this IS one of the major sticking points regarding Iodine supplementation. i believe it is why i had to struggle for four years to get to the point of taking iodine. all of my experience up to that point showed that most of what was wrong with me was being poisoned. Iodine is now correcting what avoidance of toxins could not. it also shows that avoiding toxins is not good enough.
using Iodine like a drug to cure your ills is very wrong thinking. it is not a drug. it is simply an essential nutrient. but it is overall lifestyle which cures and prevents disease. there are no shortcuts to that, short of fasting.
if drinking a soda is more important to a person than maintaining good health, then it is clear the person is not serious about being healthy. what they want is avoidance of the consequences of their lifestyle. who doesnt?
even for those who are miraculously and instantaniously healed, the message is always the same for everyone: go and sin no more.
