As I wrote about in my post on healing my Hypothyroidism, (Hypothyroid = Fluoride, what you don’t know can hurt you), I found out about iodine in the early days of Dr. Abraham’s research. A few months ago, to deal with some major health issues, e.g. extreme heavy metal poisoning, I started an intensive research program following many different categories that I will cover in future posts.

Right now, I want to talk about a critical component of health that just about everyone is deficient – IODINE.

Back in 2003 or so, when my thyroid was malfunctioning due to fluoride, I had discovered the work of Dr. Abraham which helped solve my problem However, the work was in it’s early stages. It gave me enough information to boost my thyroid but not enough information for better health. Since that time, which has been almost 20 years, regular citizens have done an intensive research program, a real world program, with IODINE and this information is presented in a great work:

The Iodine Crisis: What You Don’t Know About Iodine Can Wreck Your Health

If you read this book and apply the protocols mentioned, it can do amazing things to improve your health.

For myself, almost 20 years ago, even the basic Iodine protocol helped. I knew my problem came from unknowingly consuming a lot of water that was heavily contaminated, on purpose I might add, with Fluoride. What I didn’t know at the time was that Fluoride, and the other halogens of Iodine, operated and stayed in the body, just like the more traditional heavy metals such as lead and arsenic.

A couple of years ago, I inadvertently ended up with a serious case of traditional heavy metal poisoning from a contaminated food source which almost killed me (I will talk about this in a future post)  and I’m not over it yet. So, when I found out that these halogens of Iodine operated and stayed in the body until they were forced out (chelated), The Iodine Crisis book provided an iodine protocol that removes the halogens because iodine serves as a chelator to the adverse halogens which are chlorine, bromine and fluoride.

Due to my accidental heavy metal poisoning from a food source, I am very familiar with the need for chelation. Doing the chelation process for the last year has stopped the heavy metal from killing me, however, now I am dealing with all the damage the heavy metal has done to my body.

The Iodine Protocol is one of the programs I am using to heal the heavy metal damage. In my next post, I will start a series of posts about the critical need for iodine and how we have been poisoned by the halides of Iodine beginning in the 1970s.
