I got a client several months ago to give Iodine a try. He was having trouble with A-fib. I gave him stuff to read and decided it made sense.
He moved out of town and I had not heard from him so I was wondering how he was doing and how the Iodine was working out. Here is the repsonse I got from him:
****
I'm doing pretty well. Working with a naturopath who has me on supplements for adrenal support and a gluten free diet. Energy is better. Still having afib pretty frequently but not as severe as in Boulder. Iodine made me gain a lot of weight and gave me blurry vision—felt very strange, so I stopped after a month or so.
*******
I am curious what my Iodine friends who have been around the block awhile would do with his response. I have seen a few people here talk about the weight gain thing, but it seems they were people who did not stick around the forum very long so I haven't seen resolution and don't know if the weight gain implies a specific direction in terms of what to do. In other words, does it tend to be transient, or does it indicate another underlying problem that needs attention?

As for the weight gain, not sure on that one. It might be thyroid. I think that underlying thyroid issues will make itself known once Iodine is started, I know there are other schools of thought on this that it causes it but I wouldn't bank on that. - Re: Iodine cause weight gain in clie... fivetoedsloth

Cause is malnutrition.
I bet your client is doing high carb, low fat and not enough of the missing essential nutrients.- Re: Iodine cause weight gain in clie... Iolite

This is a reply to # 1,905,930Is testosterone level not improved by sorting out adrenalin, insulin and cortisol? I've read that these 3 hormones play havoc with our health if not in optimal levels.....especially cortisol levels.

This is a reply to # 1,905,988Yes it can, unless the underlying issue is low testosterone to begin with.

This is a reply to # 1,905,898My guess is that he took to little iodine, didnt take all or enough companions, so worsened a hypo T condition (transient phase seen in many cases and that AF in addition made the body retain water. This could have been avoided with saltloading)
1 month is to short to really know, and he still has A-fib; I bet these have been gone by now on the Iodine protocol.

This is a reply to # 1,906,225that sounds pretty reasonable.
Have you yourself seen people go through the transient weight gain thing?
Like I said in my original message....I have seen a few people write about this on this forum but they don't seem to stick around here and give updates....so there is always that fear that something got set off and their whole body freaked out or worse
I always have a much higher level of comfort/confidence when I see someone or read about someone who has actually gone through a rough situation and come out the other side.
I have a long list of personal detox symptoms...so I have those down: getting colder, zits, metallic mouth, fatigue, kidneys hurting, anxiety, depression, muscle weakness, headaches and other weird head stuff, etc. And of course if "I" started gaining a lot of weight I would be having a party!!!!!
it is just one of those things I would love to have direct or second hand experience with so I knew how to coach someone around it......- Re: Iodine cause weight gain in clie... just thinking

His kind of weight gain you don't want LOL I've gotten that rotten system set up in me from time to time from the combo of candida die-off and being hypothyroid. I've jumped on the mini-trampoline, drunk salted water, loaded up vit C, moved my body to keep the trash moving out. It can feel like toxic stew inside, and disturbs my sleep when the lymph settles in my head and I can't breathe at night. I only know that the only way through it is to keep moving forward.

Yep, not enough vit C to help detoxification, not enough selenium to help the thyroid, not enough magnesium as a first line of defense against the a-fib, and not enough water and salt to dilute and move the toxic junk out of his system. He could have used gentle exercise as well, to help keep the lymph moving before it turns into sludge loaded with debris.
