Re: Hypo and Hyper symptoms? Tender Scalp, Weight Loss. Safe to try Iodine? Question for trapper.

JR,

You should start off with the most obvious symptoms.

"I have low body temperature to the point where I am getting hypothermia while outside during spring at night. Driving my car during the cold without the heat on.
And I get hypothermia when I smoke cannabis.
I think the cannabis is saying "Hey your thyroid is asking for help"
My issue with supplementing Iodine is that I am losing a lot of weight. I weigh 135lbs and can't gain weight."

Regardless of what your doctor says, you are hypothyroid, and you should chart your body temp to prove it.

The thyroid is typically messed up & even damaged by the toxins Bromide, Fluoride, & Chlorine which take over cell receptors designed for iodine.

1) Eliminate fluoride by drinking distilled or bottled water
2) Eliminate Bromide by eating bromide free bread and reading labels to avoid it as much as possible.

I suggest starting the Dr. Brownstein Iodine Protocol with 1 drop Iodine in a glass of water each week and titrate slowly up to 50 mg a day. You also need the co-supplements.

This might correct your hypothyroid over the course of a few months. If not, you need a GOOD doctor to prescribe natural thyroid hormone NOT synthroid. Use this link to find a good doctor. VITAL !

Doctors should base their prognosis on symptoms, not their stupid TSH testing.

Be aware that as you are displacing toxins with iodine, you are very likely to suffer temporary detox symptoms described here:

PS) Judging from your message history, you are one sick dude. First things first, cure your thyroid problems because this is the basis for all of your body hormones & your metabolism. I suggest you start out by verifying my prognosis of severe iodine deficiency with this iodine test. Also get the fluoride & bromide test. ( Stop taking iodine 1 week before this test )

Let us know how the iodine test turned out.

Severe iodine deficiency means you are LOADED with the toxins bromide, fluoride & chlorine. Get familiar with the detox symptoms.

Good luck
