I’ll chime in on the iodine thing; the best form is either Iodoral, which is pill form, or Lugol’s which is liquid. Both have the right ratio of iodide to iodine.
I buy mine at either www.breastcancerchoices.org or Swanson’s Vitamins. Swanson’s often offers coupons and has free shipping.
The typical maintenance dose of iodine is 50mg/day. The RDA in the US is 150 mcg, or about 5000x less than what you should be getting. Just know that iodine is a VERY effective detox so you need to be on the ‘protocol’ of other supps which are: magnesium, selenium, vitamin C and good (unrefined) salt.
Thanks, good info! Dr Brownstein says the exact same thing.
