Re: Iodine Dosage Decision
Yes...my 80 year old mother appears to be going hypo also. Her temps have dropped and she's sluggish. She's been on 50mgs for a few months and was doing fabulous. She's cut back to half the amount taken every few days to see.
I've had periods were it feels like that also happening to me....the last one was for 2 days last week. I was utterly useless all day Wed and can't have that happen again as I'm gearing up to return back to another semester of night school next week.
But when I go lower than 50 I get breast pains returning so don't have an answer for myself much less anyone else.
On the other hand Flechas told me he's been on 50mgs steadily for years and years. He looks great and seems to have lots of energy....
And Jerry Brunetti also has been on 50mgs for years and doing great BUT BUT BUT he understands and takes trace minerals. He also has access to some of the most nutrient dense foods in terms of minerals that exist because his job is working with growers to increase nutrient density of produce and animals. I'm sure from his food alone he's getting lots of trace minerals.
I'm really looking closer at the trace minerals right now. I decided that selenium must go up for myself. Brazil nuts are not a dependable source so i'm supplementing and watching closely. Last 2 days I've really increased selenium and felt pretty darn good. Don't know if that's enough time though to say one way or the other.
