Re: Answer to DesertLily's question - Re: JOINTS

Hi Archus,

I did not take the co-factors together with the Iodine. I take a multi-supplement that has everything, Tangy Tangerine form Wallach, although apart from it - orally, Iodine - on the skin. Do you think one needs to take them together? I feel like Iodine on my skin is absorbed quite well - it disappears from the skin, whereas if I stain the wall by mistake with a drop or two, it stays there for days.
Iodine is quite dynamic - I feel if a pay for getting it tested the situation may change very quickly. Where did you test yours?
I have everything tested recently - 24-hrs hormones too. Everything is stellar, except for Prolactine, but I don't want to take medication to suppress it, since I don't really know the reason it is elevated - it could be a stress adaptation. My pituitary gland is normal size, thank God. Prolactine can give bone problems, and I suspect it had. A reason why it may have been de-regulated is a trauma to the head, which I have had several during my lifetime ... so maybe only an extended fast would be able to fix that. Sigh ..
One other thing, I don't remember who was saying that, but I remember a note, that Iodine is able to push-out Fluoride, Bromine and Chlorine, if it is in a little excess. How you know how much to take remains still a question, except if you test weekly, I guess and the lab is good.
Thank you for your input, Archus.
Wishing the very best evening to all,
DL
