Re: iodine increasing BRCA1 activity

Go to www.breastcancerchoices.org and read their materials.

Iodine prevents and cures breast cancer, period. It does not harm or

create cancer in any way shape or form. If you're taking iodine, you're

protecting yourself against breast cancer. I personally don't see the point

in taking that test since the results aren't very useful according to the

information I've read about it. I feel confident because I am protecting

myself with iodine.

Hi ,

I want to protect myself from BC too. I dodn't quite understand exactly what Dr.

Brownstein is saying when iodine is increasing BCRA 1 activity...

I take only 6,25 mg and I feel very good but I have an itchy throat since taking

iodine and I wonder if it is normal. I take 400mg of magnesium, 200 of selenium,

1400 of vit C,, iron, B6 and I ordered B2.I can't take B3 because I have

problems with my liver: I have a non-alchoolic steatosis.

How much of iodine do you take?

Recommended Vit C amounts are 3,000 - 5,000 mgs. You may need more. It sounds like you may have a detoxing reaction going on. There are many pathways that we detox from. Everyone is different.
