Guest guest Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I LOVE rhubarb! I took one LDN today after two days without. I decreased my Iodoral to 1/2 (100mg) also 2 days ago. Sorry I took the LDN. Again, I woke up in the middle of the night (now) with sweat pouring out of my head and body. Since I took the LDN at 1 PM I was great until about 8 PM when I crashed and went to bed. I think I will take LDN off my list, at least for awhile. Maybe I have used it enough and do not need it anymore? Pamela Valley wrote: I found that eating rhubarb quite a few times seemed to end my hot sweats.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 Maybe I can find it locally (but probably not at WalMart!!!) I'll have to do some research on the benefits of rhubarb - there must be a reason my body loves it! I have in the past made rhubarb pie with xylitol. I'll need to find more recipes though. Raw it is quite bitter. Baker wrote: Rhubarb freezes well and is a frozen fruit product in Whole Foods, bags of diced fruit.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 Hi, I'm new to the group. Since you mentioned menopause and hot flashes, I would like to know how I can tell the difference between hot flashes due to menopause and excessive sweating due to hypothyroid. I'm 52 and my cycle stopped a year ago when I started to take iodine. The sweating seem to be getting worse. > > > > > > > > > I found that eating rhubarb quite a few times seemed to end my hot > > sweats.

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 I only had two night sweats. I started taking magnesium every night at bedtime and using progesterone cream regularly. That ended any night sweats, and I am now going through menopause without any symptoms.

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 I thought I heard that you should take magnesium with food. Is that correct? I take it in the am because I don't want to eat right before bed but would like to try it at pm if food isn't required for absorption.janet iodine From: Donna@...Date: Mon, 23 Jan 2012 16:42:14 -0600Subject: RE: menopause-hot sweats I only had two night sweats.

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 I take magnesium with or without food, and don't have any problems. I take it in the citrate or glycinate forms, as these are well absorbed.ShaunaOn Mon, Jan 23, 2012 at 9:21 PM, Janet A <seaofqi@...> wrote: I thought I heard that you should take magnesium with food.

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Another form of magnesium which is highly absorbable is magnesium-L-threonate.You can read more about it at http://www.lef.org/magazine/mag2012/jan2012_Reversing-Brain-Decay_01.htm OlusholaOn Mon, Jan 23, 2012 at 10:11 PM, Shauna Boren <skboren@...> wrote:  I take magnesium with or without food, and don't have any problems.
