[QUOTE="Anonymon, post: 233614, member: 42608"] I’m familiar with RestartMed and Westin’s work, though I hadn’t read that article on iodine before by him, and just got done reading the Dr Brownstein book on Iodine. Although the detox hypothesis might in theory be okay, personally, I do feel that at least in my case, it probably is more related to something closer to iodine poisoning than a detox. Mainly because I’ve had iron poisoning before from excessive supplementation, and there were similar aspects to it on the negative side of things. If it is more related to that, it’s probably that your body needs to adjust to peeing out any excess iodine, and until it does, you’re pushing it out anywhere you can. I have issues with retaining water, so that probably affects my ability to filter anything out. Either way, there was a lot to like about it, including hair growth which is a tough one for me. I took a break from it, and bought a much lower dose version of it (50mcg per drop) so I can start off a lot lower and see how I do with that and what benefits it might give me. I’ll likely start off with 150mcg per day, which is about the RDA. I do think most people probably are fine with Lugol’s, but would probably recommend starting their dose closer to how Westin does it, which is taking it infrequently. I can’t recall now the amount he uses, but I think he doses once a week, which for some people might be closer to starting off with a drop a week if you’re not going to water it down like Gianluca did. I don’t have the patience to water it down since it stains easily so if I did try Lugol’s again, which I’m sure I will, I’d probably start off with infrequent dosing, which for a lot of people probably would prevent a detox or poisoning phase or whatever’s going on with it if they are seemingly prone to it like me. I’d still rate Lugol’s as very promising for me. Only took a few days off of it to mostly be back to normal. I’m not 100% but I’m probably 80%. Probably better for most people to start off with a drop a week or every few days first if they want to avoid whatever happens when you start. [/QUOTE]
