Re: update on iodoral / milk thistle
BearWoman,
I'm worried about you.. you said you were feeling hot.
I'm concerned about which co-supplements you are taking with your iodine. The following list was assembled by the
Iodine Conferences with Dr. Brownstein & others, and considered to be essential:
- - ½ tsp Natural Celtic Salt, Himalayan Pink Salt, Redmonds Salt or Hawaiin black salt
- - - If the
Sea Salt is pure white, it is unacceptable (minerals have been stripped out )
- - 200 mcg selenium (L-selenomethionine preferred)
- - 400 mcg Magnesium - Glycinate preferred
- - 2,000mg Vitamin C - Ester-C preferred
- - ATP Cofactors caplet contains 100mg B2 & 500mg B3 non-flushing in the correct ratio
Take 1 caplet with
Iodine up to 50mg, then another caplet for each 50 mg iodine,
Especially important is the Selenium:

Since you are feeling hot, you could be into hyperthyroidism, which indicates possibly a lack of selenium or one of the other required supplements.
Examine this list of symptoms to make a determination:

As a final determination, measure your temperature before getting out of bed. Chart your temp each day. It should not be higher than 98.6 degrees.

If you think you are hyperthyroid, here is how to find a good doctor:

Hopefully, I am worried over nothing, but better to ask than be sorry.
Best to you,
