Re: eczema a detox symptom?

[Guest guest]

If you're taking Lugol's, drop back your amount slightly. You can do that by

diluting a drop in

in a measured amount of water or juice, then only drinking half of that amount.

But yes,

you're right, it's no doubt bromide detox, and those symptoms can mimic diseases

the

person has had in the past. But with skin stuff, we want to back down the

dose, let the new

lower dose soak for a while, and continue to work on your detox pathways.

Woops I'm sorry you said Iodoral. You can cut the tablets so you're only

getting 4mg or so.

Lugol's is easier to titer small doses.

Thanks

One interesting note is that the eczema got worse on a day that I forgot the

ultraClear, so i think it is definately making a difference.

My allergies are also worse. Red, itchy, burning eyes, increased sneezing and

sinus congestion. My eyes are killing me. I can't wear my contacts unless I

take a Zyrtec (only 1/4 tab) and even then, I can't wear them all day. I hate

taking allergy pills because of the " rebound " effect. It helps to take it, but

then the symptoms get worse when it wears off.

Yesterday I tried increasing my ultraClear to 2 scoops. Hpoefully that will

help. I'm going to run out soon. Should I get more, or is there something

better?

I'm not an expert on the use of that product or others like it so can't address

that.

But if you're having intense detox symptoms, you need to decrease your iodine

dose.

Hi MJ:

I’m

wondering why you have become sensitive. How much Iodine are you taking?

I know! I'm wondering that myself too. I'm only taking 3 mg of iodoral a day.

Things got worse when I tried increasing to 6 mg. I'm guessing that I have a

pretty high bromide burden. I went through a lot of detoxing over the years

when I had candida, multiple intestinal parasites and bad bacteria, and heavy

metal toxicity. Its been over 6 years sinse then but maybe my liver is still

also over burdened as well from all the detoxing.

I can't really push through the bromide detox because the eczema can get bad if

I don't take a break from the iodine. The other day I actually had a patch of

eczema that was open and bleeding. Not good to have oozing cracked bleeding

hands when working in healthcare! One day break from the iodine and it dries up.

Now it is not itchy, but just dry with some little red scabby bumps. When I did

mercury chelation therapy my hands looked like I had leparsy or radiation

exposure! It was disgusting! Not sure why my body chooses the skin on my hands

so much of my detoxing!

Any suggestions?

There are several natural antihistamine products that really help. One is N-T-Hist, another is D-Hist. Or you can take the supplements separately, which are Vit C, Quercetin, Bromelain, and Stinging Nettle. Donna in IL, moderator My allergies are also worse. Red, itchy, burning eyes, increased sneezing and sinus congestion. My eyes are killing me. I can't wear my contacts unless I take a Zyrtec (only 1/4 tab) and even then, I can't wear them all day.

Thank you so much Donna for some natural alternatives for my allergy symptoms!

I'm going to check those out.

I actually stopped the 6 mg iodoral for 3 days and there was practically no

change in my eczema, so I started it back up and I feel so much better! More

energy and a clearer feeling head, eyes are less tired. this is pretty amazing

because I also have my period right now which is usually the worst time of the

month for me. No pre period headache this month either! I'm just going to stay

at 6 mg for a while and continue detoxing. I'm getting some TLC from Zen and

will try to do at least 1 coffee enema per week. Maybe there is even some

homeopathic cream for eczema that I can put on at night. Also keeping my

humidifier going non stop will help as well.
