Which ones actually detox the bromin...

I am on 120 drops (40 in the morning, 40 in the afternoon, 40 at night) of Lugol for about a month now. Taking the proposed companion of Vit C, Selenium, Magnesium and Niacin.
My problem started when my body was overburdened with bromine detox couple of night ago. The brassy taste in my mouth didnt go away even after a couple of salt loading. Then I started to have nausea and my body tried to get the bromine out through my mouth via regurgitation which was not pretty. Nothing came out though and I suppose it made their way down the intestine slowly as I endured the nausea.
My question:
1. Which of the things in the Iodine protocol is supposed to detox the bromine from your cell? Iodine or Vit C because I want to cut down on that.
2. Does anyone know that whether bromine has an effect on heartbeat rate? Because I had those to when I was nauseated.

This is a reply to # 1,744,042are you doing 5% or 2%?
that is a lot of lugol's
you are either doing 750mg of total I or 300mg
that is a quick ramp up in just one month.
I know from talking with Trapper that those who have used higher doses do better when they keep the elemental I down around what you would get from 50mg of Lugols and then add on SSKI to that. But of course he can speak to that better than I can.
how much C are you taking.
I have read posts by Newport where I think he talks about the C kicking out the bromine from the cell and the Cl kicking it out of the kidneys, but it seems the level of I you take increases the whole detox
Seems to me since thyroid is involved in heart rate that there can be reaction in heart rate from stimulating the thyroid. rapid heart rate is the sign that is used often to lower one's thyroid meds when supplementing with Iodine.
I know I am not providing you the exact answers with confidence that you are wanting and I am realizing as I am writing this that I don't know some of this as clearly as I thought I did.
Also know you are not just stirring up Bromide with taking Iodine. You are kicking up other heavy metals and fluoride and toxic chlorides potentially too.
don't forget about taking breaks and pulsing your dosing too.

This is a reply to # 1,744,147Sorry, forgot to mention that I was on 2% of Lugol's. I took about average 6-8 grams of Vit C daily.

As Cougar says, 120 drops of Lugol's 2% is 300 mg of iodine/iodide. That's a huge amount for a beginner. You've so overwhelmed your detox pathways that even the emergency measures couldn't help you much. STOP THE IODINE. Take a break, but continue the support supplements. Give your detox pathways a chance to catch up. Given your response, it may take over a week. Be sure you're in balance again before resuming, and consider Lowering Your Dose. Next time, stop the iodine before your distress becomes so great, and you won't take so long to recover. And there will be a next time, and a time after that.
When my husband got nauseated from bromine trying to get out, he derived tremendous benefit from oil-pulling several times a day. Be warned that the oil might get very nasty tasting -- he once almost threw up just from the stench.
Yes, the heart has iodine receptors. Where iodine resides, bromine can bump it out. You're not the first to have erratic heartbeats, but over time they will clear up as the bromine gets out.
Best wishes!

This is a reply to # 1,744,421nice post JT
so the oil actually stank????
wow, that is crazy
i oil pulled a little bit last year when I was really sick, but that is all
you just swish it around in your mouth and between teeth for like 10 -15 minutes right?
are some oils better than others?
thanks- Re: Which ones actually detox the br... just thinking

Yep, the bromine stench. I've never had that, but Hubby has it reliably when he's going through a detox episode. We use organic unrefined sesame oil, but I've seen coconut oil mentioned, maybe a nice olive oil, depending on what appeals to your taste buds. I'm sure the Oil Pulling forum would have other ideas if you needed them. We generally aim for 20 min, but I remember Trapper saying it's best to swish until the oil thins, and that's how you know you're done. :)

This is a reply to # 1,744,196I took plain ascorbic acid.
I first started on Iodine therapy on Sept 2010. By that time I was on like 10-20 drops daily. For about a month or so I upped the dosage because it did not affect greatly. So I increased it just to see how well my body could take it.
Something interesting to note though about my experience.
When I was a child, sometimes I would get nauseated and dizzy and would black out when I stand for too long. It didn't happen often though. But the feeling before and after the blacking out was a bit similar to the one I had described, except that I was sleeping at the time.
Perhaps even back then I was contaminated with bromine but only with small doses. It's not so far-fetched though considering how many chemicals are in our food.
On a happier note, I feel normal again today after 2 days off of Iodine protocol. But I will resume it in moderation and see how it goes again.
FYI, I have been Liver Flushing for 4 years. I guess I had done em all. And I don't have any serious medical condition but just trying to fix what I think I need fixing.
I would appreciate anymore thoughts and opinions though.
Thank you in advance people.- Re: Which ones actually detox the br... cougar

This is a reply to # 1,744,490glad you are feeling better .......
some things are time dependent
and you might think about getting some SSKI so you don't get your elemental I too high
You might think about getting an Iodine loading test with a bromide check or maybe even just a bromide check so you have baseline of sorts and something to check later to see where you are at with detox
you might be correct about the childhood symptoms.
and you might have had some cranial or upper cervical dysfunction that created those symptoms too......birth trauma, other head trauma, whiplash falling off your bike, etc.
glad you don't have any serious medical stuff, and now you know you have some bromide and/or other toxicity stuff that it will be so much easier to take care of now rather than later when you could have more problems
keep us updated.
