running late. I don't mean to be

cynical, I just have a lot of thoughts going on in my head now that

my brain is turning back on.

Take care everyone,

Betsy,

The salt is sodium chloride, not chlorine.

Way different things.

arent chlorine and chloride in the same family though?

Donna,

Salt, NaCl, is a combination of sodium plus chlorine. Actually there

are a lot of different salts. The information about salt loading

says that it's the chloride part of the NaCl that is detoxing the

bromine. The chloride part of NaCl, if it were to split, is

chlorine. Chlorine is a halogen, along with iodine, bromine, and

fluorine. They can all attach to potassium or sodium, but they can't

attach to each other. If the iodine makes your body detox bromine,

it is somehow displacing it from where ever it's being stored by your

body. If anyone knows exactly where it is being stored, for example

inside the cells, and what form it's in (is it stored as potassium

bromate and the other entire molecules such as the flame retardant

chemical), or is it simply by itself. Mostly I am wondering why

detoxing it would cause pain, while having it in your body doesn't

necessarily cause pain.

Chlorine, bromine, and fluorine, like iodine, kill bacteria.

Bacterial die-off in the body causes inflammation and pain. Is that

what's happenning when you start to replace the bromine with iodine?

Is only the iodine causing the die-off, or is the set-free bromine

causing die-off, too.

This may not seem to matter, but it really does. It matters because

there may be other things you can do to help your body while you're

detoxing.
