Hi len:

If we get low

in Iron, can we not just take an Iron supplement? I was taking a Liquid Iron

(Floravit) and my Iron came right back up.

I thought it

would. Did you not take Iron?

Thanks,

Bonnie

That's

interesting because I also have low iron and I have yet to notice any

improvements either. I haven't had my iron levels checked recently, but for the

past few weeks I have been tired, weak, and foggy. I started having

palpitations and arrythmia yesterday. I'm wondering if my iron has become

depleted again. I was taking 150 mg of iodoral. I am taking a break from iodine

for a couple of days to see how I feel.

Did you

get tested for adrenal fatigue? Or are you just taking isocort based on

symptoms?

Thanks,

. I am ignoring what they say about iodine, although I do have

questions about some of what they say. I have decreased iodine from 100 mg to

50 because I have low iron and a comment on *this* list said iodine *could*

compromise iron.... my iron started to go low when I increased the iodine to

100 mg. could be coincidence, though. I like iodine, I agree that it's probably

helpful, but I personally have not noticed *any* improvements while on it. I

*have* noticed improvements from taking Isocort and working seriously on my

adrenals.

I guess I was

interested in hearing what other things they are recommending - besides

avoiding iodine - that might be harmful. I just want a head's up so I don't

blunder into something. I am trying to take their advice (so far) seriously.

to heal my thryoid and overall health. I now take 175mgs per day.

It is important, I think, to remember that the power of the iodine protocol is

highly misunderstood by disinformed people who may have the power to influence

you. You have to think for yourself, check your gut feeling and make an

informed choice based on reading the new member document and Dr. Brownstein's

books.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

Just sayin,

The AF group tell me one thing then tell one person that has the same problem to do something else.

I do not like the group. I feel they are misinformed. I take 50 mgs. of Iodoral. I am low in iron of 100 and very low in ferritin of only 17.

I took blue bonnet iron but could not tolerate it. I caused severe constipation. so i had to stop it.

I don't feel any better on Iodine either.

I am on HC for adrenal fatigue.

I was also told by the leader of the group that she has Lyme's disease. BUT she says you must treat the adrenals and thyroid issues before the lymes' goes away.. THIS is so not true...

YOU must treat the Lymes' disease first and foremost.. It is deadly.

I do have it, and haven't yet begun treatment since my appt. with a lyme literate doc is not tilll June.

SHe became irate when i told her she was misinformed about the lyme's. She will not talk to me anymore.. LOL.. I don't care since they never seeem to know what they are talking about, and i don't think after reading so many of the group's comments and questions that they help or heal anyone.

They all seem to stay ill an dnot get better.

Anyway just wanted to jump in and tell you, i do not listen to a thing they say. I just watch and feel so sorry for the ones who do what they say to do.

They are suffering.

She wouldn't ecen post my comment about Lyme's saying that all should be tested for it, since it cxan cause adrenal fat. and thyroid issues. An d the pain that comes with lymes is the same as what the people tlak about on the group.
