I have been on different forms of Iodine since Feb. I started out with what was available to me at the time and that was Atomidine. I started with one drop a day in water for a week with weekends off. Each week I would up the dosage by one drop. I did detox even on the one drop, so it was good I took it very slow. My detox symptoms were mostly respiratory and fever.
I then tried the correct protocol of Lugol's brand iodine. At first I detoxed just like before and then it stopped. I started with one drop and worked up with weekends off. I worked up to 8 drop before I had one bad side effect (apparently not a common one) of edema, I'm not sure if it was the Lugol's or the salt water part of the protocol so I stopped using Lugol's and moved on to detoxified iodine. I am currently doing great at 4 drops in a glass of water in the morning with weekends off.
The funny little thing that always happens when I switch iodines is the sneezing it brings on. I don't suffer from allergies and I very seldom sneeze, I knew this was a symptom of detox from the iodine. Just today I took my 4 drops of detoxified Iodine and for whatever reason added one drop of Lugol's for good measure. I immediately sneezed one time. It's soo funny. 48124
