Liking Iodine--Need more dosing advice

[Guest guest]

HI all,

I started Iodine about a week ago. Started with 12.5 twice a day and quickly

moved up to 12.5 four times a day. I am taking 30mg HC for adrenals and have

been for about 3 months. Have an RT3 issue not yet treated, but tired of

gaining weight and waiting for help from doctor, so I took the iodine plunge.

Loading test showed deficiency as well as Bromide problem. I started

supplementing sea salt about three months ago and have been taking Cofactors as

well as a bunch of other supps based on labs.

My questions are this.

1. Now that I am up so 50mg per day seemingly without issue, how do I know what

my optimal dose is?

2. Should I just take the 50mg all at once or keep splitting it up throughout

the day?

I have acne problems still. My energy level is better since starting iodine.

I've been gaining weight over the last few months especially since starting HC.

I have a different taste in my mouth a while after taking iodine. Is this the

taste of the Iodince or the Bromide pushing out?

Thanks for any advice,

Beth
