Yes it is common to have detoxing through the sinus cavity. Are you using the supporting nutrients? Maybe try to use a netti pot and flush with some saline solution using unrefined salt.

very strange symptom -- ??

Each time I start up on Iodine (starting 3rd attempt), I get a sinus infection. I'm a "sinus-y" person to begin with, but it's like the Iodine goes on a 'detox field day' in my left sinus cavity. Clearly, the yucky stuff needs to go but I'm wondering -- has anyone else heard of (or experienced) this? Any idea why? Any suggestions to make the process easier? I clearly need to power through this.Thank you!Trish

how much iodine have you taken? you may need a higher dose to knock

it out. also lots of vitamin C.

My thoughts on why ... in addition to the sinus cavities there are many glands

and ducts in the skull (including the jaw line) and I think this pressure and

gunk is related to die off of bacteria or fungus. Some people also get really

dry mouths and throats and why that occurs is because there are " stones " (look

up tonsiloliths) that can block the salivary ducts. Sometimes a white " stone "

can be seen behind the tonsils (or in the area where the tonsils were) - and I

think these stones are bacteria's with a biofilm made up of calcium and other

minerals. They will either come on out on their own or can be dislodged at

home with a Q-tip.

Consider this from Dr. Brownstein - " Iodine has many positive

therapeutic actions. It is a potent anti-infective agent. No virus, bacteria or

parasite has been shown to be resistant to iodine therapy. I have found that

providing adequate iodine to provide the body with iodine sufficiency markedly

decreases the number and severity of infections in these patients.

And Dr. Mark Sircus - " " Though it kills 90 percent of bacteria on the skin

within 90 seconds its use as an antibiotic has been ignored. Iodine exhibits

activity against bacteria,

molds, yeasts, protozoa, and many viruses; indeed, of all antiseptic

preparations suitable for direct use on humans and animals and upon tissues,

only iodine is capable of killing all classes of pathogens: gram-positive and

gram-negative bacteria, mycobacteria, fungi, yeasts, viruses and protozoa. Most

bacteria are killed within 15 to 30 seconds of contact. "

Adding a bit of Lugol's to the saline in the netti pot or a nasal sprayer may

also help. Perhaps pulse dosing the Iodine would also be an option for you.
