Greetings Curezone. I have started taking Iodine and just looking for some feedback. I am a 33 year old male living in Los Angeles. No health problems. I started reading about taking Iodine on the internet and thought it sounded interesting. I have been surfing in the ocean, and was concerned about fukushima radiation which is probably how I stumbled across iodine. I am also a bit paranoid about chemtrails and am always noticing them spraying the sky above Los Angeles. Oh, I also do have many mercury fillings. I just thought I should mention that as I have seen it come up a number of times in these forums.
I first tried taking Lugols 2% around the beginning of december. I did not read enough about supplementation, so I was taking it by itself. First day was fine, I was taking 3 drops in the morning. 2nd day I started getting a runny nose and headaches. The next few days the headaches increased I started getting flu like symptoms and very achy. I also noticed in my armpit and at the bottom of my foot a painful boil was forming. I assumed I was detoxing through my lymph nodes in my armpit..wasnt sure about my foot but figured it was toxins being expelled. This is when I read more online and started salt flushing. It didn't really help, maybe a little bit with the headaches. So, after a few days of this, I stopped taking iodine. FYI, I was drinking reverse osmosis filtered water and I was using Mortons Sea Salt , which I later read contains an anti-caking agent!!
All of february, I was sober…stopped drinking and smoking. I researched more, and purchased some Magnesium Citrate, Selenium and Milk Thistle. So yesterday I started taking 3 drops of Lugols in the morning along with my new supplements. Oh, I am also taking a mens Multivitamin (NOW Adam). Today as well, and so far so good. I also plan on getting some Ester Vitamin C and ATP Cofactors soon. I have been drinking about 1/3 teaspoon of pink himalayan salt in warm water about 2 times a day as well.
I hope this time around the detox will be…not so gnarly!
Thanks for reading!

Keep in mind that ester-C is bound with calcium, so if your kidneys make complaints, get some non-calcium fermented goodies (like live saukeraut, kefir, sambucha or live apple cider vinegar) for the vitamin K2.
If the NOW Adam has B9 as 5-mthf (metafolin) in it instead of folic acid, and B6 as P5P, then it's gold.- Re: New Iodine Journey LosMoth

This is a reply to # 2,150,383Check the NOW products, look out for fillers like rice flour, maltodextrin, sorbitol, etc. They tend to add to the wrong sort of gut fermentation.

This is a reply to # 2,150,389Hmm, yes I just read Rice flour was an ingredient in some of the capsules. How bad can that be though? I eat rice quite regularly...

This is a reply to # 2,150,412I see no problem with rice flour as long as you are not allergic or follow a strict non carb diet. For capsules, supplements I would most of all avoid dicalcium phosphate, as it neutralize the stomach acid, needed for mineral uptakes.. And if possible; magnesium stearate; but it is hard to find supplements without it. A little is tolerable, IMO.

This is a reply to # 2,150,383Careful with ester C, id stick with ascorbic acid or sodium ascorbate. Its more than just complaining kidneys. Without adequate vit A,D,K calcium doesnt end up where it needs to be (ie bones and teeth) and start to calcify soft tissue.
Generally speaking, unless you have a known calcium deficiency supplementing calcium outside of what may be in your multi generally does more harm than good. Dr Levy has a new book out called ":Death by calcium". Taking D will also likely increase your need for Magnesium and can be toxic if not combined with ample amounts of vit A and K. A ratio of 5:1 A to D is a good place to be. Cod liver oil has a good A to D ratio.

This is a reply to # 2,150,491well, there are worse things, like, maybe a nuclear power plant in your mouth.
mexico is sketchy.* find a decent biologic dentist that uses strict protocols to include a rubber dam in the mouth, constant cold irrigation while drilling, fresh air delivered to your nose, vacuum the air out of the room at a high rate, practitioner and assistant wear breathing apparatus while drilling. you dont want a batshit crazy dentist working on you. oh, and eat a bunch of activated charcoal before your appointment.
only then can you start getting the mercury out of your body. no need to talk about that now.
pay. and if you cant pay, seriously consider a bottle of booze and a pair of pliers.
*by sketchy i mean there have been a variety of reports both good and bad. if you KNOW your source then thats more than i know or can help you with.

This is a reply to # 2,150,498I second this.. doing it locally with a biological dentist you can consult throughout the process, and just paying it off cash upfront as you manage to go through it, is best.
I showed the smoking teeth vid to my Hubby, and right away, he agreed to help me go through the dental cleanup process. It's been two years, but he's been looking forewards to the completion of the work almost as much as I have.
I have to travel an hour on train to get to the nearest bio-dentist, but it is well worth it. And you never forget a dentist who chooses to give you charcoal and a short of liquorice vodka before the dental work. xD
A good noise-insulating pair of headphones and a good, calming bit of music helps a lot too. After 9 years of knowing about the evils of amalgams, nothing's quite like looking oneself in the face and seeing teeth-colored teeth again. OoO- Re: New Iodine Journey LosMoth

This is a reply to # 2,150,631Thanks, I'm going to start looking for a bio dentist. I just checked and it looks like I have 5 fillings, but two of them almost look like the whole tooth is silver.. so getting them out doesn't appear too easy.

This is a reply to # 2,150,640My dentist basically just resculpted many of the teeth out of the
Composite filling he's most confident in. The surface lof the teeth feels completely different after that!
Do, do, do follow the advice, a week or two with charcoal tablets before the dentalwork... I had a minth and a half of detox where I was in a dark, darrrk place. I think it may have been a pretty bad filling that was undone.
Also remember, vit c makes you circulate out the anastetic much too fast, so save that day's dose for after dental work!- Re: New Iodine Journey SickInSeattle

This is a reply to # 2,150,727I was curious which method of testing you used and if you could recommend the lab you went through? I do have 3 crowns (silver covered with ceramic) and prior to those they were fillings. It wasn't a bio-dentist that did the switch (if it was, they'd probably not put the crowns on?), so I'm wondering if I have a big dose from that dental work in addition to potential slow leak from the crowns? Most of the posts I've read are regarding slow leaks from fillings, so i'm hoping maybe covered crowns leak slower?
Anyhow, I'm not yet in a position to pay for all my crowned teeth to be pulled and replaced with fake teeth, but I'd be interested in looking into detoxing any current load in my system if doable.
Thanks for any thoughts!

This is a reply to # 2,150,841My dentist initially did a voltage test (electroactivity in the quadrants of the mouth, and chose the quadrant where a silver filling was right next to a crown.
It is best to weigh the costs and benefits. If the crowned teeth are not root canals, then it may best best to leave be. Most implants are done with titanium screws, and those leak into the bloodstream as an immunoirritant. I have read a number of stories about the screws migrating too close to sinus cavities. It ends up really inhibiting a quality of life, so do your research thoroughly... Or, better yet, get a consultation without getting work done. I just chose to go out to see the biodentist when one of my fillings chipped, and I felt a -ton- better for just having got the chance to talk to a professional who had the right knowledge under his belt.
Reguarding what you say about your fillings/silvercrowns, just get out to see a biopro. ;) he or she will definately help you evaluate the situation best.
In the meanwhile, you're in experienced hands in the Iodine forum here. I'm still learning from reading the old posts :)
I am praying I will be able to get my bioD to extract the one last root canal.
Oddly, my gums are a bit tender around one extraction site. It started throbbing up in the cheekbone area after starting digestive enzymes, Iodine and other co-nutrients, but that throb has stopped entirely after going strong on MK7 (vit k2).
I'd actually like to hear from others with dental insight myself, i have a crown where I have been able to see a metal base that holds the ceramic top (not biodentist installed), so I'm curious about it.
... Gums have been tightening up since december, too. :)

This is a reply to # 2,150,640tears of joy!
whatever you do, no root canals. i dont think the good dentists (alongside every unicorn you find) do those any more. and implants? frankly, you dont want any metal in your teeth. think ahead. you are young enough, if you choose in the future to be at a large event and things go bad and police use a microwave weapon on the crowd you are in, well, i imagine metal arcing inside the body. you know, like in a microwave when you put foil in there, arcing.- Re: New Iodine Journey illys / elisah

This is a reply to # 2,151,018BUGHWUHUH...
Ok, you made me chuckle, Trapper. ;)
Unfortunately my head went down another memory lane, of when one of those blasted old fillings expanded and splintered one of my teeth. It was so bad that for a while I resorted to bumping my forehead to the pantry door.
You can call it perhaps tears of joy that I no longer have that tooth any more. <:)
More like metal in your bone, directly in connection with the bloodflow that goes about your brain. O_O
Doctors wonder why their patients don't heal..? Maybe because they put in more metal, and not nearly often enough the nutrients that heal.

This is a reply to # 2,151,018Gosh, so it sounds like people are saying teeth with metal crowns and root canals should come out? But that implants are bad for you? What do those of us do that have those sorts of teeth? Just get the teeth pulled and leave it open? Surely there aren't tons of people doing partial dentures for just those back teeth?

This is a reply to # 2,151,104One of my dreams is that the tooth regeneration tool using ultrasound therapy is made as a product for purchase. :)
It's a bit of creative google-fu that is needed, but try looking up old people who regrow their teeth at around age 50-60, and I think I can try and tell the story here about the canadians who made a sonic inducer for getting neural tooth roots to regrow teeth. Basically you induce a gentle mircofracture around the root of the nerve, where tooth growth happens in a baby, to pull stem cells to the location. You combine that with a high-nutrient diet and the right nutrients, and use 20 mins a day with the ultrasound oral device aimed at the gums/root locations, for about 6-8 months, and hoowee, teef!
I have.. those exact challenges you mention. At least two of my remaining back molars are crowns, I have two gaps where other molars are gone.
The opinions about the evils of metallic dentistry are in the articles and other info.. uh.. spread about the CZ mess. The dental solutions a person chooses are really a very personal subject though, and in truth, the best choices are going to be made towards quality-of-life, between the patient and his or her bio-dentist, ideally.
There are materials out there which are at least decently benign to the body, they're called 'bio-identical' by the companies that sell them, but in all honesty, nothing's quite so good as what the body makes itself.
One of the people I've seen in correspondance has taken on a PFO implant for a heart defect, and she takes higher amounts of C and a certain B-vitamin to counteract whatever leakages there are from that. I suppose there are ways to compensate for the technological aides we end up having to accept...
... I think what is important at the end of the day is a peace and a calm. For me, after an amputated hand, open-chest surgery at age 21 and the type 1 diabetes, I find a certain delight in that I have life in the life after this one is done.

This is a reply to # 2,150,498Ok, good to know. Thank you. So you are saying don't even bother with the Iodine until the Amalgam is gone? I guess I didn't realize the point of taking Iodine was to get the mercury out of my body. I was thinking fluoride, chlorine, bromine..

This is a reply to # 2,150,639I started taking Iodine before removing my six Amalgams and throughout the removal. One week after the last two I had a HM test and mercury was not even the highest; cadmium,aluminium,lead and silver were the highest (in that order). I truly think being on the Iodine protocol and taking selenium helped lower mercury levels. I had those 'pulling in the brain' feelings people get when chelating.
