Re: Iodoral or Lugol's AND Multivitamin?????

'150mg of Iodine, in addition to the C, Selenium and Magnesium.'


*Did you mean 150mCg?


If you follow the dosages listed on the Iodine Protocol..perhaps you can taper down on other supplements.

Iodine Supplementation Protocol with Companion Nutrients

* 50 mg Iodoral minimum for Breast Cancer (may start with 12.5 mg).

Some practitioners may recommend another form of Iodine such as
Lugol's solution. Iodoral is the Lugol's formula in tablet form.


* Vitamin C - 3,000 mg per day (more may be necessary to detox bromide).


* 300-600 mg magnesium oxide or comparable magnesium supplement.


* 200 mcg selenium.


* 625 mg inositol hexaniacinate twice a day. (Some patients cannot tolerate
this supplement so it may be best added after a month of Iodine therapy to
distinguish niacin side effects from iodine side effects.)


* A comprehensive vitamin and nutrition program.


Salt Loading Protocol for Possible Bromide Side Effects

Orthoiodosupplementation induced and increased mobilization of bromine from
storage sites, with increased urinary excretion of bromide. --Guy Abraham, MD

Certain iodine-literate doctors feel the bromide excreted by iodine therapy can
be eliminated more efficiently by the chloride present in mineral-rich Celtic
salt. The salt is added to water in a specific way. Eating salty food is not
effective. table salt is only used in an emergency.

Some members of the Amazon discussion group have found the Salt Loading
Protocol devised by Dr. William Shevin (and presented at the February '07 Iodine
Conference) to be effective in eliminating the side effects such as bromide
sedation, acne, brain fog, brassy taste, mouth sores, frontal headache or other
symptoms which occur in a small percentage of patients.

* 1/4 teaspoon salt in 1/2 cup warm water followed with 12-16 oz pure water.


* Repeat in 30-45 minutes if needed. May repeat again until copious urination
begins.


* Observe subjective response (usually within several hours).



"I find it hard to believe you can get all they say into 1 multivitamin pill, but if they can, then are the single supplement pills full of fillers?"


* Best to put your faith in a more wholistic diet rather than a pill. Tweet
