Michele,

I really have no knowledge or experience with thyroid issues and what options

you have. It seems like you may be between a rock and a hard place if kelp is

the only non-drug option and you also want to stay 100% legal on SCD.

I think has quite a bit of knowledge about thyroid.... I know he

mentioned something about " Lugols iodine " as a supplement on the Vitamin K list

(which I know you're on, too).

He has his own list, too.... you might want to go over there and ask him. They

discuss a lot of other things beyond SCD.

Re: Kelp

What is a person supposed to do for a thyroid issue? I don't want to

take meds, SCD isn't going to cure it, & I can't ignore the problem.

Very frustrating.

Hi ,

I just got off all thyroid meds!! I did a detox for metals in my body and

it has started functioning fine on its own again. My doctor said copper in

the body interferes with thyroid hormone. I had mercury too. Just food for

thought.

Michele,

One more thought. I took a supplement called " Iodine and Tyrosine " , am

still taking it. It's from Thorne and is SCD legal.

Elaine has mentioned that after doing SCD,many people find that they

need less thyroid meds. I agree that you should get 's help.

Yes it did help my thyroid. The doctor said it was part of what helped it heal.

I also took extra of it when the weather got cold, as that effects the thyroid

too.

Did this definitely help your thyroid? I have to check if it's okay

for nursing moms though...

Thanks, Michele

I had Hashimoto's too, but now it is completely gone, no more antibodies!!

You have to get your filling replaced before you can do a detox, or else it

will draw mercury from the filling and make you worse. I did a homeopathic

called " Metal Free " that I sprayed under my tongue in the mornings. It is a

very slow detox but that was better for me, I could not tolerate chelation.

My body needed to go slower. My doctor said excess copper is a big culprit

in thyroid problems, and the homeopathic got rid of that too. Also, copper

is in the water where I live so I got a water filter and drink bottled away

from home.

I started the " Iodine and Tyrosine " supplement 2 winters ago when I started

getting thyroid symptoms even while on my medicine. It made me feel better

and I did not have to increase my medicine that year. I am still on it

because it supports your thyroid and helps it to function well.

My doctor is a kinesiologist. He is also a chiropractor. He is not an MD

but has helped me more than any of them have.

One other thing about Mercury, 3 doctors have told me that Candida binds

with it and you can not fully get rid of the Candida until you clear out the

Mercury.

Hope this helps.

-- [Norton AntiSpam] Re: Kelp

- I would REALLY like to know more about your heavy metals

detox, if you don't mind. I am hypo-thyroid as well, on the fast path

to Hashimoto's as well, per my last thyroid profile done Jan 2006. I

feel pretty tired most of the time, even though I take Thyroid 75mg

daily. I hate taking the meds. I got the thyroid issues after the

birth of my first child, Ben. I am VERY interested in getting a detox

done, and I have been looking to get my one mercury filling replaced

soon too. And if this would help the thyroid issues, that would be a

huge bonus. I need to be as healthy as possible with all we have

going on here! Any info would be much appreciated!!!! And info on

when you started the " iodine and tyrosine " supplement too would be

great as well...

p.s. What kind of doctor do you see for these issues?

Thanks -

:-)

Hi ,

My " Iodine and Tyrosine is by Thorne. It is SCD legal. Check your

ingredients. The " Metal Free " is by Bodyhealth. The website is www

bodyhealth.com. I use 1 squirt under my tongue per day. It IS expensive

but totally worth it! I live in North Carolina, sorry I can't help with a

doctor. I think word of mouth is the best, when you find people who have

had success with a doctor. I found mine through a woman who had children

with asthma. My doc had healed them and they were off their meds.

Keep us posted how you do.

-- [Norton AntiSpam] Re: Kelp

Thanks so much ! I really appreciate the info. :-) I ordered

the " iodine and tyrosine " (by Pure Encapsulations, right?) online

tonight. I think I found the " Metal Free " one too. Is the one you are

using found on the website www.metal-free.com? It says it has 240

doses. How many does per day did you use, as I noticed it was pretty

expensive. The funny thing is that my son's " DAN " doc has a whole

commentary on that website about how he recommends it highly, but I

have never had him mention it to me in the past whole year with him!

We did the whole glutathione nebulizer instead (soooo hard on Ben) to

detox heavy metals, and I pulled it two months ago b/c it was pure

hell to watch my little boy in agony. I will be asking his doc again

about it when I talk to him! But meanwhile, I want to try it out for

sure (after I get the one filling replaced of course!) I would love

to be able to do something about the thyroid problems, and if it

works I could recommend to my parents too (both hypo...dad is

hashimoto too). Thanks again - ;-))))))

p.s. Great about your " doc " . I agree with these more homeopathic docs

being better to use. What state do you live in? I need to find a

good one here in Georgia....

[Guest guest]

Good for you ! This diet has improved my health already. My doctor

keeps telling me how much better I am every time I go to see him. I have

been on the " Metal Free " for almost a year. I take the lowest dose and am

doing it slow because that is what my body needed. My doctor tested me for

metals and Mercury before he put me on the detox. Go slow with your detox

if you need to, releasing too many metals in the body at once can actually

make you worse if your body is not strong enough to handle it. This diet

should make you stronger. One other thing, make sure your dentist uses

protection so you do not inhale any Mercury while he is taking out the

filling. The vapors will go into your body and be more toxic than the

filling.

-- [Norton AntiSpam] Re: Kelp

Thanks much ! I am getting my filling out this Saturday morning!

I am so exicted to finally have it done. Honestly had I not seen your

post, I would have probably delayed it again. I am hopeful htat my

overall health will improve with starting the SCD diet, and getting

the metals out. So, thanks! Also, one other question...how long have

you been taking the " metals free " ? Did you do heavy metals test to

see if you were dumping things? Thanks - ;-)

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

The thing they put on for protection is called a dam. If you inhale the

mercury fumes they will go straight to your brain which is one of the places

mercury lodges itself. If your dentist does not use some sort of protection

I would find a dentist who does and have them remove the mercury, then go

back to your regular dentist. Mercury is not something to play around with,

it can cause all kinds of symptoms.
