MoreThis is a reply to # 1,949,492I would say that there is no safe dose of the chemical Iodine that has the word "poison" on the label.
I've recently responded on another forum, to two people who posted about the negative side effects that they had after taking Lugol's iodine. And that's only in the past few days. Who knows how many other people like that are out there?
The minerals that the body needs are required in tiny amounts. That's why they're called Trace Minerals. They should be together with other compounds required for them to be properly used in the body. Only nature can provide this perfect balance. This is why I will only use plant iodine.

This is a reply to # 1,949,552Hv has posted on this, so you may want to do a search. I think kelp is one of the plant sources. He talks about Black-Walnut hulls here.

I use an herbal plant Iodine form a source that I trust. I'm not sure whether Hv makes an herbal combination containing plant Iodine but if he does, I may well try it.

This is a reply to # 1,949,556cool, the only reason I ask is that I don't usually take vitamins, don't use iodized salt and I don't feel comfortable taking even one drop of those liquid Iodine solutions, seems like way more Iodine than I would want to put into my body at one time. Will look into kelp, thanks.

Yes, my Thyroid Tonic:
http://www.mountainmistbotanicals.com/formulas/thyroid.htm
It is not designed just for iodine, but also to increase cAMP for proper iodine uptake, T4 to T3 conversion, adrenal support since the adrenals affect the thyroid, accessory nutrients, etc. As I have always said there are many causes of hypothyroidism. Iodine does not address all form and too much can aggravate some thyroid conditions. It is important to support the thyroid and related parts of the glandular system rather than simply throwing iodine at the problem. Otherwise you are just asking for other problems.

Seaweeds are some of the safest and best sources of iodine. Seaweeds not only contain iodine, but also the other nutrients the body requires for proper utilization of the iodine except a cAMP stimulator to enhance iodine uptake.
What is a safe dose of iodine is not the same for everyone. Doses of iodine for example that are safe for a healthy individual has been shown to aggravate Hashimoto's thyroidosis. Iodine can also aggravate hyperthyroidism.
There are also other factors such as binding of iodine to starches, ability of cells to uptake iodine, etc. But it would be more difficult to get excess iodine from seaweeds compared to a toxic chemical compound like Lugol's iodine. And again, the other nutrients in seaweeds help in the proper utilization of iodine.

I know you said the safe dose of iodine is not the same for everyone, but as I am taking dulse, I would like to know what you think is a safe dose for dulse for the "average healthy person".
Like, I'm currently taking one heaping teaspoon of dulse a day. Is that too much, too little or just enough for an average healthy person? I just want to know if I'm in the right ballpark.
Thanks a lot! - Re: Safe way to get iodine? #137093

This is a reply to # 1,949,788Yes I am one of those victims of Lugols overdosing. I followed treatment advice and did all the complimentary supplements etc and felt good for a bit just like i did with thyroid meds but ultimately ended up crashing my already weak adrenals big time and actually ended up developing Hashimotos!!!! Now i'm worse off then when i started and have now developed Chronic-Fatigue-Syndrome as a result. So be warned everyone.
