Iodine can be WAY Beneficial; Here’s Why.

(Below is in response to one of my program participants asking me about why iodine is important, and her not understanding what detoxification is and why it is so crucial to good health and weight management):

I would not be able to advise you on what you should or shouldn’t be doing.  Instead I can give you a little more info and tell you about what I/we do/use:

Bromide is all over flour products as part of the processing of flours.  We have massive exposures to it in the western world (see more in link below).  Chlorine is in the water both via drinking, showering, and huge exposure via swimming.  It occurs naturally in the body, but we are over-exposed according to theories we support and it then displaces iodine in the body, an element we count on for antipathogen properties among a host of other benefits such as metabolism.  Breast and prostate issues are being tied to iodine deficiency more and more, among a huge host of other problems, Fibromyalgia being a biggie.

You would have to talk to the companies and ask them about dosaging, since I do not sell the product.  I get mine from nutrimedical (Dr. Deagle), and I know people who get the Magnascent brand below.

Detoxification is simply about removing the toxic burden from our bodies.  It is so pervasive in our lives now that I personally feel it needs to be done daily and for life, else we accumulate the toxins which can lead to problems.  The body tries to segregate toxins as best it can (including into fat cells) but all of this requires energy and taxes the body, and leads to illness.

Anyone can feel the detox from iodine.  I started at one drop and added a drop a day tapering off around 4 drops for a while, then moved up into higher drops.  Dr. Deagle at the nutrimedical site I referenced above discusses 15 drops a day, even twice a day for ill folks.  The thing about that is, mid-back/kidney discomfort will surely be felt when people take this much.  If a person can get there without back pain, all the better (they will usually derive lots of benefits…less illness, sharper mind, more energy, easier weight loss, etc) but most of us are so toxic that the discomfort is felt as the kidneys get loaded with the mainly bromide that the iodine is displacing in the body…iodine going where it SHOULD go, where the bromide should NOT be, on the cell receptors).  The standard protocol once kidney discomfort is felt is to back off the iodine for a few days, and take in lots of water with extra crystal salt (MUST be a full-spectrum salt, not table salt/sodium chloride).  I take a quarter teaspoon of crystal salt a few times a day for this purpose, also called a “salt push.”  It relieves the discomfort within a couple days.  Then I resume the iodine, placing it on my arm and leg joints or near the joints out of personal preference.  Occasionally a drop near my groin for prostate benefit.

Too many people notice really great benefits from gentle, and long-term experimentation with iodine supplementation.  People report feeling better than ever.

Hence my email on it, since that’s what I’m all about.   😉

Serious Detoxification with Iodine.

The “Big Announcement” will be arriving two weeks from now at latest.  I am finalizing some necessary testing, and some third parties are getting involved.  Due to specific circumstances, I will not be able to divulge the info until then, but I have been promised two weeks from now everything WILL be in place.

 
There are other great new developments as well, but for today, I just wanted to focus on something that I’ve added to my program, that those who are well past the first month of emails will not have been exposed to; and it’s important to everyone, so please take a moment:
 
When we do our cleansing fast, we are of course in a process of detoxification, the focus being the colon.  This is a great first step, as clearing out the colon helps make other forms of detoxification even more efficient.
 
Another form of detox that is readily felt by most people when tried is the use of nascent iodine.
 
This is a supplement I have referenced in passing in my program, that can and has for many people produced profound benefits, even going so far as to reduce various pain issues and symptoms often labeled as Fibromyalgia.
 
Iodine needs to be used very prudently and very carefully.  It was removed from our food supply in what many researchers believe was one of the greatest dietary mistakes the powers-that-be have ever made.  I’m not too far from disagreeing.  There are several areas where western society has become either insufficient or outright deficient in nutrients, the most popular of which are vitamin D, B12 (I stick to the methyl variety only) and perhaps vitamin C (I get most of mine from camu berry, but will use ascorbic acid on occasion mostly for therapeutic applications).
 
With iodine, I started out at a mere one drop on my arm of the nascent iodine.  I then went to two drops the next day.
 
After a short time, I began to experience mid-back/kidney discomfort.
 
This is the sign that my kidney’s are being overloaded.
 
And that an effective detoxification is in place.
 
Iodine displaces fluoride, chlorine, and bromide in the body.  It will temporarily build up in the kidneys producing a mild discomfort, which I then eliminate via temporarily stopping the iodine use, and taking in 1/4 teaspoon of salt with lots of water several times a day (known as a “salt push”).
 
For me, and many others, part of the detox effect will also include a bit of brain fog.  But it has also resulted in increased energy and clarity, and an apparent positive effect on mitochondria, our energy centers at the cellular level.
 
Most people simply notice the benefits.
 
It has been one of those worthwhile paths I’ve taken that I thought I’d share more on with the FLFL community.
 
The exciting news IS coming, stay tuned!!!!!
 
Love, Happiness, Health and Peace……………….Tim  🙂
