When nothing else works – try iodine . .

Seems this is so prevalent that NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW OR TO CARE .. .

It is possible that Iodine deficiency could cause:

  • breast or
  • prostate cancer,

as well as be responsible for

  • fatigue,
  • chronic illness, or
  • many other ailments.

During the 19th century, iodine was considered the universal treatment:

“If nothing else works, try iodine” was the adage.

Considering the broad range of symptoms of thyroid deficiency:

  • fatigue,
  • hypertension,
  • depression,
  • hair loss,
  • hoarseness,
  • dry skin,
  • constipation,
  • cold intolerance,
  • concentration difficulties,
  • muscle cramps,
  • menstrual problems,
  • poor memory,
  • inability to concentrate,
  • weight gain,
  • nervousness,
  • infertility,
  • irritability,
  • bone thinning, just to name a few,

No wonder it was promoted as the universal treatment…

“The second largest concentration of iodine in the female body is in the breasts. To give you an idea of how much iodine your body needs, the breasts must have 100 times as much iodine in the blood to have their fill as does the thyroid! The same is true for the other endocrine glands, the prostate, stomach, and white blood cells.”

“Many of us integrative physicians have used iodine for decades to completely quell all symptoms of fibrocystic breast disease and menstrual-associated breast pain.”

“Iodine deficiency could also be the cause of your fatigue, chronic illness, immune defects, and lack of stomach acid.”

“Fatigue — An underactive thyroid typically causes fatigue. Iodine supplementation can quickly activate the thyroid and relieve fatigue. Dr Abraham reports iodine deficiency may harm pituitary-adrenal function in rodents. Your adrenal is essential for energy and stamina.”
…

“Thyroid disease — When there’s not enough iodine to bind with cell membranes, it allows enzymes called peroxidases (which can damage those membranes) to wreak havoc and cause autoimmune disease, such as thyroiditis (Hashimoto’s or Grave’s).”
…

“While iodine will help the thyroid increase the production of hormone where necessary, it also inhibits over-release from the gland by giving thyroid enzymes what they want.

These iodine-seeking enzymes that attack thyroid membranes can be normalized when they get the iodine they need. This old information is terrific news for the many people (usually women) who have been told to have their thyroid removed to end hyperthyroidism.

These draconian measures ensure the patient will have to rely on prescriptive thyroid hormone for the rest of their life.
But iodine can completely solve the problem.”

“Poor digestion — many organs need iodine, but can’t absorb it until the blood measurements reach very high levels. The stomach and salivary glands are two such organs, but they can’t uptake iodine in any significant amounts until the blood level reaches 100 times what the thyroid needs.

Most people do not produce enough stomach acid as they grow older. I firmly believe low gastric acidity can be caused by iodine deficiency, as iodine promotes stomach acidity!”
…

“Breast, ovarian, and skin cysts — In addition to fixing almost all cases of breast cysts, iodine also has a remarkable healing effect on ovarian cysts, and even on skin cysts. (For the latter, I recommend rubbing in iodine right over the cyst.)”
