I am going through another of these rounds of detox. I have the dry mouth and dry eyes. Vitamin A and cod liver oil has helped me some, as well as drinking
Colloidal Silver . But I realized today that my body is detoxing and I am not getting it out. I went to the scale and had gained 3 pounds.
I look back and see a couple of weeks ago I was having 4-6 BMs per day, and now I have been having 1-2. A couple of days ago I tripled my magnesium - I had doubled it since I started
Iodine to keep everything open. I keep a lot of water around, but when I looked back, the last few days I really had not been drinking as much. So I have to count it out again, to keep myself on track.
I took today off from iodine, but tomorrow I am going back to my high doses. I went tonight and bought a watermelon. That and the magnesium worked its magic. I felt very sleepy and rested for an hour or so, and now back on the computer.
I am the one who preaches salt loading and I really do believe it has helped me avoid headaches, etc. Now I have to think water, water, water.
I thank you and the others who have posted about dry mouth. It made me think why I am having it too. I realized that for me, I am doing some detoxing in my sinuses, and they are congested. I used to stay stopped up a lot, then when I cut out starches and heavy carbs, and added iodine, they were open for some time. I had to ask myself why would I have this sinus discharge AGAIN that thickened when
Iodine overdose is supposed to make thin mucous discharge.
So I came to the same conclusion as you. The discharge is thick because I am not getting enough water in me to thin it out.
At any rate, this little annoyance has a silver lining. I know that stuff is getting out, and that is what I have been praying for.
