Re: What is the reason for increased magnesium supplementation w/iodine?

Magnesium is a basic component of orthoiodosupplementation. It acts as an antioxidant in this case.

"We have incorporated a total nutritional program with orthoiodosupplementation, emphasizing magnesium instead of calcium..."

"Combined magnesium and iodine/iodide deficiency based on the concept of orthoiodosupplementation are the basic factors involved in the oxidative damage caused by excess H2O2 (Hydrogen-Peroxid) and reactive oxygen species. If this proposed mechanism is valid, orthoiodosupplementation,30 combined with magnesium intake between 800-1,200 mg/day, a daily amount this author recommended 21 years ago 98 for magnesium sufficiency, should reverse autoimmune thyroiditis. This nutritional approach is also effective in Graves' autoimmune thyroiditis as previously discussed...."
