Iodine depletion in our diets.
Greetings Toddao;
As a novice New Ager I found that it was difficult to meditate without opining my 3rd eye because of calcification of my pineal gland. I had to embark on a detoxification plan to get rid of heavy metals and fluoride that had built up in my system for 67 years. Your two posts on this forum were my triggers. Firstly, its always a great idea to use discernment and to follow up with research, if possible..so hitting the internet, this is what I found:

To start with I purchased a bottle of 369 iodine. When I opened the bag, it came with letter and it went like this;
"From 1801-1820 iodine was made from seaweed. From 1801-1920's it was considered the 1st. treatment for human diseases and the cure for all female cancers/diseases. Women who took plenty of iodine during pregnancy had children with I.Q.'s at least 1-20 points higher than other children. For the past 20+ years iodine has been slowly removed from our foods and replaced with its sister elements bromide and fluorides, and is suggested by some to be the reason for increased deaths worldwide. Soft drinks, breads, milks, etc. have increased fluorides and, sadly, all fluorides "push out" iodine in the body and take its place. Therefore, in theory, humans need iodine now more than any other time in human history. Doctors have noted that where iodine is lacking, MS rates increase in that population. Here is some general information on iodine.

All cities along the Great Lakes have higher rates of hyperthyroidism and also the cities and states that have the highest rates of breast cancer. The day you put a woman on thyroid hormones for the treatment of hyperthyroidism, you literally double the chance of getting breast cancer. If a woman has been taking thyroid hormones for more than 15 years her risk of cancer is 19.6%. In 1924, Akron, Ohio, 56% of the people in Akron had goiters ... and that's the same for any city, in that time period, around the Great Lakes region- Milwaukee, Buffalo, Chicago, and Detroit, probably into Canada too. Dr. marine in Akron, Ohio, studied this problem and found that the incidence of goiter in little boys and girls was 1:1, HOWEVER, when the girls went through puberty it was 6:1. This is because the girl's breast tissue absorbed all the iodine and left virtually none for the thyroid. The United States government started iodizing salt and the incidents of goiters dropped by 1928.

The thyroid only holds 3% of all the iodine in the human body. 70% is in the muscle and fat, 20% in the skin. A lack of iodine to the ovary results in an ovary that sooner or later starts malfunctioning. The absents of iodine in early pregnancy within the first 2/3 months can lead to children with ADD. Iodine in early pregnancy actually helps determine the I.Q. of a child, enough iodine during pregnancy will increase a child's I.Q. by at least 15 points. In China there was a community that had very little iodine in the soil and water, so the Chinese decided to introduce the concept of fluoridating the water. After they put fluoride in the water all of a sudden the pregnant women were giving birth to babies who were severely mentally retarded with very low birth weight. Why? The fluoride competes with the iodine to get thyroid and if you don't have enough iodine in your body, the fluoride will win. In America, they use to put iodine in bread. One slice of bread in the 1960's would have 160 micrograms of iodine but they took iodine out of the bread and substituted it with bromide. More on bromide in a minute.

Iodine had been used to sterilize the udders of cows before they were milked and because the farmers used iodine this way, some of the iodine would go into the milk and the people who drank the milk were getting the benefit of the iodine. Sadly, they stopped using iodine to sterilize the udders. Now 50% of American women cook with salt that has no iodine in it, so now we have no iodine in bread, milk, and very little in salt. This is bad news because iodine supplementation was marginal to begin with! In the bread industry, since they took out iodine, they have been using bromide, which is halogen or halite substance. They put this in bread so that after the bread comes out of the over, the crust is soft. They started using bromide in bread in the late 60's early 70's, and took iodine out and put bromide in. Why is this bad for you? Well, in the 1920's there was a new product on the market called BromoSeltzer. People would take this whenever they had a hangover from drinking too much alcohol.

It turns out if you use too much BromoSeltzer, bromide will build up in the central nervous system and it was causing paranoid schizophrenia in people. You can still go to a medical dictionary and look up the word Bromomania and it will be a description of people who develop a psychosis from presence of bromide in the body. The New England Journal of Medicine stated that between 1920 and 1960, over 20% of the people that were in American psychiatric hospitals were being admitted fro acute paranoid schizophrenia. So, in the 40's and 50's when patients being admitted into hospitals for DT's because of not drinking alcohol, the doctors had to figure out if the person was coming off alcohol withdraw or if it was the Bromide in the BromoSeltzer that was making them act irrationally. This is what you put into your body when you eat commercial breads. In 1965, a new product comes out on the market that was loaded with Bromide, a citrus drink with caffeine added. The labels of some soft drinks say " Brominated Vegetable Oil", well, they put Bromide into these soft drinks to disperse the citric acid that gives some brands its citrus flavor, it is now in sports drinks as well.

A patient of a Doctor who was aware of the affect Bromide has on peoples nervous system had a son who was trying to make it into a high school sports team, he was about 20 lbs overweight, his coach came to him and said he needed to try and loose some weight over the summer and then the coach would see how he looked at the end of the summer--- all summer long this kids mother bought him citrus flavored sports drinks because he was out in the sun practicing and sweating. At the beginning of the school year, the boy comes in for his sports physical and his mother says that he is acting withdrawn, doesn't participate in any school activities, he thinks everybody is out to get him, he complains of stomach pain, decrease in appetite, he's becoming anorexic, has awful bad breath, and had chest pain. It was all from the Brominated Vegetable Oil in the sports drink---he was drinking a gallon a day, all summer long and it had soaked his body with this Bromide!

They gave him iodine to dissolve the Bromide and in a few weeks he was to normal. Iodine is clinically known to help the body get rid of Fluoride, Bromide, and Heavy Metals. Doctors had a test subject that would urinate into a container all day and at the end of the day they would look at what settled to the bottom and there was about a half inch of brown oily sludge. They found out that his favorite pace to eat was a fast food place that served soft drinks with brominated vegetable oil. The oily sludge at the bottom of the jar was bromide from the soft drinks. If you take Bromide and add it to Olive Oil and slowly stir it, it will turn the Olive Oil into a semi-solid blob and that's what happens in the human body, the Bromide goes into the fat stores of the body and actually mixes with the fat and solidifies it. They did a study on kids that drank 5 or more soft drinks a day; they took them off all soft drinks and the kids would loose up to 20 lbs. in a year, just from taking them off soft drinks.

The Japanese eat an average of 13.8 milligrams of iodine a day from sea plants, Americans take in an average of 138 micrograms, not enough! In Japan, men will get prostate cancer, but it usually will not metastasize --- the theory is because of their large intake of iodine it prevents the cancer from growing. If you don't have enough iodine in you body, you won't be able to perspire correctly and perspiring is one way we get rid of toxins. The difference is that Japanese eat ocean plants like seaweed, which are naturally high in plant based iodine.
SUGGESTIONS FOR USE Please start slowly, if you at any time notice any discomfort or ill feelings, discontinue use immediately. You may want to start with only 1 drop every day: you can then experiment upwards or downwards from that amount. Most customers have seen best results at first by placing 1 drop on the skin at the inside of the wrist, 1 drop a day for 5 days, then increasing to 2 drops, you may apply it either to the wrists or even the feet around the ankles, since the skin is thin in these areas.

You can see how long it takes for the yellowish stain on the skin to go away, usually minutes to a few hours. As a rule of thumb, when the iodine stays on the skin for over 24-72 hours, then you have enough iodine in your system, generally speaking. Basically, just expose your system to a steady supply of the iodine and it will go throughout the body and just do what it does best, all by itself! I have heard Doctors in interviews say that they do not know "why" exactly iodine can do so much for human health. Customers in the past that were exposed to food poisoning placed 5-10 drops into an ounce of water and drank it, this apparently killed all the bacteria in the stomach which caused the disturbance in the first place. This would be considered an experimental use. For scars, you can try to apply one drop per day directly to the scar, if it did NOT have any Novocain injected into the site, then it will heal much faster. Novocain disrupts the nerve endings, which makes it harder for the skin to heal naturally."
It's also good to note such info, 369 Iodine is a 1% solution of Iodine with a tincture base. 220 mcg of Iodine per drop.

The best detox pill on the market is Tri-Iodine (5 mg as molecular iodine, 5 mg as sodium iodide, and 2.5 mg as potassium iodide)..this is what I use.
