Common to have fungal die off when doing iodine regimen for candida?

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone--

I've just started the regimen of 6-8 drops of lugol's 3/day for 3

weeks outlined by Dr. Truss. I did two days of just 6 drops, then

today I did 6 drops twice and the itching got a lot worse. I was just

wondering if it is common for this to happen and if it could be die

off. Also, he says to only do it for 3 weeks, but what if you cannot

tolerate that much in a day, then can you stretch it out for longer?

, I am having exactly the same problem. I took 5 drops last

Saturday, and have been scratching like a hound. I couldn't continue

with the iodine. I am still scratching and waiting for the pruritus

(itching) to subside before I resume at 1 drop per day. The fungus is

literally coming through the skin, mostly at the extremities. As a

quick fix for itching, I wet the skin and apply sodium bicarbonate. It

lasts for a couple of hours, and then the itching moves to another

spot. It seems that the fungus has no where to go! Incidentally, I am

also alkalizing heavily when not taking the iodine. I take about 1/2

to 1 teaspoon per day of baking soda in water.

OK...a couple of questions about this. I have read Dr. T's protocol....

but I am wondering about the dosage. The Lugol's I bought is 2%. Therefore,

how many drops should I take?

Also...I have been taking the Idoral's...one half in the morning and then a full

one in the afternoon and a full/half at bedtime. Is this about the same as the

Dr. T candida protocol?

I haven't experienced any itching....nothing really other than a minor rash

under my watch. Does this mean I don't have severe candida? am I doing the

protocol properly?

Has anyone on this list recovered from Candida using iodine?

6 to 8 drops 4 times daily - for three weeks......is the candida/iodine

protocol.

if one tablet of idoral is the equiivalent of 2drops of full-strength lugo's,

then that would mean:

3 tablets of idoral 4 times times daily for three weeks?

is that correct?

Does that seem like a lot of iodine or should a person just jump into that

protocol for candida treatment?
