...to go away. :)

Well, not exactly. My vision becomes completely clear for about half a day, but since I still have elimination problems, my vision blurs again, somewhat. But it's such an amazing feeling to know that my nearsightedness is NOT permanent. I'm confident that I'll be able to throw away my glasses after some more alone time with this magic little mineral. Iodine should be called the -real- "miracle mineral supplement," if you ask me.

Another change I've noticed... I'm no longer freezing all the time! It's 54 F right now and I'm wearing a T-shirt and sandals, at nighttime. By this hour you would usually find me ducking under the covers trying desperately to stay warm.

To those who are just beginning the protocol, here's a tip. I've been on Iodine for quite some time, about half a year, but it wasn't until I started taking niacin and doing salt flushes religiously that I actually started seeing improvements. I was miserable those first 6 months on Iodine and now I see a light at the end of the tunnel. Even if you don't feel the usual detox symptoms that others here write about, do salt flushes anyway. And the itchiness from a niacin flush goes away with Vitamin C and salt flushing. My niacin flushes are actually really pleasant now! Feels good to feel warm and cozy inside of my own skin for once.

ALA chelation ala Cutler has also made a huge difference. I was heavy in mercury when I first started iodine but ALA has made the metal mobilization of iodine a lot less troublesome. I do ALA on weekends and iodine Monday through Friday. Works well for me.

Something I have to point out is that I didn't start feeling bromide detox symptoms until I started consuming ozonated oil for the Ascaris HC program. That stuff really helped. My protruding eyes went away thanks to it. So I think the relationship between ozone and the toxic halides should be explored more, there might be something between those two that could be beneficial to the protocol.
