Naturopath who doesn't want me to use iodine

[Guest guest]

Hello,

After reading Dr. Brownstein's book, I decided to start supplementing with

iodine 2 months ago. I'm still having some detox issue's (mostly acne) but I'm

also sleeping so much better and my body temperature has risen a degree.

I met with a naturopath as I know I have thyroid issues. She took some blood

work and wants me to do a saliva test. She had me bring in all my supplements

and asked me why I'm taking iodine. I have many issue's and I know my thyroid is

one of them. She'd rather just treat me using Armour (if need to).

Now I'm confused on what to do. I know there are so many benefits to using

iodine and she doesn't seem supportive to me using it. She was pretty adament

that I stop. Unfortunately I do not live in an area where there are many

naturopath's. If she does have me on Armour, I have no idea how much iodine to

take. I personally feel like I need to keep taking it. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi There (?),

Couple of suggestions. Before you go see her again, study The Guide to Supplementing with Iodine that is in our Files. You will then be able to educate her! You can also lend her Dr. Brownstein's book! If after that , she still doesn’t want you to take iodine, find a new Naturopath! Seriously!

Another suggestion; since Armour was reformulated, many folks are not having good results with it. I take Naturethroid which is also a Natural Thyroid Hormone and works very well. I take 3 grains a day , I also take Iodoral and have been doing this for years. Others report good results with the NTH, Erfa, that is from Canada. As a matter of fact, when one is on thyroid medication, it is very important to also take iodine along with the companion nutrients. Hope you are taking those too!

Again, if she is adamant that you stop iodine, she clearly has not been educated on the importance of iodine for every part of our body!

Kind regards,

Kathleen

Hi Kathleen! Thank you for your response. I am taking the companion nutrients

thankfully. I'd love for the acne to go away. I will give the naturopath Dr.

Brownstein's. I know that iodine is so important and if she isn't willing to

work with me I'll have to search around. Thanks again!
