I started taking Lugol's iodine after some abnormal TSH tests. Game changer. I'm not into the theory that 1 thing makes a world of difference, I have found it's usually a confluence of factors or stimuli that yield positive changes in well being, e.g. the world doesn't operaten in isolates. But in this case iodine did, and my brain seemed to work better. Less intrustive thoughts, more relaxed, less fog, better concentration. My .02 cents, Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) is WAY too low. The soil has been ruined and "demineralized", and that has wreaked havoc on the whole eco system.

Brazil nuts are not commercially grown because they are the biggest tallest tree in the rain forest. It towers above all the other trees and takes many many years to grow. They do not get fertilized or sprayed and are still today collected by hand by the native peoples where they grow. Rain Forest has very little nutrients in the soil as it gets washed away by the rain however the massive root system of this tree go way deep collecting natural minerals from deep down including the one it likes most. Selenium. I come from an area with absolutely no selenium in the soil so all our livestock has to be Supplemented with it and all who know about it take it as it is vital.

I am a huge fan of supplemental iodine. However you do need to be mindful that it not only acts as an aromatase inhibitor and it upregulates the expression of certain CYP450 genes that metabolize certain estrogens. This can cause you to be lower in estrogen than you should be. Also, iodine helps the lymphatic system in amazing ways!

Dr. Jorge Flechas spoke about these benefits for his female patients.
