I don’t want to discount anyone, but there is a lot of truth to this. Almost every symptom of parasites I had, or thought was a parasite, ended up being something 100 x worse than a parasite.

Yeah... it IS sort of an iron kind of taste.

I only ever had it truly burn that one time when mixed with a starchy juice, but every now and then it sort of feels the same way a vodka drink might feel going down or something carbonated... not necessarily a burning sensation, hard to describe that too... but not with the magnets.

There has to be a better way to measure dosage... I think I’m taking way too much. I never bothered to count drops until today. I use the 7% Lugol’s - which states on the hang tag: Each full eyedropper (appr .75 ml) contains about 48 milligrams of iodine and 96 milligrams of potassium iodide. Total iodine per drop is approximately 7.25mg. I was thinking that 2 and a half droppers was about 120mg 48 x 2.5 = 120 I just NOW counted how many drops 2 and a half droppers were and it was about 62 drops. 62 x 7.25 = 449.5 So, WTH?? How did they get that 1 full eye dropper is 48 mg?? ...

Or, maybe it’s just this... Your husband was almost crushed to death one day in a horrible accident where 3 people died, but had a guardian angel sitting on his shoulder named IODINE that acted fast to save his life... and after witnessing that event, he decided that from this day forward, he wanted to make some much needed changes in his life. The fact that his father passed away from a heart attack at age 37... and his doctor just gave him a shiny new CPAP machine to sleep with because he’s overweight and developed sleep apnea could be a reason too? Maybe the clique at work are a ...

In my neck of the woods, the African people are being banned from everywhere. It was just all over the news that a hospital 45 min away from here had a person show up asking for an ebola screening because he just came from Liberia 2 weeks ago and his (college) room mates won’t let him back in until he gets tested. The hospital wouldn’t test... they sent him away because he had no symptoms other than a stiff n ...

Was that Lugols’s or SSKI? My break out was weird. I swore it was from the dry cleaning, but it was groups together on the left side of my chest and my left lung was the one that was always giving me crap. I’m fairly certain the infection was bacterial too... not just bronchitis from inflammation. Every now and then I’ll wake up with that weird, boogery taste that you get when a chest cold is coming on but it goes away by afternoon. So I think that my lungs are my toxin elimination organ... SOMETHING is in there that’s trying to come out either little by little or my immunr system is fig ...

Stories like this make me appreciate my doctors so much more. When I mention Iodine, they squeal a little. My kids pediatrician and whole family use iodine. His wife took a ton of Lugol’s during all her pregnancies... they normally take 50mg. They do the iodine tests too, but you have to pay out of pocket for the urine/loading test. I almost can’t wait to go back and let them listen to my lungs next week. I think diet is a major factor in fibroids too. Iodine is a big piece of the puzzle, but if the diet isn’t in check, its sort of undoing all the good iodine is doing. Preservativ ...

I started at around 120mg a month ago... nothing but good things happening. My detox was very mild. Day 2 I broke out on my chest with tiny littke pimples... they went away within a day or 2. Day 4 or 5 I woke up with a chest infection that was like bronchitis... coughing up green snot. That lasted maybe 4 or 5 days. That was about it for me. Trapper says detox comes in layers, so I doubt I’m out of the woods. Some people will do well for months and then hit a detox. It made me feel good from day 1. Like, a fog has been lifted. It doesn’t feel like energy or being wired... but more ...

Yeah... thinking outside the parasite box is what I call it. Did the peppers have seeds though? I’ve read a lot on here about white balls and sometimes people bust them open but don’t find anything inside. Thinking outside the parasite box, maybe it’s a liver stone of some sort? Or something calcified too? Way back in the beginning I saw 1 or 2 but they were green. I didn’t think it was possible because I don’t have a GB either, but apparently the liver still produces them. Calcium is one of the only few supplements I won’t touch because of how it builds up.   [End]

This is 99% of what drove me to iodine. The other 1% was to clear my lungs out. My: mother, both grandmothers, great grandmothers. 3 aunts, a first cousin and her 2 daughters and my younger sister ALL had FBD and uterine fibroids. They had their lady parts mauled repeatedly cutting out lumps to biopsy and ended up having mastectomies (except my sister and 2 - 2nd cousins) and hysterectomies by age 32. 1 had actual breast cancer eventually and died a slow, torturous death... but the others COULD have changed it instead of just accepting what was going on.

You sound like how I was. I went back and forth for a month before I took the plunge. I was afraid of detox and the supplement list was overwhelming, but I started them weeks in advance to get in the routine. The supplements, as I’ve found out, are the basic ones that we should all be taking anyway. I think your current cleanse may be beneficial in dumping a lot of your toxic load now and may help with less detox from iodine... I have friends at work who wanted to start iodine a week ago and i told them all to do a month long cleanse of the bowels, liver and kidneys before even attemptin ...

If you bought it online, can you post a link? If it says Lugol’s, then it should be fine. That’s made with water. The tincture is made with alcohol and not for oral use.

Does your bottle say how many mg of iodine each tablet contains? I had a not so pleasant reaction to the kelp supplements. Mine wasn’t in the form of detox, but I got very irritable and my mind was going a mile a minute. I had to leave work because I felt very disorganized and could not stay on task. The next day I had a hangover headache. They went right into the trash. Lugol’s was nowhere near that. I went by Trapper’s recommendation of 100mg (120ish mg) and had very mild detox for maybe 3 days the first week. Smooth sailing ever since and I can take as few as 7.25 mg and it feels ...

I think I misunderstand a lot! For some reason ALA or that in combination with my other supplements, which are just vitamins and cosupplements will either some how pull iodine out of my body and/or block it from being absorbed. Blood level was only 16 after taking 120mg of Lugol’s 3 hours prior and over 24 hours, more than 90% was excreted in urine. Also done with 120 mg as opposed to 50mg standard. Iodine testing without ALA will be done on the 20th. So I don’t know those numbers... just know it feels different when ALA is used.   [End]

It happens. Much of the US is up in arms and anxiously awaiting to see if any more cases will pop up - especially those who came in contact with Mr. Duncan.

I suppose finding out that he was not infected goes against the need to keep news sensational... so of course they wouldn’t report ...

my partner had a swollen lymph node on the one side about 4 days into iodine (16mg? 2 drops) and i was thinking it was because he had an impacted widsom tooth on that side that was infected. once it was removed, the swelling went down a couple days later... but it’s hard to say if that was the actual cause. if you have dental issues, maybe look into that too? i had the little sweat pimples the first week on iodine - on my chest, left side right under my collar bone, but they came and went within 2 days. maybe you’re only seeing it now because of the dosage increase?   [End]

I have very little understanding of the thyroid... Besides the basics. Dont get too discouraged. I’ve read where its taken some people as long as a year to start feeling effects.

I never did either until I was searching the ALA. I was wondering since that was an antioxidant and iodine is an oxidant.. if they are just cancelling each other out?
