My 3rd time asking and no reply.

Hello:

Perhaps I should KNOW this answer but I don’t and I’ve

asked already with no reply.

How could it possible help any organ in the body, by

painting the skin over it?

I don’t get it.

Thanks,

Bonnie

Hi Bonnie,

I don’t know the scientific answer to your question, but I do know that when people use castor oil packs over the liver, the castor oil is absorbed and somehow helps to detoxify the liver. And when folks with thyroid nodules are painted with iodine, the iodine gets absorbed and helps the nodules shrink. Breast tumours also shrink when they are painted with iodine/castor oil. Like I have said, I don’t know how this happens, but maybe because the skin is the largest detoxifying organ, maybe it works in reverse? Hopefully someone else will chime in with a better answer. I love the mysteries and the miracles of the human body when it comes to healing!

Best,

Hi, I thought I would chime in here.

I would imagine it works similarly to the way bioidentical hormone replacement

creams work -- it doesn't matter where you place the cream on the skin -- the

estrogen/testosterone/progesterone is absorbed into the blood stream via the

skin. Then, as it circulates the bloodstream, it goes to to all the

estrogen/testosterone/progesterone receptors located on pertinent organs.

In the case of iodine, I imagine the same thing is happening. Iodine molecules

are absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream, then, they head towards

wherever iodine receptors are in the body (which is pretty much everywhere).

The more receptors on the organ (such as the thyroid gland), the more iodine

gets absorbed there.

I would also imagine that wherever you paint the iodine, the body starts

" activating " the receptors in that one location on your skin too, to bring in

the increased load there. Perhaps there might even be an increased number of

receptors created in that one spot.

Yes, it is one of the miracles of the human body that hormones go to their

specific receptor and fit in there like a " lock and key " . Iodine molecules will

ONLY fit into iodine receptors and no other. If an organ or cell has the

receptor for that hormone, that hormone will be " let in " and will be able to be

utilized. If an organ has the receptors, but the receptors aren't working for

some reason, then that hormone " can't get in " , and will circulate round and

round in the bloodstream (making your blood values seem artifically high, by the

way) until they are metabolized by the liver and cleared from the body.

I hope this helps!

Bonnie: if you're looking for some sort of authoritative dissection of what

happens at a molecular level in every case I suspect no one here is going to be

able to satisfy your curiosity. Iodine -- or KI -- when applied topically and

supplemented with a carrier like DMSO does seem to alter (usually beneficially)

the underlying tissues in some degree or other. The nature and degree of effect

depends on what kind of tissue you're talking about: muscle, tendon, cartilege,

connective, organ, etc., and what the local issue is. Or maybe it's just how

much DMSO got used. Other variables include how thin the overlying tissues are

(ie, how deep is the problem and how well-defended?) and how susceptible the

problem may be to resolution. Speaking for myself alone, I don't just " paint "

for a local problem, I paint, use DMSO, apply heat, movement (if it's a joint or

muscle issue) and since I'm also taking iodine internally it's hard to declare

that topical application is or is not successful whether I do or don't get

exactly the results I'm hoping for. Iodine does travel through the dermal

layer: while a single application is unlikely to accomplish much, repeat

paintings may provide tissue buildup in the area one hopes to affect and if the

area, like an ovary, is one that is susceptible to iodine uptake, who knows ?

perhaps that's how it works. I certainly have no personal knowledge or

laboratory experience so this is pure speculation on my part. I would suggest

that when you ask something three times and no one responds, it might be safer

to assume that an answer is simply not available here, and perhaps be a trifle

less peremptory in requiring a reply.
