" it is a small minority that does have any problems taking iodine. we only hear from them, unfortunately, so it makes people fearful when there is likely to be no problem at all."
-so true. Of all the children I have given iodine, no one has reported the "detox" symptoms. Same counts for animals.
Of all adult cases, I would say 2-3 out of 10 encounter some kind of problems. The more toxic / ill, the worse detox.
One or two stopped Iodine as they couldnt see the point with the detox. Went back to painkillers.
