Converting iodine into iodide???
From reading previous posts it sounds like if you mix
Iodine w/ vit c you get iodide. I am taking iosol which is only
Iodine and would like to also include iodide- can I simply mix half of my iosol dose in vit c to get my
Iodide needs met??? I just wish I could handle the
Lugol's like the majority of posters but for some reason (probably something to do with my hashi's) my throat wants to close up. As a result of this I am stuck with iosol. Also I keep increasing 1 drop a day I am a 6 drops which is about 9mg. I really want to jump to a higher level. I have only been on
Iodine for over a week know. If I jump up now would that be to soon to fast. My detox symptoms have been some breaking out, slightly constipated, slightly tired but bearable. I am moving to another state and will be starting school in 1 month and would like if possible to be at my optimal dose in a month so while I'm in school I don't have any big surprises and learn how to manage my symptoms- is this reasonable or is my head in the clouds?? Also have been on therapeutic doses of vit c for months now and I know if i stop cold turkey my body is not happy(perhaps this is because vit c needs to be replenished ~ every 4 hours)- is this the same scenario with iodine. Although Iodine is still working in the body even when your not taking it so maybe not. Will those of you taking 100 mg fall ill if you miss a day??? Thats the very small down side that when you give your body something day in and day out the body becomes dependent in most cases. I've experimented with so many supplements, whole foods, cleansing for healing and looking back have learned that you need to make your body work a little in most instances or else it becomes dependent and also those things which you no longer expose yourself to reduces your ability to handle them if you do encounter them again. For example for almost 2 years I ate raw fermented foods (including animal proteins) to heal my body and while I felt good i lost my ability to be able to feel okay on cooked foods or really flow in the world. As with everyting, its all about balance relative to our all around individual needs. Sorry lots of questions and thoughts today
