It's great to hear about an open-minded GYN!

Yea, I've reached the 3-4 month mark on my own journey too, where I'm having to renew my dedication. I took a one-week break off of all supplements after a heavy detox reaction to too much Lugol's, and during the week, I found myself slowing, slowing.. urgh.. and then yesterday I took the co-factors again, and life brightened way up, and my blood glucose started reacting to my insulin exactly as it should.

If anything, Chicky, I'd like to offer a hug, since I'm pretty much in the same boat. I stopped zoloft (an antidepressant) in december, and I'm really feeling it now - I'm taking -MORE- pills than ever despite it!


... And yet.. This is a journey I have been wanting to take for a long time, and a good bit of self-discovery.


On the practical side of things,
It's not just your thyroid you're working on while you use iodine. It's all your internal organs, especially liver, kidney and brains. Those are going to complain about the halides shunted out by iodine, certain as the day is long!

Also the feedback on thyroid healing from reading around on this forum, it's one of the slowest organs to heal in the body. It seems to me that many of the stories I read here are first a worsening, and then a strengthening- both physically and spiritually.


What I can say from my own experience-
Go a LOT higher on the A (retinol palminate, beta carrotene is a JOKE), like 100mg or 300mg for a one-time trial

Try two weeks with maintaining a 5:1:10 ratio of A-D-K2 , but it is not necessary to use those every day

Try switching to fermented cod liver oil, which has the ADK stuff in the right ratio, with the Omega 3's.

I have a subtle lightening of mood, energy and less Depression when I go high on the omega 3's.

Ferventerer pointed you to the A-D ratio earlier as well:

I have read an account of vitamin A basically relieving menopause symptoms (lessening moodwings and hotflashes and the like), and it wouldn't surprise me!
I took some time to read Ferventerer's links, and stuff from other posters who replied to my fat-soluable vit questions, it was well worth it.
there's a controversy among vit D fans and vit A fans as to what ratio there should be between the two...
But the fact is that D multiplies the receptors for A, and A multiplies the receptors for D.

And K2 is wonderfully antidepressant. :D
http://mueller_ranges.tripod.com/links/compendium/other_supps.html#vit_k (a person's notes on K's properties in the body. Fervy points towards a lot more Mk-4 though, saying he feels much better on high levels of MK-4. (sometimes up to a gram!) )

... Cat on my desk, butt in front of the screen, maybe I'd best close off here.
Bless and greetings
