Re: Depressed, wishing I’d never taken iodine
Chewy & others,
If you are having too many detox symptoms I suggest that you be sure you are taking all of the required co-supplements. 200yg of selenium is always required to be taken with iodine.Please see this link:

Where you will find all of the co-supplements:
Why Take Co-supplements: The Key to Success on the
Iodine Protocol
http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/2013/12/29/companion-nutrients-the-key-to-iodine-protocol/
½ tsp Natural Celtic Salt AM daily, Himalayan Pink Salt, Redmonds Salt or Hawaiian black salt. If salt is pure white, it is not acceptable (minerals have been stripped out )
200+ mcg AM selenomethionine (L-selenomethionine recommended) 800 mcg Limit
400 mg Magnesium - PM best=glycinate, citrate or malate others are poorly absorbed - more may be needed - See this link - (Calcium will purge magnesium)
2,000+ mg Vitamin C - PM Sodium Ascorbate (easier on stomach) or Ascorbic Acid. Increase dosage to bowel tolerance: See This Link
500 mg Vitamin B3 Non Flushing as Niacinimide. (Niacin causes flushing) -or-
ATP Cofactors caplet AM contains both 100mg B2 & 500mg non-flushing B3 in the correct ratio. Take 1/2 caplet up to 25mg of iodine, then ½ more for each additional 25mg iodine. (Max 3 daily per label) Can be discontinued after 1 yr, IF
Iodine sufficient & no deficiency or detox symptoms.
I also suggest you SLOOOWLY ramp up your
Iodine intake. Start wit 1 drop of
Lugols 3% weekly, then add a drop daily until you are taking 7 drops a week.
Then take 12mg Iodoral Capsules daily.
The benefits from iodine are just too important to give up.
1. Iodine is used by our immune system to kill cancers
2. Required to prevent & cure Fibrocystic Breast Disease, ovary cysts, uterus problems
3. Prostate problems in men.
We cured a woman in our home town that was sent to Home Hospice to die with incurable Uterus Cancer.
She started on 50mg of iodine daily with co-supplements and was cured in only 6 months. She lived an additional 5 years before dying from a heart attack.
.Her best friend cured he Fibrocystic breast disease that she was suffering for 20 years. Her doctor wanted to do a double mastectomy but she was cured in only 2 weeks with 12.5 mg of iodine
I also use 12 mg daily for my own prostate.
