Thanks for this video and the history of why doc are scared of iodine. I'm currently taking NP thyroid meds, and eating a Keto-carnivor diet. I had my thyroid panel done yesterday and started taking iodine drops. I'll go back to the doc in 2 months to see what happens.

Followup?? Did your TSH inexplicably go up? Mine did after 30 days which I read was normal at first since there actually raw materials available now - my free T3 and Free T4 were in the very low side of normal and no antibodies- also tremendously upped by D3 to help the T4 to T3 conversion and stop any autoimmune attacks

Hi Judy..Thank you for bringing iodine to my attention. I bought a bottle of 2% Lougal a while back but I was afraid to take it. I take 60 mg of NP Thyroid daily. Although I am carnivore I have low energy and depression. My Dr. gave me a T3 back in February and I had a terrible reaction to it. Was sent to ER. They thought I was having a stroke. My Dr. said he had never seen anything like it. I am much better. I'm 75 and have always been blessed with good health. I took 2 drops of iodine this morning. I'm wondering if I will have any reaction. Thank you for listening.
I’ve never been diagnosed so just taking for general use mine is in algae not medical form I think I am in sterling health. 79 still big exercising 2 miles jog every morning more step racing 8-10 miles. I’ve been a Carnivore for three years. Never considered it might be problem…..
I had radio-active iodine in 2006. I'm on 100mcg levothyroxine. I've never felt the same since. I have fibro, cfs, menooausal symptoms, breast cysts and tenderness, cyst on my left ovary and polyp in my cervix. Post-menooausal bleed. My uterine lining is 5mm. I'm having a biopsy next week. I've started carnivore. I'm wondering if I could benefit from taking Lugols iodine?
I had radioactive iodine (I-131) for treatment of Graves’ disease, took Lugols 2%, two drops daily for over a month…had my labs done recently and my TPA is nearly off the charts. My thyroid is so dead it can’t handle it. I’ve stopped and am having labs redone in 4 weeks to make sure TPA has come back down. TSH on levothyroxine is spot on, in range. Just sharing in case others may have the same experience.
Very interesting. I tried titrating up to 10 drops of Lugol's 2% (=25mg) but I noticed my voice started sounding quite hoarse, swallowing felt difficult, and my TSH, TPO, and TAb all increased. Judy, does anyone else's thyroid antibodies increase with iodine, maybe temporarily and then decrease back to normal range? I'm 95% carnivore for 3 years. Maybe I'm just full of the other halides?
A few years ago I tried the Lugols iodine 2 percent. I worked my way up to 6 drops. I felt great. After a couple of weeks I got slurred speech and my BP went up. I went to the ER feeling like I had ( from others describing it) a stroke or mini strokes. Nothing showed up on the tests. I have been afraid of iodine because of this. I tried a smaller amount and still had reaction. I finally got some that is 50 micro grams per drop. I am now on 8 drops per day. I do have symptoms hypo thyroid. I'm not sure what happened but now my husband is scared to death of iodine.
Could it be detoxing flouride from tap water or showering/ bathing and detoxing bromides or halides and not the iodine itself? I learned those unhealthy halides take up the receptors and have to be pushed out which makes ppl feel yucky, detoxing feel terrible but it allows the iodine to be absorbed and do it's job to protect our bodies from absorbing the bad halides, so it could just be a detox reaction.
My daughter goes from test seeming hypo, and sometimes hyper thyroid issues, she has heavy menses, and now bleeding for days and days between periods. They gave her some hormone but not helping and she has migraine issues so they didn't want to giver her any other hormones. Maybe they gave her progesterone. Not helping. I want her to get good help but no one is figuring her out. I had have same problems of no one helps now I'm old and so sick. I had diagnosed with low thyroid, in my family too, so was my husband.
@@akseverson thanks, I meant I had have things where try to get help but never a good solution so it just goes on. I have the iodine. My daughters heavy periods now bleeding all the time, her losing energy racing heart, migraine type problems, were not my symptoms. All the diet things she's been told didn't help her so she's pretty much done listening to that advice
Your poor baby, definitely have her go carnivore until her hormones get regular then she can add fruit if she wants. No need to but kids love fruit. Also make sure she gets lots of healthy animal fats. I feed my son only meat and fruit, he’s 13 and before I changed his diet he was getting lots of acne. My husband said it’s normal because he had it and still gets lots of acne well guess what it’s not normal. I changed his diet and his face cleared up immediately. It’s all the processed food that is messing up our hormones.
I started taking iron pills when on my period because I would bleed excessively.. sometimes 3 months long. Start with one day 3 iron pills the next day 2 and each day of bleeding 1 pill. She will notice a huge difference. I also started using cloth pads because the chemicals in the store pads are so toxic actually induse more bleeding

I would very much like to know what Dr. Bright thinks about iodine supplementation for those with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, many studies indicate that it is harmful and causes oxidative stress to the thyroid.
From what I’ve read, it seems like small doses of iodine (micrograms) will worsen Hashimoto’s, but larger doses, in the milligrams like they talked about in the video, will actually reduce the antibodies and heal Hashimoto’s
@@fromspace7 Really? That's interesting. I sure would like to have the help of an experienced provider walk me through this, because my antibodies have shot up, and I'm only taking one drop per day. And 10 drops per day (25mg) caused a sore throat and difficulty swallowing.
I have grave's disease. All the information says do not take iodine with grave's disease. What does Dr Bright think? Yes or No to iodine for grave's patients?
there are scientific claims that iodine has remarkable anti-cancer properties. an important point: does iodine work against not just endocrine tumors/cancers but any type of 'common' and rare tumors/cancers (eg. teratomas, solitary fibrous tumors, bone cancer, brain tumors, etc.) regardless of size/cause/location/prevalence/incidence/severity, especially as all tumors and cancers share the same growth-spread pathways and mechanisms...?
Dr Bright has spoken of seaweed in other interviews. I thought so, too, but she has spoken of how everywhere is depleted of iodine including the ocean. Also seaweed is high in oxalates.
enjoyed this show! Is there hope for people like me? I have been on synthroid for nearly 35 years, have no visible improvements of my symptoms. Really want to get off the meds. Can iodine help me while on synthroid or no? Thanks for bringing this truly critical information to women. Thank you!
If you do not have improvements despite medicin what do you have to lose if you try something else? There is always hope, the body is a self healing machine if you give it the right fuel. ❤
I was wondering about supplementing with Iodine, I was told after having my thyroid completely removed 9 years ago, do not eat iodine. That if the surgeon left any tissues behind it could make it grow back and I could get cancer again. No I don't think that is true... Could you enlighten me?
I heard her say on another interview that Lugols is the best. She nixed kelp because of the crap in the ocean and the tablets are also not pure. Just take a look at the other ingredients list on the bottles. Yuck.
What your body doesn’t need of Lugols, you will pee out. I would throw out everything else and stick with 5% Lugols. At two drops a day, it would last you about 300 days. 10 cents a day. That’s a great deal.
@@MacGregor9488 If you haven't found any still, J. Crow is Dr. Bright's recommended brand. They have 5% bottles, but they apparently sell them only on their own website, 30$ a pop. Otherwise, it's very easy to make yourself and far cheaper, if you remember even a little bit from your high school chemistry class. You just need distilled water, pure potassium iodide, and pure elemental iodine. Mix them together is a glass jar in the correct proportions to yield your own 5% solution. Then put the jar away in a dark spot for 24 hours. Done!
Pls tell me if i should take iodine when i had benign breast fibroadenoma and benign thyroid nodule. That's all i know. My dr at that time didnt check my hormon level so i dont know i am low or high on thyroid hormone. But i have been feeling exhausted , tired , and shortness of breath with many other strange symtoms (headache, abdominal pain) for years. Pls help me if i should use iodine.
If you don’t get iodine in your diet, you will eventually develop thyroid problems, as well as problems with the breasts and eventually breast cancer (in men prostate)
Thank you very much for all this information I have a question if you take iodine drops how can you take them but selenium can you show a video on that because I am confused about this information
EVERTIME I take 3 drops of iodine Iafter about 3 days I seen mmm to get shortness of breath or struggle to yawn like I can take a deep breath it also happens to my husband also How does everyone else star to take it and in how much water a day Also what’s the info on salt loading please ? How to do that Thanks

Ive been on synthroid 50 mg for 7 years for hyperthyroidism but my levels keep going down and my corporate health care have no solutions. So i started doing lugols 2% for a few days and rubbing peppermint oil on my throat for energy. They told me i cant go off my meds. Then i read all the stuff about iodine and cancer To thyroid and stopped. Not sure if i can mix it with the Synthroid.?
I had a normal TSH of 1.92 March1st (started Carnivore Jan 1st), started taking Lugol's Iodine 5% 2 drops and my TSH shot to 5.18 April 23rd - now I have Subclinical Hypothyroidism???
According to Dr. Brownstein, this is an expected result. It rises naturally for a few months or so. Find the videos with iodine and Dr. Brownstein and you will see how he explains this. This is typical and normal once you start supplementing with iodine levels eventually go back to normal.
@@casperinsight3524it's 1.1 - I just had it checked a week ago. And it did come down a few weeks. Iodine did get it a temporary rise but as soon as I stopped taking it it normalized.
Can anybody share with us how to do the recipe for salt and water? Do we have to mix the iodine drops in it ?? or what and for how long do you have to do that? Please share it with us. Thank you.
Dr Brownstein talks about it in his videos. I had to do it. If I recall correctly, I took a teaspoon of salt everyday for a week. Just mix it with water and drink it. After the week you can take iodine without a herx reaction.
It can jump back and forth between hypo and hyper. I watched Dr Brownstein on a Dr Berry video. IMO just start with 1 drop per day for a week and see how you feel. That is better than starting really high and dealing with symptoms of detox. I don't mind the taste, so I just use a shotglass of water and one drop. If two drops fall in some days, oh well. No matter.

@@CG-mj8tk no it did not help a bit. Used 50 mg for 3 months, gradual increase of dose. Dint help. It reduces estrogen. So I started getting acne. For those whose fibroids are due to estrogen dominance, heavy bleeding, for them it might help. Mine are not due to estrogen dominance. My estrogen is on lower side with scanty bleeding. Too low I think.
Ur detoxing Eat carnivore and take breaks w/the iodine. 5 days on, 2 days off. Repeat. When u can handle the 1 drop for a month straight, add another and if get symptoms do 5 on, 2 off again.
2 drops a day in glass of water according to Dr Elizabeth Bright interview with ‘Steak and Butter Gal’ - th-cam.com/video/5ga1j7TZeE0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2iu7XghDyVeVX3Xu
Lugol's Iodine Solution Chart Milligrams of Iodine per Drop: 5% --> 6.25 mg x 2 drops = 12.5 mg 2% --> 2.50 mg x 5 drops = 12.5 mg 12.5 mg of iodine should be the minimum this is from Lynne Farrow's book
2 drops a day in water preferably first thing in morning according to Dr Bright interview with ‘Steak and Butter Gal’ - th-cam.com/video/5ga1j7TZeE0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2iu7XghDyVeVX3Xu
2 drops is maintenance dosage, as in if you're thyroid is already healthy and well-functioning. If you're iodine depleted and you thyroid is messed up, you'll likely need more than that for awhile. And those 2 drops are of 5% Lugol's solution. 2% Lugol's has less than half the concentration of iodine, so you would need to take more than double the amount if that's what you have.
So I have a form of iodine that is nascent Buy a brand named global healing Centre. It’s quite a potent extract I’m just wondering if anyone has information about using this form of iodine Thank you
@@amandafuller7206 sorry it's not a brand. LUGOL'S is an aqueous solution containing Iodine 5%, and potassium iodide 10%, w/v (LUGOL's Solution). LUGOL's is a transparent liquid with a deep brown color and the odor of iodine.
My TSH went up to 9.5 from about 3- but just on iodine for 30 days and temp went slowly up to normal in the 4th week and mega Ds so no thyroid antibodies due to the D
@@NutritionwithJudy she asked for natural sources in which I assumed was a question of food sources with higher iodine content. Lugol's and iodine protocol are great but some people want it in their food, too.
I don't think the answer is carnivore, at least not permanently. The blue zone centenarian people who live to be over 100 are eating low meat.. Like twice a week on average. Iodine is fat soluble so that might be why it appears to work better with carnivore, as virtually all meats have fat. But you can for example just squirt some healthy olive oil on some lentils and then add the drops of iodine.
I started taking Lugol's 2%. Yes, I was concerned at first it might be too much, so at the start I took only 1 drop of Lugol's per week. But in a few weeks I realized the day after I took 1 drop, I felt better compared to other days. So I began taking 1 drop a day and it was good as far as I could tell. I am not strict about having a drop every day. I will skip a day here and there if I don't feel like drinking as much water that day, because I always put the drop of Lugol's into a liter of water so if I don't feel thirsty enough to drink water, then I don't worry about missing the iodine that day. I am carnivore and I have diabetes.
Did a 24 hour iodine test came back at 62% what is the ideal level? What is it supposed to be at? I can only find 2% iodine, so does that mean I’m taking five drops instead of two drops of the 5%?
Yes, she says the minimum dose is 5 drops of 2% lugols iodine But I think I remember her saying to work up to that amount. Like start with 1 or 2 drops for a week, then add another drop or 2
My granddaughter had an 8cm cyst removed along with one of her ovaries, when she was 6 and her remaining ovary has many small cysts. Would you recommend iodine for her - she’s now 11, and her mum is worried about her mensies being very difficult for her

Although I am carnivore I have low energy and depression. My Dr. gave me a T3 back in February and I had a terrible reaction to it. Was sent to ER. They thought I was having a stroke. My Dr. said he had never seen anything like it. I am much better. I'm 75 and have always been blessed with good health. I took 2 drops of iodine this morning. I'm wondering if I will have any reaction. Thank you for listening.
You eat less fat than required I assume if you have low energy... Also take electrolyte minerals
I always see these videos pushing lugols iodine. Can someone tell me why it seems to be more popular than nascent colloidal iodine
I’ve never been diagnosed so just taking for general use mine is in algae not medical form I think I am in sterling health. 79 still big exercising 2 miles jog every morning more step racing 8-10 miles. I’ve been a Carnivore for three years. Never considered it might be problem…..
according to Dr. Elizabeth Bright At what times of the day can iodine be taken? thanks Judy
Is it good to take the drops separate times, like 2 in the morning 2 at night if you do more than 2 drops or what
Ideally you would want energy earlier in the day so you can sleep at night. I would say morning and lunch but haven't tried it yet 😉
Take all at once
In morning
I’m up to 10 drops of 2% now
Going to saturate tissues for 3 mos-at 20 drops
I had radio-active iodine in 2006. I'm on 100mcg levothyroxine. I've never felt the same since. I have fibro, cfs, menooausal symptoms, breast cysts and tenderness, cyst on my left ovary and polyp in my cervix. Post-menooausal bleed. My uterine lining is 5mm. I'm having a biopsy next week.
I've started carnivore.
I'm wondering if I could benefit from taking Lugols iodine?
I can say it improved my breast tissue a lot.
Use kelp tablets or powder pls avoid lugols
Lugols 2% Thyroid definitely needs it & shares it with the organs throughout the body.
I had radioactive iodine (I-131) for treatment of Graves’ disease, took Lugols 2%, two drops daily for over a month…had my labs done recently and my TPA is nearly off the charts. My thyroid is so dead it can’t handle it. I’ve stopped and am having labs redone in 4 weeks to make sure TPA has come back down. TSH on levothyroxine is spot on, in range. Just sharing in case others may have the same experience.
@@edimoelvis9904kelp is useless
Seaweeds iodine is not bioavailable as 99% of the time the case w/plants’ nutrients
I got some kelp pills for the iodine content ... Already feel more energy
Same here
I tried kelp but they make me nauseous
Very interesting. I tried titrating up to 10 drops of Lugol's 2% (=25mg) but I noticed my voice started sounding quite hoarse, swallowing felt difficult, and my TSH, TPO, and TAb all increased. Judy, does anyone else's thyroid antibodies increase with iodine, maybe temporarily and then decrease back to normal range? I'm 95% carnivore for 3 years. Maybe I'm just full of the other halides?
Stop the carnivore eating disorder already!
Titratie down to
12mg which is dr brownstein’s dosage for average person
Thyroid hormones temporarily increase but go back down to normal
YES
TSH can increase at first but will go back down in a few mos
@@aalliaandreadis5109Trolls room is down the hall->
A few years ago I tried the Lugols iodine 2 percent. I worked my way up to 6 drops. I felt great. After a couple of weeks I got slurred speech and my BP went up. I went to the ER feeling like I had ( from others describing it) a stroke or mini strokes. Nothing showed up on the tests. I have been afraid of iodine because of this. I tried a smaller amount and still had reaction. I finally got some that is 50 micro grams per drop. I am now on 8 drops per day. I do have symptoms hypo thyroid. I'm not sure what happened but now my husband is scared to death of iodine.
Could it be detoxing flouride from tap water or showering/ bathing and detoxing bromides or halides and not the iodine itself? I learned those unhealthy halides take up the receptors and have to be pushed out which makes ppl feel yucky, detoxing feel terrible but it allows the iodine to be absorbed and do it's job to protect our bodies from absorbing the bad halides, so it could just be a detox reaction.
I had slurred speech. I just don't do well with iodine.
@@lindawalton3969yes becuz u were detoxing fluoride n bromide
My daughter goes from test seeming hypo, and sometimes hyper thyroid issues, she has heavy menses, and now bleeding for days and days between periods. They gave her some hormone but not helping and she has migraine issues so they didn't want to giver her any other hormones. Maybe they gave her progesterone. Not helping. I want her to get good help but no one is figuring her out. I had have same problems of no one helps now I'm old and so sick. I had diagnosed with low thyroid, in my family too, so was my husband.
Try the Lugol's Iodine. Also eat more meat, butter, eggs. Give it 6-8 weeks and see how you feel.
@@akseverson thanks, I meant I had have things where try to get help but never a good solution so it just goes on. I have the iodine. My daughters heavy periods now bleeding all the time, her losing energy racing heart, migraine type problems, were not my symptoms. All the diet things she's been told didn't help her so she's pretty much done listening to that advice
Your poor baby, definitely have her go carnivore until her hormones get regular then she can add fruit if she wants. No need to but kids love fruit. Also make sure she gets lots of healthy animal fats. I feed my son only meat and fruit, he’s 13 and before I changed his diet he was getting lots of acne. My husband said it’s normal because he had it and still gets lots of acne well guess what it’s not normal. I changed his diet and his face cleared up immediately. It’s all the processed food that is messing up our hormones.
I started taking iron pills when on my period because I would bleed excessively.. sometimes 3 months long. Start with one day 3 iron pills the next day 2 and each day of bleeding 1 pill. She will notice a huge difference. I also started using cloth pads because the chemicals in the store pads are so toxic actually induse more bleeding
@@Ap-wz5rrYESSSSSS 💯 processed fortified sweetened cardboard frakenfood with colorings and preservatives are not healthy. Especially processed seed oils in margarine, salad dressings, canola oils, etc.
So.... lugol's iodine is good, or is that the bad kind? I think she meant lugols is the good kind.
Lugol’s is what Dr Bright recommends
I would very much like to know what Dr. Bright thinks about iodine supplementation for those with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, many studies indicate that it is harmful and causes oxidative stress to the thyroid.
From what I’ve read, it seems like small doses of iodine (micrograms) will worsen Hashimoto’s, but larger doses, in the milligrams like they talked about in the video, will actually reduce the antibodies and heal Hashimoto’s
Most studies have probably been done using small doses of iodine, since the officially recommended daily intake is only 150mcg
@@fromspace7 Interesting
@@fromspace7 Really? That's interesting. I sure would like to have the help of an experienced provider walk me through this, because my antibodies have shot up, and I'm only taking one drop per day. And 10 drops per day (25mg) caused a sore throat and difficulty swallowing.
@@dianavp9054 look up Dr David Brownstein!

Recently i bought lugols iodine and the color of the solution is changed to light brown.. is it ok to use it?
there are scientific claims that iodine has remarkable anti-cancer properties. an important point: does iodine work against not just endocrine tumors/cancers but any type of 'common' and rare tumors/cancers (eg. teratomas, solitary fibrous tumors, bone cancer, brain tumors, etc.) regardless of size/cause/location/prevalence/incidence/severity, especially as all tumors and cancers share the same growth-spread pathways and mechanisms...?
I have Lugols 2% how much would you recommend for hot flashes/night sweats?
This is exactly what I wanted to know

Seaweed is best for iodine. It not only gives you iodine it has selenium and detox properties.
Dr Bright has spoken of seaweed in other interviews. I thought so, too, but she has spoken of how everywhere is depleted of iodine including the ocean. Also seaweed is high in oxalates.
Also seaweed contains mercury and other anti-nutrients other than oxalates and fiber 👍😊
You've been lied to.

If you do not have improvements despite medicin what do you have to lose if you try something else?
There is always hope, the body is a self healing machine if you give it the right fuel. ❤
What if someone has no thyroid due to cancer. Can they still take iodine?
Yes
I was wondering about supplementing with Iodine, I was told after having my thyroid completely removed 9 years ago, do not eat iodine. That if the surgeon left any tissues behind it could make it grow back and I could get cancer again. No I don't think that is true... Could you enlighten me?
Can i just eat butter by itself as a snack? Or do i have to eat it with meats?
You can eat it either way. Check out video by Steak and Butter gal for more info.
I eat it several times a day, about a tablespoon. Very satisfying.
You can eat it by itself. Check out recipe for butterbites
U can also even fat fast
Eat only pure fat for a couple, 3 days
Chilled meat fat is delish also
Crisped up fat trimmings is delightful
Is the Lugol's liquid solution better than kelp or iodine tablets? I take both at the moment. Would the drops be overkill? Can you take too much?
I heard her say on another interview that Lugols is the best. She nixed kelp because of the crap in the ocean and the tablets are also not pure. Just take a look at the other ingredients list on the bottles. Yuck.
What your body doesn’t need of Lugols, you will pee out. I would throw out everything else and stick with 5% Lugols. At two drops a day, it would last you about 300 days. 10 cents a day. That’s a great deal.
@@sharonweston5659 Thank you, I will try that!
@sharonweston5659 I can only find 2% do you know where to buy the 5% iodine?
@@MacGregor9488 If you haven't found any still, J. Crow is Dr. Bright's recommended brand. They have 5% bottles, but they apparently sell them only on their own website, 30$ a pop. Otherwise, it's very easy to make yourself and far cheaper, if you remember even a little bit from your high school chemistry class. You just need distilled water, pure potassium iodide, and pure elemental iodine. Mix them together is a glass jar in the correct proportions to yield your own 5% solution. Then put the jar away in a dark spot for 24 hours. Done!
Pls tell me if i should take iodine when i had benign breast fibroadenoma and benign thyroid nodule. That's all i know. My dr at that time didnt check my hormon level so i dont know i am low or high on thyroid hormone.

How about sea moss is it good for hythyroid? I am trying doing carnivore but i need to know more about something for my thyroid, thank you
My tsh went up to 6 as Judy Described some of her clients has had this experience. I wonder what she recommends if this happens ?
Me too, with only 25mg (10 drops of 2%), and my thyroid antibodies jumped (TPO and TAb).
Mine to up to 8. I just continued with the lugols. My body adjusted. Took a few months but I wasn't too concerned.
Keep on
The TSH will come back down

Can I take iodine even with no known problems with thyroid?
Yes! You can't get enough otherwise.
Yes, everyone needs iodine. It’s an essential nutrient.

Ive been on synthroid 50 mg for 7 years for hyperthyroidism but my levels keep going down and my corporate health care have no solutions. So i started doing lugols 2% for a few days and rubbing peppermint oil on my throat for energy. They told me i cant go off my meds. Then i read all the stuff about iodine and cancer To thyroid and stopped. Not sure if i can mix it with the Synthroid.?
I had a normal TSH of 1.92 March1st (started Carnivore Jan 1st), started taking Lugol's Iodine 5% 2 drops and my TSH shot to 5.18 April 23rd - now I have Subclinical Hypothyroidism???
According to Dr. Brownstein, this is an expected result. It rises naturally for a few months or so. Find the videos with iodine and Dr. Brownstein and you will see how he explains this. This is typical and normal once you start supplementing with iodine levels eventually go back to normal.
Curious where your TSH is now 6 mths later ?
@@casperinsight3524it's 1.1 - I just had it checked a week ago. And it did come down a few weeks. Iodine did get it a temporary rise but as soon as I stopped taking it it normalized.
TSH goes up at first
Goes back down in several mos
Drs freak out. Ignore their ignorance.
@@YeshuaKingMessiah yes everything normalized relatively quickly , however I have read it doesn't always
Can anybody share with us how to do the recipe for salt and water? Do we have to mix the iodine drops in it ?? or what and for how long do you have to do that? Please share it with us. Thank you.
Dr Brownstein talks about it in his videos. I had to do it. If I recall correctly, I took a teaspoon of salt everyday for a week. Just mix it with water and drink it. After the week you can take iodine without a herx reaction.
I took Lugol's iodine 4 drops daily. Now i have hyperthyroidism 😢 I'm not sure whatbto do. I though this was not harmful. Please be careful!
It can jump back and forth between hypo and hyper. I watched Dr Brownstein on a Dr Berry video. IMO just start with 1 drop per day for a week and see how you feel. That is better than starting really high and dealing with symptoms of detox. I don't mind the taste, so I just use a shotglass of water and one drop. If two drops fall in some days, oh well. No matter.
u might missed the selenium
@@dianavp9054Okay, do you mean 1 drop of 2% or a drop of 5%?
I developed hyperthyroidism on a low dose of Lugols too. I was taking selenium every day with it.

Anyone uses iodine for uterine fibroids ?
@@NutritionwithJudy I have started it. Hope so it helps me. Lets see. Trying to shrink 6 cm one.
@@joyoflearning2124 has Lugol's helped ur uterine fibroids?
@@CG-mj8tk no it did not help a bit. Used 50 mg for 3 months, gradual increase of dose. Dint help. It reduces estrogen. So I started getting acne. For those whose fibroids are due to estrogen dominance, heavy bleeding, for them it might help. Mine are not due to estrogen dominance. My estrogen is on lower side with scanty bleeding. Too low I think.
Dr Ken Berry suggests carnivore diet and the cysts shrinks according to him within three months
I'm one of those very reactive people to iodine. One drop, and my skin breaks out with acne
It’s likely part of the detox process that they mentioned in the video. Take sea salt or pink salt with water to flush out the toxins
Could be your body detoxing bromine and flouride. Dr. Brownstein speaks about this.
Ur detoxing
Eat carnivore and take breaks w/the iodine. 5 days on, 2 days off. Repeat. When u can handle the 1 drop for a month straight, add another and if get symptoms do 5 on, 2 off again.
How many drops should we use?
2 drops a day in glass of water according to Dr Elizabeth Bright interview with ‘Steak and Butter Gal’ - th-cam.com/video/5ga1j7TZeE0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2iu7XghDyVeVX3Xu
Lugol's Iodine Solution Chart
Milligrams of Iodine per Drop:
5% --> 6.25 mg x 2 drops = 12.5 mg
2% --> 2.50 mg x 5 drops = 12.5 mg
12.5 mg of iodine should be the minimum
this is from Lynne Farrow's book
Is that dosage daily?

@@paolaposadag.1797Yes

2 drops a day in water preferably first thing in morning according to Dr Bright interview with ‘Steak and Butter Gal’ - th-cam.com/video/5ga1j7TZeE0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2iu7XghDyVeVX3Xu
2 drops is maintenance dosage, as in if you're thyroid is already healthy and well-functioning. If you're iodine depleted and you thyroid is messed up, you'll likely need more than that for awhile. And those 2 drops are of 5% Lugol's solution. 2% Lugol's has less than half the concentration of iodine, so you would need to take more than double the amount if that's what you have.
A friend of mine told me that her son is allergic to iodine (a doctor told her this apparently ) since he is allergic to most fish?????

How much iodine do you recommend daily?
Dr. Bright recommends 4 drops Lugol’s 5%, daily.
I don't think the answer is carnivore, at least not permanently. The blue zone centenarian people who live to be over 100 are eating low meat.. Like twice a week on average. Iodine is fat soluble so that might be why it appears to work better with carnivore, as virtually all meats have fat. But you can for example just squirt some healthy olive oil on some lentils and then add the drops of iodine.
has anyone used iodine for phyllodes tumor on breasts?
What about desiccated thyroid for hashimotos
Was trying to find her opinion on that online 😅
I started taking Lugol's 2%. Yes, I was concerned at first it might be too much, so at the start I took only 1 drop of Lugol's per week. But in a few weeks I realized the day after I took 1 drop, I felt better compared to other days. So I began taking 1 drop a day and it was good as far as I could tell. I am not strict about having a drop every day. I will skip a day here and there if I don't feel like drinking as much water that day, because I always put the drop of Lugol's into a liter of water so if I don't feel thirsty enough to drink water, then I don't worry about missing the iodine that day.
