Terry Naturally Tri-Iodine 12.5 mg - 12500 mcg Iodine, 180 Vegan Capsules - Supports Hormone Balance, Promotes Breast & Prostate Health - Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, Kosher - 180 Servings

It's possible that there's something to this. My friend tried taking one of these capsules every day and noticed a significant improvement in his morning glucose levels. If the capsule is missed or forgotten, the reading the next morning will be backwards. When the doses are resumed, the readings return to normal levels. br>br>If we believe this person's glucose meter readings, iodine supplementation is about five times more effective than sitagliptin, but it's more than 30 times cheaper; however, I'm not a doctor, so don't take my word for it. Especially if you keep meticulous records and have access to a blood glucose meter. For the time being, I'll keep my mouth shut and wait to see how many "not helpful" clicks Merck provides. Other Amazon reviewers may be able to assist in the resolution of this issue.

I've been using this for years and it's made a significant difference in my life. My fibrocystic breasts were extremely painful to touch when I first started. The pain began to fade after a few days and was completely gone after a few weeks. I take one a day with breakfast in the morning; I tried two a day once, but it was too much for my body (probably a detox reaction). For a long time, if I missed even one dose, the pain would start to return, but now I can skip several without noticing. They have made a significant difference in my health.

Terry is naturally tri-colored. Iodine is a fantastic iodine supplement that both my husband and I use on a daily basis. Each capsule has the ideal daily dosage of 12 in it. Iodine is a trace mineral that comes in two forms: elemental iodine and reduced salts known as iodide. This supplement contains both forms of iodine from three different sources - Iodine (from kelp seaweed), potassium iodide, and sodium iodide This is critical because the thyroid prefers iodide, whereas the reproductive tissues prefer iodine. br>br>Iodine is required for thyroid hormone production and function at hormone receptor sites. It's also required for the delivery of nutrients to each of the body's trillions of cells, as well as the removal of toxins via lymph drainage. It protects cells from heavy metals, chemicals, and toxins that are abundant in our environment and in the foods we eat. Our bodies are also shielded from radiation by it. br>br>Antibiotic, antiviral, and antiseptic properties are also found in iodine. Iodine was first used as an antibiotic in the 1800s, and it is still used as a pre-operative treatment by surgeons today. as well as an antiseptic for use after surgery According to the World Health Organization, 72% of the world population is affected by iodine deficiency today. Iodine levels have decreased by 50% in the last 30 years, and in a clinical study of over 5,000 patients conducted by Dr. David Brownstein, more than 2096% of those Obesity, illness, and diseases such as cancer have all increased as iodine deficiency has become more common. On the other hand, the Japanese, who eat an average of 12. 5 mg of iodine per day (from seaweed, seafood, or adding iodine to eggs through the chicken feed) is associated with significantly lower rates of breast, endometrial, and ovarian cancer, as well as fibrocystic breast disease and prostate cancer. Obesity is also less common among them. IODINE DEFICIENCY CAUSES: br>br>REASONS FOR IODINE DEFICIENCY: br>br>1) The foods that contain the most iodine are: Seaweed, seafood (shrimp, cod, sea bass, haddock, and perch), and iodized salt (most of us don't eat seaweed and eat less fish due to mercury contamination). That leaves iodized salt, which we're consuming less of because it's been labeled a risk factor for high blood pressure and heart disease by the medical establishment. We do not get all of the iodine we need from salt in any case because it loses 100% of iodine content after exposure to air for 4 weeks. Excessive fluoride, chlorine, and bromine chemically displace iodine in our tissues, resulting in iodine deficiency. br>br>3) Excessive fluoride, chlorine, and bromine chemically displace iodine in our tissues, resulting in iodine deficiency. Our tap water contains added chlorine and fluoride, which contributes to iodine deficiency when consumed or bathed in. Bromine compounds are used as dough conditioners in the baking industry, so consuming commercially produced bread is a bad idea. Iodine deficiency is also caused by processed bread and baked goods. 4) Goiterogenic foods, such as mustard seeds, peanuts, pine nuts, and RAW cruciferous vegetables from the Brassicaceae family, such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, turnips, kale, kohlrabi, cauliflower, bok choy, and rutabaga, block iodine absorption. Cruciferous vegetables lose their goiterogenic properties when they are cooked or steamed. br>br>5) Antidepressants, such as Paxil and Prozac, can cause iodine deficiency. Antidepressants are linked to an increased risk of cancer, possibly due to the drugs' contribution to iodine deficiency. IODINE DEFICIENCY IS ASSOCIATED WITH: br>br> br>* Fibrocystic breast diseasebr>* Ovarian cysts, nodules, and scar tissuebr>* Reproductive disorders, infertility, menstrual irregularities, and early menopausebr>* Thyroid cancer and nodulesbr>* Cancers such as prostate, breast, uterine, ovarian, testicular, and lung cancerbr>* Goiters, hyperthyroid, hypothyroid, Graves' Disease Immune disorders and diseases, as well as chronic fatiguebr>* Diabetesbr>* Bronchial asthma and lung diseasebr>* Skin disordersbr>* Candida and irritable bowel syndromebr>* Fibromyalgiabr>* Attention deficit disorder and hyperactivitybr>* Mental retardationbr>* Cretinismbr>* Arthritisbr>* Emotional disordersbr>* Possible links to Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis Muscle cramps, lymph gland congestion, weight gain, low blood pressure, cardiac arrhythmia, slow reflexes, poor memory, fuzzy thinking, fluid retention, migraines, constipation, depression, headaches, edema, myalgia and weakness, cold hands and feet and/or cold intolerance, dry skin, and brittle nails, hair loss on the head, body, and brows, cysts of the breast, ovaries, thyroid, and skin TESTING FOR IODINE DEFICIENCY: br>br> IODINE SPOT TEST AT HOME: br>br> Apply a spot of 20 2 inches in circumference of 2% Iodine Tincture (found in the first aid section of the grocery store or pharmacy) on your inner forearm using a q-tip to your cotton swab with a pointed tip Set an alarm to go off every hour on your watch, cell phone, or other device to remind you to check it every hour to see how long it takes for the spot to completely fade away. It will take 24 hours for the iodine spot to fade if your iodine levels are normal. Consider more testing (see urine loading test below) if it disappears in less than 12 hours. NOTE - It's best to apply the iodine spot right after you shower in the morning. Also, water will wash away the iodine spot, so don't wash, swim, or do anything else until the spot has faded. URINE LOADING TEST: BR>BR>URINE LOADING TEST: BR>URINE LOADING TEST: URINE LOADING You can test for iodine deficiency by consuming a large dose of Iodine (50 mg), collecting your urine for the next 24 hours, and having a special laboratory test the iodine% You are deficient if less of what you ate shows up in your urine than what you ate (meaning your body retained the majority of it). Only 2010% and excrete 90% are retained by healthy people. The average American now retains 56% and excretes only 44% which indicates severe deficiency. br>br>WHEN YOU FIRST START TO TAKE IODINE: Because Iodine removes toxins such as lead, mercury, cadmium, fluoride, chlorine, and bromide from the body, you may experience temporary side effects such as fatigue and irritability when taking Iodine capsules. And if you have Candida or Irritable Bowel Syndrome, you may have a die-off. As the fungus dies and is removed from the body, it causes an off response (diarrhea, itching, etc. ). br>br>SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF TOO MUCH IODINE CONSUMPTION: br>Too much iodine can result in an immune response called Immunoglobulin D, as well as toxic symptoms like: Acne, rashes, diarrhea, fever, headache, increased salivation, metallic taste in mouth, nausea, and sneezing are some of the symptoms you may experience. However, the forced excretion of toxic halides like bromide, fluoride, and perchlorate can cause some reactions to high iodine intake.

My doctor recommended iodine because I was experiencing significant breast tenderness/pain, and I noticed a difference in a matter of weeks. I tried a variety of things to help my hormones balance, but I couldn't figure out what was missing. This was the last straw!.

Vegan! My family has been diagnosed with thyroid disease, so taking an iodine supplement is essential; however, the old brand, which we used for over ten years, contains pharmaceutical graze, which includes beetles and insect larvae. So, when we realized we needed a new brand, we looked around and found Terry Naturally, a vitamin brand we'd used on and off for years, and decided to go with it. The 50/50 blend is fantastic; we feel better on it and it's a better price; if you need thyroid support, use this, as well as bovine liver pills and thyroid pills from Ancestral Supplements; we love their clean products.

"Iodine Co-" is almost as good as Terry's. Factors" as a "toolbox" of additional supplements that aid in the iodine's effectiveness. "IODINE: A Guide to Alternative Healing" is a book I would strongly recommend to anyone interested in alternative healing. MD - "WHY DO YOU NEED IT, WHY CAN'T YOU LIVE WITHOUT IT" This book by David Brownstein is a real eye opener. Dr. David's book "OVERCOMING THYROID DISORDERS, 3RD EDITION" is currently on my reading list, and I recently finished "SALT YOUR WAY TO HEALTH, 2ND EDITION" - He's referring to the salt in the sea - WOW, the things our bodies need to function for the barrage of toxins and chemicals in our food and water, no matter how healthy we think we are eating, there are hidden items that we need to be aware of. There is a wealth of information available to assist you in becoming healthier and taking control of your own health.

I was taking a liquid iodine supplement for my thyroid and wanted to switch to a capsule form because it was more convenient. My symptoms returned when I switched to this product, even though I was still taking the same amount of milligrams. I switched back to my old liquid form to make sure it wasn't just that my thyroid had deteriorated even more, and the symptoms went away. Clearly, this product failed to deliver on its promises.

This is a fantastic deal for a mineral that our bodies are deficient in. Since starting to take it, I've noticed a significant difference.
