Re: To the Iodine Jedi-s
Great insights, and very generous of you to take the time to share your story, GG! Thank you!
I'm glad your momma is doing ok, that is scary indeed to see a loved one wasting away, I'm sure you all learned a lot and grew closer through the challenges.
You're making me think, and I appreciate it!!:) I did have low body temp many years ago at the outset of my CFS, after changing to raw, etc. my body temp raised (I mentioned there was some
Iodine therapy in there a few years ago). I am thankfully now perfect body temp, I feel blessed about that, and realize that I should celebrate that fact!
I don't suffer from the cold feeling anymore, cold hands and feet, very very rarely. Am I out of the hypo T zone? Probably not entirely, but I think 90% I am ok there, but you can never can tell.
After the mercury removal last summer, I just felt that pathogens were getting stronger and stronger (lyme, parasites) and I was getting weaker and weaker (gut wise and energy wise).
I know I need iodine, I feel it in my soul, but also the zinc and selenium. Again, your insights about appetite and zinc are exactly the help I needed, so thank you:)
I have only recently started on the ant extract (super zinc) and feel it will be an integral ingredient, not very appetizing, but hopefully it will get my appetite up for some heavier foods. I am not abstaining from meat any longer, just can't get it down every day, maybe once a week or so, it's not my favorite:)
Whenever I am ill, I gain weight, so my body is in defense mode, but I feel a change coming, so I will post again and share updates, I am optimistic about my health, only way to be...blessings!!!
