As one who cannot eat shellfish
I was told that I was allergic to iodine. IF the reaction I had was due to iodine, it was that I was so incredibly DEFICIENT in
Iodine that the
Iodine I consumed was so much that my body simply couldn't handle it all at once. Keep in mind when I first started iodine, I was forced to start slow, and was reminded two times in the beginning to go very slow. (heart sped up, and got bigtime sweaty palms and nervousness)
I did learn that I CAN consume "detoxified iodine". The last time I ate crab (unbeknownst to me and years before I learned of my
Iodine deficiency) my normally thin lips looked like 10 bees had stung them, and my eyes swelled SHUT. My throat got very itchy and I was lucky that was all. Of course, I had taken several antihistimine pills by that time, but I do have to wonder if I can now safely eat shellfish. I am, however, trying to follow the bible more, (and won't go there on this post) but needless to say, I don't believe one needs to eat shellfish anyway. If for no other reason, the oceans are a lot more toxic these days, and shellfish is more expensive than my budget allows.
I do however, use what is called
"detoxified iodine", which is not only electrically charged to a frequency making it more recognizable and absorbable to the body, but is MADE from organic Asian kelp. It's original name was given it "Atomidine" by
Edgar Cayce himself, but modern laws about naming things has prevented man from calling this particular product Atomidine. What is now on the market as "Atomidine" actually has chlorine in it. (One part iodine, three parts chlorine, and 97 parts water, to be exact). Be wary of
modern day Atomidine.
I not only believe that "detoxified iodine" is the real thing, I "
just know it is. I know this in my "heart", and my "gut". I know this in my spirit.
This product is amazing in that a little truly does go a long way. I started out very slow in the beginning, as I learned that increasing too much too quick caused such detoxing that one must back down, or stop altogether, for a little while.
It's true about cycling. One must take some for some days, then stop taking for some days. I have discovered that not only does this help your body "catch up" to the detox issues, but this form of iodine is CUMULATIVE. Cayce also said:
"...for most glands secretions we see the necessary functioning of the gland is iodine, or to put it in common parlance, most glands function as machinery would under oil. The iodine being the oil for the gland, you see?".
I have done Iodoral also now. The detoxified iodine works MUCH better (in my own body, anyway). What Cayce said about oil makes sense. I can see that now. And one knows how good oil works in a car. I now look at iodine as being just as necessary to the body as oil is to a car. Both should be able to be "recyclable" and both needing to be refreshed about every three months or so.
Looking at it THAT way, one could look at water to the body as gasoline is to the car. Both need to be replaced and more is needed ON A DAILY BASIS.
As Cayce would say..."you see?"
