Yes but she didn't give you any *proof* did she? I mean it is easy to say things like that and I know that nurses, doctors and vets, chemists, etc., are really opposed to alternative things without any proof at all. This includes silver which I *know* works. Did she also tell you all the bad side effects that mainstream medicine has too? I bet not. I take chlorella and have never noticed this happening--and I'm sure I would. Maybe if a person has other issues it could be a problem because as I say, we are all so different and the supplements I take, may be not right for someone else--or--they may need different dosage. I still think it is better to take things in whole food form though, and not concentrated reduced forms.

It's the same as either the Champion or the Oscar (I can't remember which) It was the cheapest electric one I could find, about £160. It's been great. You can also get hand wheatgrass juicers for under £30. They say that when you take it you're supposed to keep each mouthful in your mouth and roll it around as if you were 'chewing' it at least 30 times. I do 'chew' it but not as long as that. Apparently that encourages the saliva flow and makes it easier to digest. In fact they recommend you do that with all juices. It might help stop the stomach pains. Cheers Kirsteen

I've upped my dose to 50 mg per day of 2% Lugol's, I started with 5 mg and worked my way up slowly, and I take 400 - 600 mg of the selenomethionine form of Selenium daily. When I don't take the Iodine I feel like crap. My thyroid felt swollen on one side and I had a small nodule on my thyroid which is slowly shrinking. The doc did not do a thyroid antibody test but he did say I had elevated antibodies according to my lab results. When I first started taking the Iodine my thyroid swelled some, but it is now a normal size. I feel physically much better. Detox/herx symptoms can be a bear but if you take extra magnesium, vit C, selenium, zinc and copper, and manganese, and use sea salt and plenty of water this can be reduced greatly. That and backing off on the dose until you feel a bit better. If you have a lot of toxins to detox the detox pathways can be overcome and this causes the detox/herx symptoms, or a viral load die off, or candida/fungus die off. The minerals the shepherd the halides, mercury and other stuff out are the ones I've listed above. You don't have a chance to get too much of them because the get used up binding to toxins and carrying them out, usually through the urine. And the body needs some of them for regular maintenance and enzyme production. I also added milk thistle, and dandelion to my regime to support the liver, and R ALA to boost glutathione. It also helped that I found a pitcher that filters everything including 80 - 90 % of fluoride from my tap water. And cutting out MSG, aspartame, and breads made from brominated flours, as well as all soft drinks, and upping my pure water intake to nearly 90 0z per day. I also added vit D3, and sea salt to my regime quite a while back and cut out almost all the processed salt. Those with autoimmune hypothyroid issues MUST take the selenium, it's NOT an option, or it WILL cause problems, especially with antibodies. I get so tired of people not doing it the recommended way and then saying it's harmful. Or expecting it to work over night. Stephanie's(The Iodine list Mom) husband took at least a year to bring his Hashi's antibodies down to nothing. So it's a long term thing, and sometimes in the interim the thyroid usually WILL swell to grab more Iodine, when it has enough it will start to reduce in size. My thyroid kind of went up and down in size for two months or so before it settled down. But man oh man the detoxing I was doing during that time. I won't say that my thyroid swelling up even more, like that didn't scare me to death, it did, but I was also told that it would go back down again, and it did. But I guess everyone gets to health in their own way, there are many choices out there and a lot of research. I researched Iodine, the recommendations of nutrients to take with it and why, and the even the reports against it, thoroughly for several months before I made the decision to buy the Iodine and give it go. I haven't been sorry yet. Well except for an initial bad detox/herx reaction, LOL. I haven't lowered my thyroid med dose yet, I still have to get blood work done to see what my TSH, T4, T3 levels are doing.

Selenium can inhibit the conversion of T4 (storage hormone) to T3 (active hormone). Iodine is the base of thyroid hormones, most of which made is T4.

Re: CShypothyroid
Hi Leslie, You should be proud of yourself. Pulling the whole thing without any public help ! The thyroid is a small gland situated in the anterior center of the neck. It produces several hormones but the two major ones affecting the metabolism are thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3 ). The amounts produced are based on a signal from the brain which sends a master hormone known as TSH. The thyroid produces mostly T4 (inactive form) and a little bit of T3 (active form). The hormones circulate in the blood stream and as needed the liver (mostly) converts the T4 form into the T3 and other lesser forms. The T3 moves into the cells where it cooperates to stimulate the metabolism to produce energy. To learn the levels of T3/T4 you need a medical laboratory ands someone who understands this complicated mechanism (many MD do not!) and can make sense of it. But there is a simple test that will show you whether your metabolic rate is slow (which means low levels of TSH, T4 or poor comversion). It is called the Coca test discovered by Dr Coca at a time when MDs used to observe and think. Take a thermometer (glass best) and place it next to your bedside so that you do not have to move much in the AM upon weakening to reach it. Shake it down the night before. As you wake up and very slowly take the thermometer and place it under you arm. After ten minutes take the temperature and go about your day. Repeat the routine for seven consecutive days. Average the temperatures. The optimal range is 97.8F to 98.2F I below suspect low thryroid function. Mexican pharmacies (internt very inexpensive) ship a natural thryroid extract (is made in USA!) that contains a fairly well standarized amount of hormone and could be your best bet if the basal temperature is really low. If the temperature is low but close then use Lugol (start with just a few drops a day in water (no juices or sodas) preferebly in an empty stomach. Increase litle by little and retest you basal temperature ever month and plot to see the trend. Vitamins A and D, selenium and zinc the amino-acid tyrosine and iodine are the ingredients and cofactors that make the hormones. You may want to supplement as well.

Selenium is the major co-factor for the enzyme 5' diodinase which is responsible for the convesrsion of T4 into T3. Studies prove lower conversion rates in individuals with low selenium. Other studies reveal that increasing selenium is beneficial to the conversion and furthermore it reduces the formation of rT3. Oliveri O, Gerelli et al. Selenium Zinc and thyroid hormones in healthy subjects low ratio of t3/t4 in older subjects Biol Trace Elem Res 1996;51 31-41 Kralik A, Eder K, et al.

Re: CShypothyroid
Hi Lesie, You can also get Standard Process, Adrenal, Desicated, via Amazon for about $12.00 per 90 tablets. FWIW, Craig Frank wrote: Hi Leslie, You should be proud of yourself. Pulling the whole thing without any public help ! The thyroid is a small gland situated in the anterior center of the neck. It produces several hormones but the two major ones affecting the metabolism are thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3 ). The amounts produced are based on a signal from the brain which sends a master hormone known as TSH. The thyroid produces mostly T4 (inactive form) and a little bit of T3 (active form). The hormones circulate in the blood stream and as needed the liver (mostly) converts the T4 form into the T3 and other lesser forms. The T3 moves into the cells where it cooperates to stimulate the metabolism to produce energy. To learn the levels of T3/T4 you need a medical laboratory ands someone who understands this complicated mechanism (many MD do not!) and can make sense of it. But there is a simple test that will show you whether your metabolic rate is slow (which means low levels of TSH, T4 or poor comversion). It is called the Coca test discovered by Dr Coca at a time when MDs used to observe and think. Take a thermometer (glass best) and place it next to your bedside so that you do not have to move much in the AM upon weakening to reach it. Shake it down the night before. As you wake up and very slowly take the thermometer and place it under you arm. After ten minutes take the temperature and go about your day. Repeat the routine for seven consecutive days. Average the temperatures. The optimal range is 97.8F to 98.2F I below suspect low thryroid function. Mexican pharmacies (internt very inexpensive) ship a natural thryroid extract (is made in USA!) that contains a fairly well standarized amount of hormone and could be your best bet if the basal temperature is really low. If the temperature is low but close then use Lugol (start with just a few drops a day in water (no juices or sodas) preferebly in an empty stomach. Increase litle by little and retest you basal temperature ever month and plot to see the trend. Vitamins A and D, selenium and zinc the amino-acid tyrosine and iodine are the ingredients and cofactors that make the hormones. You may want to supplement as well.

Re: CShypothyroid
If you don't take enough selenium with the Iodine it WILL cause you grief and CAN damage the thyroid. I've upped my dose to 50 mg per day of 2% Lugol's, I started with 5 mg and worked my way up slowly, and I take 400 - 600 mg of the selenomethionine form of Selenium daily. When I don't take the Iodine I feel like crap. My thyroid felt swollen on one side and I had a small nodule on my thyroid which is slowly shrinking. The doc did not do a thyroid antibody test but he did say I had elevated antibodies according to my lab results. When I first started taking the Iodine my thyroid swelled some, but it is now a normal size. I feel physically much better. Detox/herx symptoms can be a bear but if you take extra magnesium, vit C, selenium, zinc and copper, and manganese, and use sea salt and plenty of water this can be reduced greatly. That and backing off on the dose until you feel a bit better. If you have a lot of toxins to detox the detox pathways can be overcome and this causes the detox/herx symptoms, or a viral load die off, or candida/fungus die off. The minerals the shepherd the halides, mercury and other stuff out are the ones I've listed above. You don't have a chance to get too much of them because the get used up binding to toxins and carrying them out, usually through the urine. And the body needs some of them for regular maintenance and enzyme production. I also added milk thistle, and dandelion to my regime to support the liver, and R ALA to boost glutathione. It also helped that I found a pitcher that filters everything including 80 - 90 % of fluoride from my tap water. And cutting out MSG, aspartame, and breads made from brominated flours, as well as all soft drinks, and upping my pure water intake to nearly 90 0z per day. I also added vit D3, and sea salt to my regime quite a while back and cut out almost all the processed salt. Those with autoimmune hypothyroid issues MUST take the selenium, it's NOT an option, or it WILL cause problems, especially with antibodies. I get so tired of people not doing it the recommended way and then saying it's harmful. Or expecting it to work over night. Stephanie's(The Iodine list Mom) husband took at least a year to bring his Hashi's antibodies down to nothing. So it's a long term thing, and sometimes in the interim the thyroid usually WILL swell to grab more Iodine, when it has enough it will start to reduce in size. My thyroid kind of went up and down in size for two months or so before it settled down. But man oh man the detoxing I was doing during that time. I won't say that my thyroid swelling up even more, like that didn't scare me to death, it did, but I was also told that it would go back down again, and it did. But I guess everyone gets to health in their own way, there are many choices out there and a lot of research.
