Yeah, when I found out (at the age of 46) that I was gluten-intolerant it was a mixed blessing.
When I found out THIS year that bromides have been added to most bread products, it was the first time that I was thankful to be gluten-intolerant! I've been avoiding bromides for 4 years now! (I gave up soda pop YEARS ago, and never did care for citrus-flavored Gatorade which also has bromides in it).
Good for you!
PS: Since constipation is a problem for you, you could get backed up with this addition of iodine, since it detoxifies the body.
These two things have "saved my A__" many times....
salt-loading protocol for bromide detox (When this quit working, I used 1/2 tsp salt instead of 1/4 - it started working again-to the point of helping with the constipation issues, too!)
