Re: Starting dosage, upping speed
If I remember right from the time I started to 50mg was over the course of a month or less.
I have a feeling my lack of additional detox symptoms from the increased dose was because shortly after starting
Iodine I also started pauling therapy which includes high dose ascorbic acid (vitamin C). The co supplement levels (and type) of vitamin C recommended here are basically a joke for anything other than maintenance of tissue.
IV Vit C has been proven to neutralize every toxin its been tested with and Kill every virus where ample dosing and duration has been used.
My recommendation for you to help combat detox from
Iodine would be to get some ascorbic acid capsules or crystals, you can get a pound of crystals (little over 450grams) for about $15 in the US. Start taking as much a day as you can handle without getting diarhea. That may only be 1gram 5x a day or could be more than 5grams 5x a day. Generally speaking the more your body needs it the more you can tolerate before getting diarrhea.
IV vitamin C is often used in the treatment of various ailments and when the dose is too large and/or pushed too fast it can, much like iodine, cause a pretty serious detox reaction since it forces so many toxins out of the bodies tissues into the blood. The solution to this is a second lower dose, slower vit C push to neutralize the toxins freed up by the primary treatment.
High dose oral vit C for handling detox caused by other things such as chemo, antifungals, and high dose
Iodine works on the same principle its just the oral route is no where near as effective as the IV route.
Your could also try liposomal GSH (ie glutathion) and perhaps pectrasol.
