This is my first post on this forum. I have been reading for the past six weeks and implemented Iodine supplementation 4 weeks ago. I have been documenting my progress and will post all observations soon. I have a very small thirteen year old daughter. She was 4'7" and weighs 69lbs 4 weeks ago. When weighed and measured today weighed 74lbs and grew 3/4 of an inch in one month. She takes one drop of Lugols twice daily and has experience no detox symptoms so far. Up until the Iodine supplementation she was growing at a rate of approximately 1 cm every three months. Two weeks after supplimentation was started her appetite improved dramatically and sleep patterns have improved dramatically. She has been test for all types of growth disorders and nothing was found to be wrong. The endocrinologist wanted to put her on growth hormones even though there was no recognizable problem. We refused this treatment.
I find this forum facinating and would like to thank everyone for their observations and research.
