Guest guest Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 Hi , Just for the record, you are taking Mg.'s, not mcg's. In 2% Lugols, each drop is 2.5 mg. Are you taking the other companion nutrients, besides the unrefined sea salt? These are very important when taking iodine. That’s good you are feeling better after doing the Salt Loading. I hope you have read the Guide to Supplementing Iodine in our Files, where you will read the difference between the Salt Loading Protocol which is done a few times until bromide detox symptoms subside, and using salt daily, in water and in food. Best, -Kathleen moderator Thanks for advice: Iodine and sea salt. I have been using Lugols for 10 days, and was steadily increasing it, from 10mcg (4 drops of 2%) and have got it up to 10 drops now, 25mcg. But I was starting to suffer, blurred vision, tiredness, no get up and go, achy knee's, hot flushes (?) etc. I have been ummming and ahhhing about getting sea salt because of the cost, its so expensive online. But yesterday I found some Himalayan Pink sea salt at a health food shop for £2.35. When I got home I had two lots of 1/4 teaspoon in some warm water chased with two glasses of water, about 3 hours apart, plus some on my food. The change this morning is very noticeable, no blurred vision, I have spring cleaned the house, including cleaning the windows and washing down woodwork. My hot flushes have disappeared again and my knee's are much better. I will be keeping this up for the foreseeable future, if not life, if it works this well for me.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 I am doing the other supplements, I got the selenium and magnesium at the same time as the sea salt and have been using 2000 of Vit C, Vit B complex (highest dosage I could find as my B12 was very low), Zinc, Vit D 5000, iron and a multi vit. My hubby looks at me as if I am a junkie. What he doesn't realise is that his morning milkshake, lovingly prepared by my own fair hands, has about half the dosage crushed into it as he hates taking tablets. I am also sneakily adding the sea salt to his food as he won't tolerate the thought of sea salt either. The only one I can't get him to take is Omega 3 capsules as they form a film on the milk shakes and is detectable. I read the protocol, and as it was late evening I did what I thought would be a half way point between the different protocols. It didn't stop me being up half the night pee'ing like a tap. Morning doses only from now on. Again, my thanks to you all. > > Hi , > Just for the record, you are taking Mg.'s, not mcg's. In 2% Lugols, each drop is 2.5 mg.

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 Get my husband to eat 'health food'????? He would think I am trying to poison him. Thanks for the suggestion though. I will find a way. > > Hi , > > perhaps consider using chia seeds. They provide plant based omega 3. They also provide lots of protein which makes them appealing to athletes. > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
