Its a slow and gradual process and can be hard to notice things from day to day but looking back over months one can often see the change.

With that being said, are you taking all the cosupplements?

While there is no doubt Iodine is good for a great many things its not the do all and be all of nutritional health, just one of the most common deficiencies we all face.

Any time there is an energy issue, brain issue or skin issue thats not resolved by iodine, one has to look closely at the B vitamins. They play a crucial role in energy production, cell replication (including red blood cells which carry oxygen) and nerve function. Most brain/cognitive issues benefit greatly from proper B supplementation.

What I strive for is:

Jarrow B-right complex 2x a day
solgar metafolin 800mcg 2x a day

source naturals dibencosise and methylcobalamin 10-40mg each per day. day(split into up to 4 doses) let dissolve between cheeck and gum for at least 45 minutes

niacin (nicotinic acid) currently at 500mg 4x a day, working up to 3000mg.

Ferventer is correct about the co-supplements. They are CRITICALLY important.

My experience says that Vitamin D3 is also essential for optimal health if you don't get enough direct sunlight. I used to suffer TERRIBLE chest colds every winter & spring, also whenever the Flu was going around, I caught that, too. 10,000 IU Vitamin D3 ended that nightmare 8 years ago. No more chest colds, no more flu since. Get your at home blood test and adjust D3 until your blood measures 70 to 80 ng/ml. Most people require 8,000 to 10,000 IU geltabs made with olive oil.

I started noticing improvements in my prostate within 6 months of starting iodine. But I started with 1/2mg a day, and took 6 months to get to 25mg. I avoided ALL detox symptoms by titrating so slowly.

Be patient, you are on the right path and health improvements come slowly. See our testimonials for real life stories:

Best to you,
Grizz

I was playing around with 6-25mgs for a couple weeks and had to stop because I felt terrible. I then jumped in head first, with 100mgs and made it up to 300mgs a couple weeks later of (lugols 5%). Co factors were crucial. It took about a week maybe 2 and felt fantastic. detox was a little harsh, had some major emotions come up, was angry and sad, pretty intense. made it past though and my mood is wayyyyy more stable now. I think selenium and salt were crucial. Also like grizz says I feel vitamin d was super important (I cant emphasize that enough), but i jumped on that band wagon years ago. I also take zinc (good for colds). That said since adding iodine, I havent really been sick in the past 6 months. That said I use oil of oregano at any sign of the sniffles, and kapow 1-2 days later i feel 100% again.

I used to get colds all the time before I started Zinc, they became much less frequent after, now with my regimine, I dont seem to get sick at all....



I still see some improvemets.
